Description The inter-seasonal oscillation of the deoxygenated layer off the Kerala-Kamataka Coast
and its encroachment to shallower regions of the shelf due to upwelling and its effects on
both demersal and pelagic fisheries of the region were studied in detail. The results in broad, indicated that the oxygen depletion worked out differently on pelagic and demersal groups of fishes
stressing the need for studies of tolerance limits of different species of fishes for deoxygenation of
waters and the toxic effects of bacteria on fishes, as upwelling areas are known for heavy bacterial loads.
