Station positions may be identified by collation with Fig. 13. The dotted lines show the shift of the isotherms of 18, 19 and 20° C. (see Table IV). The region of the Guanape Islands and Salaverry was examined in two states of the wind within a very short time (Fig. 35). In the evening of July 9, St. WS 674 was worked at 56 miles from land in winds of S 35" E with force 1-3 to 5-8 From this position the ship ran to Salaverry during t

In the evening of July 9, St. WS 674 was worked at 56 miles from land in winds of S 35" E with force 1-3 to 5-8 From this position the ship ran to Salaverry during the night, taking a record of surface temperature as she went (Table IV and Fig. 30). On the following night the ship worked a line of stations outwards from the Guafiape Islands back towards the position of St. WS 674. In the meantime the wind direction had changed from south-south-east to south-south-west with force 1-2 , and all isotherms at 20 miles to sea and upwards were now found closer inshore. The greatest displacement was over the middle of the shelf some 30 miles
