COUNCIL — SEPT. 1910 — APPEND. C. — 50 — 



Prof. Krümmel next informed the meeting that Dr. Ruppin had now completed 

 the report summarising the parallel determinations of the amounts of CI — <t„ — SO3 

 in sea-water (see the Hydrographical protocol for the previous year p. 50, Point 4) ; 

 as the Finnish material had not been received until the 22nd of this month, it 

 had not yet been included in the summary. This would be done as soon as 

 possible however and the report sent in to the Bureau in the course of a 

 few days. 



The parallel determinations had confirmed the reliability of Knddsen's 

 tables; and a recalculation made by Dr. Ruppin of the older determinations of 

 ToRN0E and Dittmar had revealed an extremely good agreement between all the 

 measurements. 



The meeting agreed to convey its thanks to Dr. Ruppin for his valuable 

 work (unanimous agreement). 



Close of sitting, 12.30 p. m. 



Sixth Sitting: Saturday 24th September 1910, 4.30 p. m.

Secretary : Johan Gehrke. 



Also present: Brandt, Jee, Knüdsen, Krümmel, Pettersson, Wind, Witting. 



The protocol of the previous sitting was read and agreed to.

 Close of sitting, 6 p. m. 



Seventh Sitting: Monday 26th September 1910, 12 noon. 



Chairman: Professor Pettersson. 



Secretary: Johan Gehrke. 



Also present: Henking, Hjoet, Jee, Knüdsen, Krümmel, D'arcï Thompson, Wind, Witting. 



The discussion on resolution No. 4 was concluded and the resolution 

 agreed to. 



Prof. Henking pointed out that his observations in German bays had shown, 

 that Knudsen's hydrographical tables were not sufficient for hydrometric determinations 

 of very low salinities. The meeting recognised that something was wanting in this 

 direction and decided to refer the matter to Mr. Knudsen for further settlement. 



Close of sitting, 12.30 p. m.
