The report contains charts and cruise summary of CHAIN Cruise 60 in the North Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico. There are 39 charts plotted on a Mercator Projection (scale 1 degree longitude equals 4 inches) showing the track of the entire cruise. All types of observations made during the cruise are noted by suitable symbols or legends along the ship's track. Soundings are read at equal time intervals, usually every ten minutes, and at each break in slope. They are written along the ship's track as often as space permits. All soundings are based on a sound velocity of 4800 fathoms/sec. and are corrected only for depth of transducer. (Author)
