 note = {The mixing stages of water masses in the western Equatorial Pacific are examined by the aid of T-S curves for 370 stations. The original water types related to the region under consideration are determined from materials excluding those of stations in an area between 13°N and 3°S. T-S curves for stations located between 13°N and 3°S can be classified into five groups according to the pattern or mixing stage, corresponding to five geographical divisions nearly parallel to the latitude. The mixing ratio between water types in five divisions are determined. The boundary zone between the water masses from the north and the south is on ca. 6°N, where salinity is roughly homogeneous with depth. The latitudinal change of T-S curves are shown by the aid of average curves for every two degrees of latitude (Fig. 6).},
