Hydrography and spatial variability of zooplankton community during spring transition associated with Anti Cyclonic Eddies (ACE) and Cyclonic Eddies (CE) in the south western Bay of Bengal is investigated. In situ data collected on board FORV Sagar Sampada and satellite derived products were used for the study. Physical parameters such as temperature, salinity, and sigma-t in the surface waters showed typical spring condition with almost uniform distribution in the region. However, MLD, ILD and BLT showed noticeable variation between ACE and CE region. The satellite derived SSHA overlaid geostrophic current pattern indicates the piling up of surface view moreĀ»
