Dissolved Mercury and total cholorophyll concentrations from the surface waters between 16^00 and 20^30N (upto 1000m depth zone) were estimated from the samples collected on board FORV Sagar Sampada during October, 1988. The dissolved mercury levels showed an average value of 1.04 mg/l, ranging from 0.3 to 2.2 mg/l and the total chlorophyll to 0.423 mg/m varying from 0.120 to 1.149 mg/m. Mercury concentrations in the presently reported area is within the tolerance limit but lie well above the risk concentration levels. The high levels of mercury observed can be attributed to the discharge from the major rivers adjoining the coast.
