. The depths of the ocean : a general account of the modern science of oceanography based largely on the scientific researches of the Norwegian steamer Michael Sars in the North Atlantic. "Michael Sars" North Atlantic Deep-sea Expedition (1910); Oceanography; North Atlantic Ocean. 656 DEPTHS OF THE OCEAN Our collections of minute crustaceans, especially Copepoda, are very extensive, but their examination will take a long time. In order to give some information about the distribution of these interesting forms, I asked G. O. Sars to determine the species contained in some of our closing-net hauls, and selected samples from certain stations (see Fig. 487), which I believed to be specially characteristic, viz. two stations in the Sargasso. Fig. 487.—Positions of Stations from which lists of Crustacea have been DRAWN UP. [Station 6o should be 63.] Sea (50, 63), one station off the Newfoundland banks (80), one station off Ireland (92), and one station in the Norwegian Sea north of the Wyville Thomson Ridge (113). Before referring to Sars' determinations (see list, pp. 654-5) I may indicate the tem- peratures at the various depths where the nets were towed :— Station 50. Station 63. Stat on 80. .Sta ion 92.
