Taking Deep Sea Temperatures with Bathythermograph. Donald C. Bailey, Chief Aerographer's Mate, USCG, 32, native of Bellaire, Michigan, retrieves a bathythermograph instrument for recording deep sea temperatures during an oceanographic survey of the Coast Guard icebreaker NORTHWIND. Chief Bailey was a working member of an oceanographic team during the NORTHWIND's surveys of the Oyashio Current, East Siberian Sea, Northern Bering Sea and other areas during the summer 1962 Bering Sea Patrol. The data collected will provide important information on the development of marine life which is important to the Alaskan fisheries. The 269-ft. Coast Guard icebreaker NORTHWIND is based at Seattle and performs the summer Bering Sea Patrol annually, as well as other missions into the Alaskan and Arctic waters. During the summer Bering Sea Patrol she carries out in addition to oceanographic surveys the health mission phase of the patrol in which she delivers dental and medical aid to natives in isolated villages along the Alaskan coast. She also carries supplies to the far northern stations and other chores are included in her schedule.
