Description:
The main aim of the "Atlantische Kuppenfahrt" of RV "Meteor" during the first half of 1967 was to carry out biological investigations on the large submarine seamounts off the Portuguese and West-African coast, the Josephine-Bank and the Great Meteor-Seamount. The three main subjects of interest were:
a) the fauna of these isolated seamounts,
b) the influence of the seamounts on the dayperiodical migration of the deep scattering layers (DSL),
c) the relations between neuston and plankton of the euphotic zone.
The present numbers 7 and 8 of the "Meteor Forschungsergebnisse" contain two reports of working groups "Benthos" and "Plankton" as well as four special contributions to the subjects mentioned before.
