This report comprises a single table giving hydrographic data obtained by the crew of the steamer Albatross during cruises made between October 16, 1907 and May 4, 1910 (from San Francisco and back) using Manila as a base. The steamer traveled to the Philippines by way of Midway Islands and Guam. The crew studied primarily the waters of the Philippines, but data were collected during visits to Sandakan in Borneo, Hong Kong, Indonesia, and Formosa (Taiwan). Data are given for the following: station number, position, chart, date, time of day, depth, character of bottom, temperatures (air, surface, and bottom), water density, apparatus, trial depth and duration, drift direction and distance, and remarks.
