Wellington, New Zealand, north to Noumea, New Caledonia, we=t to Brisbane, 

 Austral ia^, returning south to Sydney, 



A004. Cruise 1/60 of the GASCOl'NE in February and March, 1960. Thio 

 cruise worked east from Sydney to Auckland, New Zealand northeast to Suva^ 

 Fiji;, northwest to lO'* South Latitude directly north of New Caledonia, 

 continuing to about 25" South Latitude and then southwest to Sydney. Pigment 

 measurements and carbon-1^ determination of productivity were made. 



A005 . Cruise 2/60 of the GASCOYNE in March and April. • 1960. This cruise 

 worked east from Sydney to south of New Caledonia In the Tasman Sea; thence^ 

 north through the Coral Sea, the Papuan and New Hebrides areas and south back 

 through the Coral Sea along the Australian coast to Sydney. Pigment measure- 

 ments were made regularly with carbon-1^ measurements of productivity. 



V^, Observation made aboard the MAGGA PAN while en route to the Antarctic 

 on a relief trip^, in January - March 1959. N Dyson was responsible for the 

 collection of the samples. The method used for measurement of the CO^ uptake 

 was described by Jitts (1957) . Pigment analyses were carried out using the 

 method given by Humphrey (1960) . Primary productivity was measured in milli- 

 grams of carbon assimilated per cubic meter per hour, and pigment concentrations 

 were given in milligrams per cubic meter. 



B. Cruises of the vessel, VIIYAZ sponsored by the Institute of Qcean- 

 ology of the Academy of Sciences of the U, S. S, R, The techniques followed 

 have been described by Sorokin (1958)^ Vinberg et al. (1960) and by Koblentz- 

 Mishka (1960) among others. The dates and personnel responsible for the 

 productivity work of the cruises in the North Pacific are as follows t-
