Some Temperature and Salinity Records from the Canadian Arctic during 1954 and 1955
A series of fourteen oceanographic stations were occupied from May 1954 to August 1955 in the Canadian Arctic. Temperatures and salinities were usually recorded at six levels down to 100 m. Low salinities, less than 30‰, were recorded at all depths at two stations in Coronation Gulf and near Cambrid...

| Summary: | A series of fourteen oceanographic stations were occupied from May 1954 to August 1955 in the Canadian Arctic. Temperatures and salinities were usually recorded at six levels down to 100 m. Low salinities, less than 30‰, were recorded at all depths at two stations in Coronation Gulf and near Cambridge Bay during the summer of 1954. Data from eight stations in the vicinity of the northern coast of Baffin Island during the winter 1954–55 and the following summer revealed some of the seasonal changes in temperature and salinity. |
