Abstract

Studies on the distribution of temperature and salinity in the Visakhapatnam harbour during the months of November-December 1966 and June-July 1967, showed marked seasonal variations. In winter both the temperature and salinity values are low throughout the depth column, while in late summer there is a significant increase in their values. The effect of tide and rainfall on the hydrological parameters has been discussed.
