Abstract

The Vembanad Lake and its aonnccted backwater system around Cochin are well known rs the nursery groundsfk %he commercially important fishcry resources of this area. This account embodies the results of studies on the environmental parameters of the estuarine system around Cochin extending over an area of 300 sq. km. Observations were made on the hydrography, primary and secondary productions. The relative influence of the environmental factors like, temperature., salinity, dissolved oxygen and nutrients on the plankton. production is interpreted from the correlation coefficients.
