And though this change was interrupted off Mt. Desert (Station 10099), the difference between surface (°) and bottom (°) off the Grand Manan Channel (Sta- tion 10098) was only 2°. At Stations 10097 and 10100 the temperature agreed at the surface (55°) and at 100 fathoms (°); but from about ten fathoms down to about fifty fathoms, Station 10100 was the colder of the two, with a difference of 3° at twenty fathoms, a fact probably due to an upwelling of cold water from below. On the Nova Scotia slope, off Lurcher Shoal (Station 10096), the temperature curve (Fig. 19) agrees very closely with that for Station 40° 41 42 43 44 45 _ 46 47 48 49 50° 5LJ2 53 54. 55 56 57 58 59 60° 61 62. Fig. 19.— Temperature sections in the Gulf of Maine, on Jeffrey's Bank (Station 10091); off Matinicus Island (Station 10101); off the coast of Maine near the Grand Manan Channel (Station 10098); near Lurcher Shoal (Station 10096); and on German Bank (Station 10095). 10097 from the surface down to fifty fathoms, cooling from 54° to about 47°, and although the seventy fathom reading (43°) was colder than the water at the corresponding level in the northern part of the basin, it was almost precisely the same as the bottom water there (Stations 10097 and 10100). The temperature was practically uniform from the surface downward, on German Bank; and even over the seventy fathom curve on its western slope (Station 10094, Fig. 17) the difference between surface and bottom was only about 3° (48° )..
