Remarks on the poregoing Station Lists. 
In the foregoing account of the scientific work carried out, and of the general results 
obtained, at each of the Challenger observing stations at sea, no mention has been made 
of a large number of observations recorded during the early part of the voyage in the 
note books, as these had become obsolete in the light of subsequent knowledge accjuired 
during the cruise. Could the various problems regarding oceanic phenomena have been 
viewed through the experience gained during the voyage and subserj^uently, many of the 
preceding descriptions would certainly have been much more complete, for fuller details 
might frequently have been furnished concerning many matters which did not at the 
time appear of great importance. 
It must be remembered that the exploration of the deep sea was in its infancy at Preliminary 
the outset of the Expedition. The work was almost entirely new to the naval ofiicers •jhe^Chall^^g'^ 
and the members of the civilian staif. It took several months to test the various 
appliances and instruments, to settle the methods of observation, to arrange the best wav 
of recording the different results, and to apportion the work among the members of the 
scientific staff. As time went on, the proceedings of the ship, and the operations on
