Intercepts (at 1949), slopes, intercept weights (l/variance of inter- 

 cept), and slope weight (l/variance of slope) used to derive the 

 weighted average intercept and the weighted average slope. These 

 statistics are based on the intercept and slope of linear regressions 

 of average CPUE on year computed for peak fishing months and 

 IVIarsden squares within the Japanese North Pacific albacore longiine 



ground 



Indices of magnitude of deviations from long-term trend obtained by 

 approximate integration of the deviations shown in figure 6 for De- 

 cember, January, February, and March of each year, 1948-61 



Page 



Frequency of maximum and minimum values of moments, standard 

 deviations, and correlation coefficients for effort, catch, and CPUE 



for each month during the 1949-61 period 16 



Number of months (October-March) that the two-dimensional first 

 moment was either to the north or south, or east or west of the 



general mean position and X^ tests of significance 21 



Position of longitudinal and latitudinal first moments at the beginning 

 of December and at the end of March for each year during the study 

 period. The average movement per day was calculated by converting 

 the December-March differences into miles and dividing by 120 22
