3. On the Distribution of Temperature in the Antarctic Ocean

Abstract In the regions of the Antarctic Ocean where icebergs are numerous, and where in winter the sea-water freezes, the distribution of temperature in the deeper layers of water is peculiar. The facts are detailed in the Challenger Narrative (vol. i.). The general result of her observations went...
