I Fig. 29.— Salinity profile crossing the continental shelf off Shelburne, Nova Scotia (Stations 10231-10233), July 27-28, 1914. and that of the succeeding profiles (Fig. 29-31), is that the low tem- perature of the Nova Scotian coast water (p. 174) is accompanied, in the upper layers, by correspondingly low salinity. Off Halifax (Fig. 31) the freshest water, like the lowest temperature, was localized close to the land, with a considerable increase in salinity, passing oifshore. 1*.
