Cruise report YALOC '66 : description of the cruise of the R/V Yaquina in the northeastern Pacific Ocean from 20 April to 29 July, 1966
This report is a description of the first extended oceanographic
cruise made by staff of the Department of Oceanography, Oregon State
University, aboard the Research Vessel YAQUINA. The purpose is to
describe the track made good and the observational programs undertaken
for the information of those who may wish to use the data or discuss
the results with the scientists concerned.
The cruise was arranged so that the YAQUINA could participate in
Mohole investigations off Hawaii. Geophysical, chemical, and hydrographic
data were collected en route to Honolulu during May 1966. The
leg from Honolulu to Adak made possible collections of samples of deep
water for studies of its physical and chemical properties and some experiments
to determine productivity. Work near the Aleutian Islands was
principally measurement of gravity and magnetism; hydrographic data
were also collected. Dredging on a seamount and on the deep sea floor
was the major effort in the Gulf of Alaska; hydrographic casts and one
otter trawl were also made. A gravity run into Dixon Entrance, several
trawis, hydrographic stations, and monitoring the Newport line comprised
the work on the leg from Ketchikan to Newport.
The events of the cruise are given in the narrative of the voyage,
written by Dr. Park, who was on board for all parts of the cruise, except
the Mohole work off Hawaii. A brief summary of the studies made and
sampling programs conducted has been written for each area of oceanography
by a member of the scientific party who was on board during the
last leg of the voyage. These summaries have been kept very brief, and
the reader is cautioned that the discussions are by no means comprehensive.
Some results of the hydrographic work analyzed on board ship are
