On the deep and shallow water marine fauna of the Kerguelen Region of the Great Southern Ocean . in the Arctic Ocean 292 signifies 29°2 F., in the Mediterranean 565 signifies56°5 F., and in the Sulu Sea 505 signifies 50°5 F.

It willbe noticed that at the depth of 1000 fathoms the North Atlantic is much the warmestocean, and that the whole of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans is above the average atthis depth (36°5 F.), while the greater part of the Pacific is below this average. Thesame general features persist to the bottom in each ocean with some slight deviations dueto local conditions. The thirty-seven deep-water Challenger stations south of thesouthern tropic, specially referred to in this paper, are indicated by a circle in black.
