Abstract

Using bathythermographs, the sea temperature was studied at 37 stations and to a depth of 900 feet during a cruise from Visakhapatnam around Ceylon to Cochin. Vertical temperature cross sections have been constructed for 2DegreeF. intervals. The results were compared with those of Raghu Prasad who recently made a study up to 200 feet in Bay of Bengal. Detailed discussion of structure is presented.
