The principal stretches of the conformal mapping “ellipsoid-of-revolution to sphere” are explicitly
given by ( 9.66 ).

9-3 The Equal Area Mappings “Ellipsoid-of-Revolution to Plane”
The equal area mappings from the ellipsoid-of-revolution to the plane: the condition of equal
area, the standard integrals, authalic latitude.
First, we postulate the condition of equal area Λ 1 Λ 2 = 1 and subsequently we take advantage of
the standard integrals that are collected in Box 9.7 .
