Abstract
An attempt has been made to study the energy content distribution in the suspended
particulate matter of Netravathi-Gurpur estuary. Hydrological parameters and nutrient
content exhibited seasonal variations. Suspended particulate matter gradually increased from
January onwards till May at all the stations. The higher particulate matter concentration
of 218 mg. I"1 was reported in the month of December. The energy content of detrital matter
was less during June to September in spite of greater concentration.
