*COMMENTS

    Sample collection methods:
    --------------------------
    Sea Water Temperature:
    - Reversing thermometers mounted on bottles.
    Salinity:
    - Collected in bottles.
    Dissolved Oxygen:
    - Collected in bottles.
    Reactive Nutrients (Phosphate, nitrate, silicate):
    - Collected in Van Dorn samplers (productivity casts) or bottles
    (hydrographic casts).
    Biological and Productivity:
    - Collected in Van Dorn samplers.

    Analyzes methods:
    -------------------------
    Temperatures at depth were measured by deep-sea reversing thermometers of
    German (Richter and Wiese) and/or Japanese (Yoshimo Keiki Co.) manufacture.
    Two protected thermometers were used on all bottles, and one unprotected
    thermometer was used on each bottle at depths of 300 m or greater. The
    accuracy of protected reversing thermometers is believed to be +-0.02C.

    Salinity determinations were made at sea with either a Bissett-Berman Model
    6220 lab salinometer. Accuracy using duplicate determinations is estimated
    to be +-0.003 ppt.

    Depth determinations were made using the "depth difference" method
    described in the U.S.N. Hydrographic Office Publication No. 607 (1955).
    Depth estimates have an approximate accuracy of +-5 m for depths less than
    1000 m, and +-0.5% of depth for depths greater than 1000 m.

    The dissolved oxygen analyses were done in the shipboard laboratory by a
    modified Winkler method (Carpenter, 1965).
