APPENDICES. 



Appendix I to Report of joint Meeting. 



Proposals for Discussion at the Hydrographical Section 



of the International Council, 1920. 



Plaice Programme. 



1. Hydrographical contributions to the British Plaice Programme of 1920 

 — 21. The programme includes surface and subsurface observations of temperature 

 and salinity and possibly the determination of Hydrogen Ion Concentration: the 

 most important contribution is the proposal to liberate upwards of 20,000 drift 

 bottles, both surface and bottom. The details of these proposals will be submitted 

 for discussion. It is desirable to make this investigation on as broad an Inter- 

 national basis as possible, commensurate with the complete fulfilment of the Reso- 

 lutions. 



Surface Observations. 



2. The elaboration of an intensive surface sahnity and temperature programme 

 to extend over the whole area of the North Atlantic Ocean and its tributary waters.
