ERRATA in FIRST PRINTING and corrected in SECOND PRINTING

p.7 Both figures are for temperature, the left figure is 
    an expanded scale of the right figure. The salinity
    is missing.
p.58 In eqns (4-3a,b), replace g with g/(rho sub zero).
p.94 In eqn (6-24b), the left side should be preceded by 
     a minus sign.
p.107 In Prob. 6-6, the right side should be preceded by
      a minus sign.
p.155 In eqn (9-22a) kz should be kx.
p.205 In Table 11-3. The dimension (10-4s-1) should
      move left one column.
p.232 Delete "and Absolute Coordinate Acceleration" from
      first line.
p.232 In Figure B-3 caption. "vertorial" should be "vectorial".
