oe found in table 1. An additional 14.5 of nocturnal survey 
were conducted (see table 5.) 
Weather data during this survey were recorded on appropriate 
forms ana AD? sheets. In general, light winds and seas predom¬ 
inate;-: a high pressure system in the area was a major influence. 
Thus, i. general, observation conditions were quite similar to 
those on the last EAC cruise, and hence the two can be reasonably 
.ompared. Also diurnal survey was conducted in approximately 
one same areas on both cruises thus allowing further compara¬ 
bility. But, as will be discussed later, there were major differ¬ 
ences in the populations found. , 
Thirty bathothermographs were taken over about 3/5 of the 
grid track at four hour intervals; a damaged cable prevented 
drops over the last portion. 
Flocking 
With the excepxion of a few groups of storm petrels and Red 
onalaropes, flocking activity was not observed during this survey. 
F^cc.ving in the above species wil be discussed in the spec.es 
accounts.

Over previous EAC cruises only one school of feed-tish has 
been roted, During this survey numerous schools of small fish were 
frequ .-ntly noted at night over the western extreme of the southern 
two rniras of the grid. None were seen during daylight hours. It 
woul j seem likely that such an abundance would attract fish-reeding 
biros; but such did not seem to be the case. In fact, fewer fish¬ 
feeding species were noted than on any of the previous surveys, 
little doubt due to the foot thar they have migrated northward.
