The work was performed in accordance with a broad complex program designed for the study of plankton, bottom-dwelling invertebrates and fish of the continental shelf and of abysmal depths; collections and observations of birds, seals and cetatians, surface and fresh-water flora and fauna were carried out on a more limited scale; parasitological and microbiological investigations and determinations of diurnal production of organic matter on the basis of radioactive carbon were performed during some of the cruises.
