Synopsis

Original research by physical, biological, chemical, and geological oceanographers is described in this work. There are also valuable reviews dealing with the way in which physical, chemical, and biological aspects of the oceans can contribute to their fertility. With the emphasis being on South American waters, consideration is naturally given to up-dwelling, eddies, nutrient-rich areas, primary production, biomass, and the importance of trace elements, both from field observations and laboratory experiments.
