EARS I Plankton Analysis.

Abstract

This is the fifth of a series of memoranda dealing with the results of EARS cruise I (28 October - 13 December 1966). One of the major objectives of the EARS cruise was the investigation of volume reverberation over a large geographical area. Geographical locations of stations can be found in USL Tech Memo 2211-58-67. In the study of volume reverberation, both acoustical measurements were made and biological samples taken at each station. In addition, other oceanographic parameters such as temperature, bathymetry, optical transparency, and sound velocity were also measured. The biological data are reported here.
