Abstract

The coastal fish production is stagnating
during the last few years (James et al.
1987). The only way to increase marine fish
production is to exploit the untapped resources
from the deeper parts of the EEZ.
FORV Sagar Sampada carried out trawling
surveys to locate and estimate the abundance
of the deep sea resources, especially the
crustaceans and fishes along the upper continental
slope off K.erala c_ during January-
February 1988. The present paper deals
with some of the important observations in
this survey.
