From Yokohajna to Station 2^j. 115 Between Station 225 and 229 we observe the usual fan-likearrangement of the isotherms, caused by the sinking of theheavier equatorial water through the lighter strata of the polarcurrent (Plates 9 and 19). The Kuro-Siwo, running at Station234 and Station 235, at a short distance from the south coast ofNipon, flows, like the Gulf Stream, over and between the coldwaters of the Arctic current, contending with the latter for thealternate possession of the romantic bays and inlets of the southcoast of Nipon, Sikok, and Kiusiu. A branch of the Kuro-Siwopenetrates through the Straits of Korea into the Sea of Japan. The usual alternation of streaks of warm and of cold waterwhich characterise the scene of the meeting between equatorialand polar currents was observed by the Challenger during thelast three days of her cruise to Japan.
