Surface water samples were collected in route to and from the Antarctic 

 and areas of open water in the Antarctic. Most of these were 360-ml sam- 

 ples for salinity determinations. Some were collected in ^-gallon quan- 

 tities for the National Institute of Oceanography, Wormley, England, and 

 Institute of Meteorology, Stockholm, Sweden. 



Additional observations taken during DEEP FREEZE 60 included gravity 

 measurements by a Lacoste -Romberg geodetic gravimeter; biological sam- 

 plings, plankton nets and dredge; transparency, black and white Secchi 

 discs; and water color by a modified Forel scale covering the blue-green- 

 yellow color range.
