The International North Pacific Fisheries Commission,established in 1953 by the International Convention for the

High Seas Fisheries of the North Pacific Ocean, coordinatesthe research of the member nations: Japan, Canada, and the

United States. The resulting investigations provide data to

the Commission for use in carrying out its duties in connec-tion with fishery conservation problems in the North PacificOcean. Publication of this scientific report has beenapproved by the United States Section of the Commission.

ABSTRACT

Oceanographic observations tabulated from the files of the U. S.

Fish and Wildlife Service and from the official logs of the U. S. CoastGucird Tug Redwing present values of temperature, salinity, density,dynamic heights, and dissolved oxygen at 128 stations, current measure-ments at 29 stations including 4 tidal cycles, and descriptions of thebottom from samples at 56 stations. Several horizontal and verticalsections of temperature, salinity, and density have been constructed to

show the gross features of the oceanographic conditions in the easternsection of Bristol Bay, Alaska.

INTRODUCTION

This report supplements currentinvestigations of the distribution ami

migration of salmon in the North PacificOcean and the Bering Sea. Data from the

field logs kept during the oceanographicwork of the Bureau of Fisheries in BristolBay in August and September 1938 have beenanalyzed and tabulated. The results ofexploratory fishing in the area during1939-41 have been published by Barnaby —

'

.

The 1938 ocejinographic studiesusing State Department funds were plannedto provide information on the movement ofsalmon in the ocean, but the time availablefor these studies was limited. According-ly, since a knowledge of the oceanographyof the area was considered essential, an

oceanographic data survey was conductedfollowing a program plcuined by Dr. T. G.

Thompson of the University of Washington.Observations were made aboard the U. S.

Coast Gu£ird Tug Redwing equipped to make

hydrographic casts, measure currents, and

obtain bottom samples.

Grateful acknowledgement is madeto the Commandeint, U, S. Coast Guard, forloaning the official logs of the U. S.

Coast Guard Tug Redwing and to Joseph T.

Barnaby of the U. S. Fish and WildlifeService for describing procedure and de-tails not recorded in the field logs.

The Redwing was a steam-drivenvessel with a hull of wood and steel, mea-suring in length 187 feet 10 inches, beam35 feet 6 inches, draft 12 feet 4 inches,and displacing 1,210 tons.

OBSERVATIONS

Stations

Sampling stations were located on a

grid which covered and surrounded BristolBay (fig. 1). The grid was bounded on the

northwest by a line between Nunivak Island

and the Pribilofs sind then generally by the

thousand fathom curve to 170° W. north ofthe Aleutian Chain and to the ShumaginIsland area south of the Chain. The grid,

composed of 17 perpendicular sections and

20 parallel lines relative to the Chain,

would have provided a complete coverage of

the area of investigation: the sections,

set 20 miles apart, consisted of two rows

of stations at 10-mile intervals, the rows

also 10 miles apart; the lines were also

set 20 miles apart but consisted of onlyone row of stations at the ssune interval.

Although effort was made to occupythe exact locations of the stations as laid

out, the almost continuous inclement weatherand short working season necessitated manydeviations from the original plan. Duringthe 4- week season in 1938, August 6 to Sep-tember 7, only the first four sections andparts of five of the lines were completedin inner Bristol Bay. Thus, we have renum-bered the station positions according to

the consecutive hydrographic casts, whichmaintain the continuity of the oceanographicobservations. The Redwing was anchored onnearly every station until August 24 (Sta-tion 67); thereafter the vessel driftedduring the hydrographic casts.

At the beginning of the cruise, the

sampling routine at each station generallyrequired an hour when all three observationswere made: hydrographic cast, currentmeasurement, bottom ssimpling. Later in thecruise only the hydrocast was tjiken whichreduced the time on each station to about20 minutes.

Hydrographic Casts

Reversing water bottles were cast at

the surface, 5 and 10 meters, and 10-meterintervals therearfter to the bottom; occa-sionally the final spacing was only 5 meters.Each water bottle carried one protectedthermometer.

Samples were drawn for analysis ofchJorinity and dissolved oxygen at all depths.

Bottom Samples

Bottom samples were obtained at sta-tions 1-15, 17, 18, 22-28, 30, 31, 46, 47,

and 60 with an Ekman dredge modified byadding bars of metal to increase its weightand stability (fig. 2). Descriptions of

the bottom at these locations are listedunder the respective station headings.

Current Measurements

Currents were measured at the surfaceby drift stick observed from the anchoredvessel and at 5 meters and the bottom byEkman or Gurley-Price current meter at mostof the stations from 1 to 33. In addition,weather permitting, measurements were madeat approximately 2-hour intervals for par-tial or complete tidal cycles at stations11, 29, 30, and 31. Only drift stick obser-vations were made from stations 37 to 66.

Field logs indicated the direction ofthe current at 5 meters, but these arequestionable becaiuse of the magnetic influ-ence of the ship's hull. Compass deviationsup to 80° were reported when the Ekman meterwas held above the water, parallel to thevessel. Conversion from magnetic to truedirection was made by applying 19° £. varia-tion.

Some data from the Gurley-Price meterwhich were recorded as revolutions perminute were converted from a graph of RPMvs velocity constructed from complete exper-imental data.
