CHKISTIANIA, 1901. 411 



The Conference recommends that the International Council should 

 meet at Copenhagen as soon as the participating Governments have 

 definitely accepted the programme of the Conference ; and if that 

 should not be possible, that each Government should send a delegate 

 (accompanied, if desired, by specialists) with full powers to decide what 

 regulations should be made for the prompt constitution of the Central 

 Bureau, 



G. 



In distinct areas of the sea, as for instance the Moray Firth, in which 

 any Government has undertaken scientific experiments in the interest 

 of the fisheries, and in which the success of the experiments is being 

 hindered by the operations of trawlers, it is to be desired that measures 

 be adopted for the removal of such hindrances. 



H. 



The Conference recognises the extreme value of Dr. Martin Kuud- 

 seu's hydrographic tables, and expresses its cordial thanks to him for 

 his admirable work. 



The Conference desires that the Central Bureau should be authorised 

 to pay the balance of the expenses of the investigation not covered by 

 the grants already received from Governments and scientific institu- 

 tions, either out of the general funds, or from any special grants made 

 fur the purpose. 



J. 



The Conference considers it desirable that the hydrographic material 

 should not only be published by the Central Bureau in tabular form, 

 but also that the results should be worked up in such a form as to 

 elucidate the currents of the different layers of water and their relations 

 to wind and to differences of density as motive agencies, by methods 

 similar to those of Mohn and Bjerknes. 



K. 



The Conference considers it desirable that the International Associa- 

 tion for Limnological Studies should, as far as possible, adopt for the 

 investigation of lakes the methods and times of observation approved 

 by this Conference for the study of the sea ; and recommends that the 

 Central Bureau should arrange for the regular exchange of the observa- 

 tions made on lakes and on the sea.
