Taking the sa-linities to be fairly correct, it is then possibleto determine how much the temperature-read-ings of the Nansen-thermometer have to beraised in order to give the probable densi-ties thus found. The observations of the temperatures ofthe sea-surface were made with a specialthermometer which was immersed in the watertaken from the sea-surface with an ordinarybucket. Provided that these observations havebeen fairly correct and that the salinities found aretrustworthy, the densities of the surface-water give alimit below which the densities of the underlyingstrata may not be reduced by the raising of the tem-peratures taken with the Nansen-thermometer, notconsidering small irregularities that may arise fro
