Abstract:
This item consists of station data by Charles Branch Wilson from Cruise VII of the Carnegie during 1928-1928. Localities include but may not be limited to areas within the Pacific Ocean. Large charts of station numbers and copepod species are listed out with data. Some handwritten station information is on the backs of these sheets. There are also typed station data sheets which may include any or all of the following: coordinates, date, locality, bottom depth, depth of tow (m.), temperature (C), salinity (0/100), density, phosphates (mg/m^3), hydrogen ion pH, volume of tow (cm^3), length of tow (miles), and number of species. Copepod species are then listed out and data is provided for each and there are additional remarks on the collecting procedure and situation.
