| During the fourth session of the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission's Regional Committee for the Co-operative Investigations in the North and Central Western Indian Ocean (IOCINCWIO) held in Mombasa, Kenya in May 1997, a project proposal entitled "Sea Level data and Information in the IOCINCWIO region" was submitted and endorsed. Subsequently the Kenya Marine & Fisheries Research Institute (KMFRI) and the Institute of Marine Sciences of the University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania prepared a detailed proposal which was approved for funding by IOC within the framework of the IOC-Sida-Flanders Marine Science programme. |

| The biogenic assemblage and hydrodynamic settings of the tidally dominated reef platform sediments (TDRPS) east of the Zanzibar channel were investigated in order to characterise the carbonate sediments. Benthic foraminifera were found to be the most important group both in terms of average abundance (> 60 % by weight) and also in terms of spatial distribution with ommon occurrence in all sediments samples. Pelecypods with an average abundance of 8 % were slightly less widely distributed. The remaining groups occurred at lower average abundance and less frequently in the sediments. Current measurements indicated that the maximum current speed is higher during spring than during neap tides. The direction is phase-dependent with flood tidal current... |
