APPENDIX C 



STATISTICAL SUMMARY OF PHYSICAL OCEANOGRAPHIC 



DATA BY SEASON AND AREA 



Data from the National Oceanographic Data Center was analyzed on the Naval Un- 

 dersea Center UNIVAC 1110 computer to obtain maximum, mean, minimum and standard 

 deviation of temperature (°C), salinity (parts per thousand), and sigma-t (density). The 

 number of hydrocasts analyzed is given. Areas are shown in Figure 1 and B.I. 



Data can be utilized for future modeling programs for OFEF, such as growth simula- 

 tion, sinking rate and structural and total farm buoyancy models.
