Description Based on the hydrographic data collected on board R. V. Kalava and R. V. Varuna, the vertical distribution
patterns of temperature, densiiy (sigma-0 and dissolved oxygen content of sea water at five places
between Cape Comorin and Mangalore were studied. In the present account an attempt is made to
