Growth is expressed as average percentage increase in mean length for 11 experiments (Table I). Sur- vival is average percentage survival in 11 experiments (Table II). Since our apparatus can maintain only six different constant temperatures at a time, it was necessary to use a different series of temperatures in different experi- ments to cover the range from 10° to ° C in ° C steps. We considered it desirable to repeat certain reference temperatures in all experiments to facilitate comparisons among experiments. The temperatures of 20° and ° C, there- fore, were included in all Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
