Locations are given as the mid-point of grids approximately 20 minutes in latitude by 30 minutes in longitude. Analysis methods: ----------------- Salinity samples are analysed immediately after returning to th lab in a modified Wenner-Smith-Soule conductivity bridge. The accuracey of the salinity analyses is +-0.01 ppt. References: 1.
