in determining phytoplankton productivity. Techniques used are outlined ir 

 Steemann-Nielsen & Jensen (1957) . 



F. Data from the Institut Francaia d'Oceanle at Ncumea (IFO), New Caledonia. 

 The vessel used has always been the ORSOM III of the IFO with Henri Rotschi 

 as chief of the scientific party anr* Michel Angot in charge of the pigment and 

 primary productivity work both in the field and in the laboratory. .Ihe carbon^ 

 1^ laboratory work and the equipment has been provided largely by cooperation 

 with the CSIRO and with the University of Hawaii, At various times, M. 

 Legand and R. Desrosieres have assisted with the field work. Part of the 

 time the primary productivity work was done according to the standard Hawaii 

 technique (Angot_, Doty & Oguri, 1958) _, but perhaps more frequently the pigment 

 and primary productivity measurements have been made tquipment and procedures 

 standard for the CSIRO (Jitts^ 1957). Result^ obtained bj standard Australian 

 technique have been indicated by a "5" in technique column 39.

 part of the Tasman Sea. Ihe data are contained (Angct, l96C) in Institut
