A. Data gathered by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research 

 Organization of Australia (CSIRO) . The data have been reproduced from maaus::ri.pt 

 tables of field and laboratory work completed by this organization 3 Cron^ll;:-.^ 

 New South Wales ^ Fisheries and Oceanographic Laboratory under the direction of 

 H. R. Jitts for carbon-14 work. P. S. Davis^ and more recently George Humphrey, 

 director of the laboratory, have been largely responsible for the laboratory 

 aspects of the pigment work. 



A "7" appearing in technique column 39 indicates the Australian (CSIRO) 

 standard technique was used. This incubator method was developed by Jitts 

 and is described in Jitts, (1957) . In this technique, incubation of the samples 

 is in the plexiglass (perspex) samplers, and involves the least manipulation 

 of the water of any of the current techniques. The pigments were determined 

 by a modified Richards & Thompson (1952) method (David, 1957) . Much of the 

 pigment work has been analyzed in reference to different distributional factors 

 (Humphrey, 1960) . 



AOOl . Cruises of the CSIRO vessel DERWENT HUNTER made from November 1957 

 through June 1959, in the Tasman Sea off Sydney, Australia. The data from these 

 specific cruises were obtained during the following months of 1957, 1958, 1959; 

 15 November 1957, 3 February 1958, 5 March 1958, 7 April 1958, 10 June 1958, 

 11 June 1958, 13 August 1958, 14 August 1958, 15 August 1958, 16 October 1958, 

 17 October 1958, 20 December 1958, 2 March 1959, 6 May 1959, 8 June 1959. 



A002 . Cruise DM/60 of the DIAMANTINA made during July, August, and 

 September of 1960 in an area lying between Australia and Indonesia, H. R. 

 Jitts of the CSIRO was responsible for the productivity work for which the 

 standard Hawaii technique was used. The data were processed and computation 

 was completed in the Marine Laboratory of the CSIRO under Jitt's direction. 



A003 . Cruise 1/58 of the QUICKMATCH in March and April 1958. This cruise 

 covered a wide area in the Tasman Sea from Sydney, Australia, southeast to
