Fig. 24.— Temperature profile, crossing the Continental Shelf off Delaware Bay, August 11-12, 1916. Three profiles across the Shelf, off New York, off Delaware Bay, and off Chesapeake Bay serve to show the distribution of temperature in some detail. On the first of these (Fig. 22) there was very little horizontal change in the upper 40 meters or so, out to the 100 meter contour, though the vertical temperature gradient was very steep; and the cold band (4°-5°), which lay here on the bottom, was only.
