| Abstract |
The inshore and creek waters around Mombasa Island are being studied intensively by the plankton research group of the Kenya Marine and Fisheries Research Institute attached to the Kenya-Belgium Project in Marine Sciences based in the Mombasa Laboratory. Some of the results have already been reported. In August 1986, I submitted an MSc thesis entitled "The Composition, distribution and abundance of near-surface zooplankton in Tudor Creek, Mombasa Kenya," in part fulfillment of the MSc Hydrobiology degree of the University of Nairobi. The study set out to determine the seasonal and diel cycles of zooplankton in Tudor Creek, in relation to the prevailing hydrographic conditions. |
