This report contains the biological (including fishing) and oceanographic data collected in the central North Pacific during the July-September 1958 period from the U.S. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries research vessel Hugh M. Smith and the M/V Paragon. The latter made a commercial-scale gill-net survey for albacore under a contract with the Bureau. Scientists and crew aboard the former collected oceanographic, biological, and fishing data to permit a comparison of conditions in 1958 with those of previous years. The major effort of both vessels was in the area between 155° and 175° W. longitude and from 41° to 48°N. latitude.

Excerpt from Oceanographic Observations, North Atlantic Ocean Station Bravo, 5630 N., 5100 W: October 1966-October 1967 The 400 meter temperature also has a pat tern, but not quite the same as the upper lev els. The 400 meter level descends to a mini mum temperature C) in April, and then increases gradually. At the end of December its temperature is higher than that in the upper levels. It then decreases and continues in the same general pattern. The vertical salinity envelopes are presented in figures 22 - 30. As shown in figure 22, the surface salinity during October 1966 ranged from to with the halocline situ ated between 100 and 300 meters. Below this level there was an inversion extending down to about 600 meters of about meters. Below the inversion the gradual increase in salinity with depth continued.
