Abstract
Total suspended solids (TSS), dissolved oxygen (DO) and dissolved inorganic nutrient concentrations [ammonium (NH4), nitrite (NO2), nitrate (NO3), phosphorus (PO4) and silicate (SiO4)] were measured in offshore sites covered by the first Scientific Expedition to the Straits of Malacca or SESMA 1 cruise. Both TSS and DO showed striking differences between nearshore and offshore sites.
