Abstract

This volume logs locality and time-date information for BT [bathythermograph] and salinity stations on the Marshall and Gilbert Islands trip in October and November 1964. Fields include station number, date, time, lat., and long. Station numbers span from 1 to 109. Station localities are on the Pacific Ocean in an area approximately bounded by 0° to 21° N and 158° to 180° W. A note on the cover indicates that plankton stations are in the back of the volume; a tabbed page near the back lists two stations, with lat. and long. provided for one of them.
