Theagreement between thesecurves is striking, especially considering the very imperfect observation-material upon which the curves of the Spitsbergen Current are based. It seems as if the results of this investigation of the variations in thetemperature of the Spitsbergen Atlantic Current compared with the varia-tions in the winter-temperature of Norway is a remarkably good verifica-tion of the correctness of our views held forth in our memoir on theNorwegian Sea [1909] as to the close relation between the temperature ofthe Atlantic Current in the southern Norwegian Sea and the air-temperatureof the followi
