The Diatoms Collected By The U. S. S. Cacopan In The Antarctic In 1947

---

For investigation of the Diatomaceae, a series of water samples was
collected from the U. S. S. Cacopan by filling a citrate bottle either
with surface water obtained with a bucket or with water obtained
from various depths with Nansen bottles. The positions at which
samples were collected in the Antarctic are plotted on Fig. 1. Of the
main previous Antarctic Expeditions (Challenger, Deutscher
Sudpolar, Valdivia and Discovery) only the Challenger collected
much diatom material on the Pacific and Indian Ocean side of the
Antarctic continent. Five stations were occupied by the Challenger
in this area, but most of the diatom material obtained was from bottom
sediments. The species of diatoms found at each station by the
Cacopan are listed in Table I with notations indicating the relative
abundance of diatoms at each station. Further information on each
station (Depth, Temperature, etc.) is given in the appendix
