Excerpt from Oceanographic Observations on the "E. W. Scripps" Cruises of 1938 Point Conception and outside a line from Point Conception passing west of San Nicolas Island. The greatest difficulties were encountered dur ing Cruise 11 when, in ten days, only two lines of stations could be completed owing to bad weather and when the time available was too short to make it possible to continue the program. Four or five of the staff members or assistants at the Scripps Institution took part in each of the cruises. These men and four of the ship's crew divided the day into six - hour watches. The stations were therefore occupied all day and night, and work went on continually during the cruise. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
