Abstract

Original logbook of the Albatross, Hyd 3366 to 3404, dr 3538 to 3545, 9 to 22 August 1893. Data recorded include survey and hydro number (no.), date, machine, turns, correction, depth, shot or lead, bottom, bottom temperature, number of thermometer, correction, corrected temperature, air temperature, surface temperature, drift, trawl or dredge, sounding wire readings, dredge rope readings, serial temperatures, and general remarks. Localities are not listed in this volume, but the albatross was probably near the Aleutian Islands in the Bering Sea (based on the history of the ship's activities). Some notes on specimens (fish, crustaceans, mollusks and other marine life) collected are included.
