TRACK CHARTS, BATHYMETRY, AND LOCATION OF OBSERVATIONS, ATLANTIS II CRUISE NO. 11, NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN JUNE 8, 1964 - AUGUST 8, 1964.

Abstract

This report contains charts of Cruise 11 of ATLANTIS II in the North Atlantic Ocean. There are 58 charts plotted on a Mercator Projection (scale 1 degree longitude equals 4 inches) showing the track of the entire cruise, except for special surveys. All types of observations made during the cruise are noted by suitable symbols or legends along the ship's track. The location of special surveys are shown. Charts show special observations in the Puerto Rico Trench and during Deepscan Survey. The bathymetry during the surveys is shown. Soundings are read at equal time intervals, usually every five minutes, and at each break in slope. They are written along the ship's track as often as space permits. (Author)
