In the central Indian Ocean a different scenario was found. Figure 8 depicts the variation of DMS in the central Indian Ocean observed during the INDOEX cruises of 1998 and 1999. High DMS concentrations (0.1-13.9 nM) were observed between 5°S and 15°S in 1999. These were observed as pockets between surface and 75 m with detectable concentrations down to 100-150 m. While away from these latitudes viz. between 0° and 5°S, and...
