The results of defining the mass and numerical concentration both of total suspended matter and its organic and mineral fractions at the large-scale polygon in the northern part of the tropical Atlantic Ocean in summer, 1986 are represented. The samples were taken from the 3 m depth. To determine concentration and composition of the suspended matter, the method of converting the light scattering functions measured at the polygon was used. Distribution of concentrations of the suspended matter di
