✦ Synopsis

The hydrographical features and the inshore plankton of the northern part of the Bay of Bengal was studied from the Balasore coast . The hydrology is mainly governed by the monsoons and river systems flowing into the bay . The surface temperature showed a bimodal pattern with a summer and autumn maximum . The salinity was below the oceanic average with the lowest value during October . The coastal water was found to be rich in nutrients, with peak values during the southwest monsoon . Three phytoplankton blooms followed by zooplankton maxima were observed between early spring and late fall .

## Abstract Estimates of the surge generated by a model storm impinging on three coastal areas of north Bay of Bengal are presented. A linear shallow‐water long‐wave model was used to evaluate the surge. Surge amplitudes were computed for different values of storm intensity and speed. The effect of
