Abstract

Study of the plankton of the inshore waters of the Gulf of Mannar was
started in 1950 as a part of the programme of work carried out at the Central
Marine Fisheries Research Station. As plankton forms directly or indirectly
the food of fishes the primary object of this investigation is to get a general
picture of the changes in the total plankton concentration, as indicated by
fluctuations in the net-plankton volume, as well as the plankton compositidn
and its relation to local fisheries.
