Summary: | During the relief cruise of the FUJI to Syowa Station, Antarctica, from November 1976 to April 1977, the chlorophyll-α contents in the surface water were measured at 150 stations as a part of the routine observations of marine biological program of the 18th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition. The chlorophyll-α distributions were generally similar to those noticed in the previous observations. The maximum value was observed in the pack ice area of Prince Olav Coast, Antarctica (2.40 mg chl-α/m^3). The high values were also seen in the Celebes Sea, Makassar and Malacca Straits. |
