TZCF Oceanographic Survey (SE1505). Oceanographic data were collected along the 159W and Meridional from 26° 30'N-32° 30'N. CTD casts were conducted at predetermined stations. CTDs were equipped with oxygen sensors and fluorometers, and chlorophyll and nutrients were measured at discrete depths. Biological backscatter was monitored using the multifrequency EK60 echosounder system operating at 38, 70, 120, and 200 kHz.
