Distribution of dissolved oxygen. Section off Sylvia Hill, 10-11 March 1950, survey I. Positions of stations are shown in Fig. 1. Here, even with a recorded phytoplankton population of more than io7 cells (Table 14) the surface- water was only 5-8% saturated with oxygen (cf. Steeman-Nielsen, 1957, p. 75). A comparison of the oxygen sections with those of temperature and salinity shows that the low oxygen content exhibits features of distribution similar to those of the upwelling water. Therefore.
