region and back to Honolulu, during December, 1956, James laughn vac field 

 party chief and Eugene Makamura was responsible for the productivity work. 

 Standard Hawaii techniques for pigment and productivity measurement were used 



^038 , Cruise 38 of the HUGH M. SMITH ; January - March 195? went southeast 

 from Hawaii to east of the Marquesas returning to Haw^aii via the Society Islands 

 and the Marquesas, Everett C. Jones, field party chief, and John W. Van 

 Landingham^ both of the U, S. Fish and Wildlife Service, were responsible 

 for the field work. Cruise 38 is interesting because of a mechanical difficulty 

 that caused the vessel to drift for over two weeks from January 31 tc February 

 19 in calm weather so that the daily sampling,, insofar as the temperature- 

 salinity curves can be relied upon to indicate homogeneity, was from the same 

 water mass, about 14° South Latitude and 110" West Longitude, The hydrography 

 and other information pertinent to this cruise have been published by the U. S. 

 Fish and Wildlife Service., (Wilson & Rinkal^ 195*') » Standard Hawaii techniques 

 were used throughout. 



4046 . Cruise 46 of the HUGH M„ SMITH . Field observations were carried 

 out by James W, McGary^; field party chief from the U, S. Fish and Wildlife 

 Service, and Robert K. S. Lee from the University of Hawaii. The cruise 

 crossed the transition 2one between the sub-tropical and the sub-arcc;ic waters 

 north of Hawaii several times towards the end of August and at the beginning 

 of September 1958, as described in the preliminary publi3hed report of the 

 cruise, (McGary & Graham, 1960) . 



Experiments were made at different latitudes by collecting and .sampling 

 at intervals from carboys of water carried on deck. These measurements are 

 indicated by a "2" in technique column 39. Five in situ experiments were dene 

 at different stations, the results of which are indicated by a "6" in technique 

 column 39. These were the only regular variations from the standard Hawaii 

 technique. An asterisk ("''''") to the right of column 39 indicates a questionable 

 productivity value.
