 Rapport de l'administrateur de la Commission B 



Report of the Convener of Committee B 



The interim report which I have the honour to submit as Convener of 

 Committee ß is necessarily incomplete, because the reports of work done in 

 Sweden, Holland an Scotland have not yet been received. It is also impossible 

 as yet to include any summary of the work done by the Danish vessel "Thor" in 

 the waters off Iceland and the Faroe Islands during the past summer. 



My sutnmary of the work done at sea during the past year under the 

 auspices of Committee B is therefore limited to the results of the Danish, Ger- 

 man, and English investigations, and deals with investigations carried out from 

 October, 1902 to the end of July, 1903. 



Trawling Experiments. The total number of hauls of the trawl made in 

 the North Sea and Skager Rak during the period is 278, of which 167 were made 

 in the western half, and 111 in the eastern half of the North Sea. The following 

 table gives the details, the line of division between the western and eastern por- 

 tions being 4° E. longitude.
