Abstract

Estimates of the species diversity and spatial heterogeneity of the species composition of the nekton community of the Sea of Okhotsk are given. The estimates vary widely both in space (depth and area) and in time (daily, seasonal, and interannual scales). Diagrams of the spatial distribution of these parameters are given.
