The first phase of this process was the comparison of statistical parameters from analyses carried out by degree of latitude, cognizant of the summer collection period of the 1996 cruise. The second phase was a closer examination of instrument differences and how these might influence current selection criteria in statistical analysis. The final phase has been the consolidation of further data from 1976 and 1991 to permit the comparison of the 1996 dataset with earlier data from similar data collection areas in the same season.
