 between, stations A and B. 



It has been the practice in the present paper first to construct 

 velocity profiles and then to make planimeter measurements of the

volume of the separate bands of opposing flow as shown distributed 

 on the particular profile. The net transport thus found has then 

 been checked by employing the values at end stations, or between 

 critical pairs of stations, of the section, in accordance with the above-
