Zusammenfassung:Oceanographic observations using a CTD system were made in the western tropical Pacific in the summer of 1988. Warm surface water having a value of above 29 degree C was presented over the whole sea surface. The thermocline with the maximum vertical gradient having a value of 0.17 degree C/m was shallowest near 0.9 degree N. Low salinity lower than 34.50 ppt was presented in the surface mixed layer between 16 degree N and 0.2 degree N.
