Northwards, towards the Orange river mouth, the extent of cool water became more restricted, and in 290 S. the warmer oceanic water penetrated more closely to the coast. The outflow of fresh water from the Orange river can be detected over a wide area. The surface-salinities at stations in the neigh- bourhood were vastly reduced (32-39 %0 at WS 1001) but the reduction affected only a thin surface- layer, and 50 miles offshore at WS 1000 the surface-salinity was that of the normal sea-water of the region. To the west of station WS 998 the boundary with the warm oceanic water was sharply
