During February and March of 1977 a major geochemical, biological and geophysical
survey of the Persian Gulf and adjacent waters was carried out on
R/V ATLANTIS II, Cruise 93, Legs 17 and 18. It is the purpose of this report
to present the chemical oceanographic data obtained, together with a documentation
of the analytical techniques and a simple discussion of the major features
observed. Of the 54 hydrographic stations (ATLANTIS II, Stations 2357-2410)
occupied during Leg 17, 45 may be said to be in the Persian Gulf proper, the
remainder being in the Gulf of Oman and the northwestern Arabian Sea.
