SOND Cruise 1965 aboard the R.R.S. ‘Discovery’ afforded the opportunity for short-term estimation of the penetration of daylight at midday into three regions of the eastern North Atlantic, evaluation of the fluctuations in the character of noonday light at depth in a restricted area over a 2-month period, and a determination of the penetration of moonlight in this area at the full of the moon.
