ABSTRACT 



This atlas contains charts depicting the distribution of physical, 

 chemical, and biological oceanographic properties and associated 

 meterological properties observed during EASTROPAC. EAST 

 ROPAC was an international cooperative investigation of the 

 eastern tropical Pacific Ocean (20"^. to 20°S., and from the west 

 coasts of the American continents to 119° W.) which was intended 

 to provide data necessary for a more effective use of the marine 

 resources of the area, especially tropical tunas, and also to increase 

 knowledge of the ocean circulation, air-sea interaction, and ecology. 

 The Bureau of Commercial Fisheries (now National Marme 

 Fisheries Service) was the coordinating agencv. The field work, 

 from February 1967 through March 1968, was divided into seven 

 2-month cruise periods. During each cruise period one or more ships 

 were operating in the study area. 



On completion of the field work the data seemed loo numerous 

 for a classical data report. Instead, it was decided to produce an 

 11-volume atlas of the results, with 5 volumes containing physical 

 oceanographic and meterological data from the principal partici- 

 pating ships. 5 volumes containing biological and nutrient chemistry 

 data from the same ships, and 1 volume containing all data from 

 Latin American cooperating ships and ships of opportunity. 

 Extensive use was made of a computer and automatic plotter in 

 preparation of the atlas charts. Methods used to collect and process 

 the data upon which the atlas is based are described in detail by the 

 contributors of the following categories of charts: temperature, 

 salinity, and derived quantities; thickness of the upper mixed layer; 

 dissolved oxygen; meteorology; nutrient chemistry; phytoplankton 

 standing stocks and production; zooplankton and fish larvae; 

 micronekton; birds, fish schools, and marine mammals.

ABSTRACT 



This manual includes an introduction on the general biology, an 

 illustrated key, an annotated systematic list, selected bibliog
