Oxygen concentration and rate of change of oxygen were measured using the Unisense Oxygen Microsensor System. Water from different depth was taken from CTD attached niskin bottle. Measurements were conducted in 2 ml vials provided by Unisense and lasted for a minimum of two minutes after a stable rate was achieved. The sampling interval was 6 seconds. Transport containers, tubes and vials for measurements were covered with light proof black foil for dark-measurements.

Zooplankton samples were collected daily at the PAP site, using a Multinet of the type Midi with 50 µm nets. 5 depth strata (1000-500, 500-300, 300-100, 100-50 and 50-0 m) were collected at each sampling. The samples were preserved in 2% borax bufferred formalin. Zooplankton were identified on a species / genus level including different life-stages and eggs; at least 400 individuals were counted for each sample. When present, 10 individuals of each species and life-stages (for copepods) were measured for their prosome or total length.

In the early part of 1899 the U.S.S. Nero was dispatched from San Francisco to survey a route for a telegraph cable between the United States, the Philippines Islands and Japan. Concurent with meteorological and oceanographic observations, closely spaced samples of bottom material were systematically sampled. They have been carefully accounted and described by James M. Flint in this volume. On the way, numerous submarine peaks were discovered. During this voyage U.S.S. Nero also took a sounding in the area of the Challenger Deep, recording a depth of 5269 fathoms (9636 m), the greatest depth recorded at that time. Carefull study of the deep-sea deposits have also revealed a number of manganese nodules and encrustations as well as micronodules.
