World Ocean Atlas, Vol. 2: Atlantic and Indian Oceans

This review describes Sergei G. Gorshkov’s World Ocean Atlas, Volume 2, covering the Atlantic and Indian oceans. Its format matches the Pacific volume, with atmospheric, oceanographic, and navigational information. The reviewer praises its cartographic quality and usefulness for general reference and interdisciplinary studies, but notes that missing data sources, interpolation procedures, and calculation methods limit detailed research. The improved English pamphlet still requires fuller technical documentation and detailed keys.
