Craigie (1916a) had temperatures of 8.15° to 9.25° at 100 meters in the Baj- of 

 Fundy on August 27 to 29, 1914, corresponding closely to about 9.6° in the Grand 

 Manan Channel at this depth on August 17, 1912 (station 10034). In 1919, Mavor 

 (1923) found the lOO-ineter level about 2° colder than this (6.9° to 8.5°) at a 



Fio. 50.— Temperature at a depth of 100 meters, July to August, 1914. North of Georges Bank the chart represents the 

 state of the gulf duriug the last half of August; south of the bank the data are for July and August combined 



number of stations in the lower half of the bay at the end of August; but it is prob- 

 able that the regional distribution of temperature was about the same in the two 

 summers, with the water slightly coldest in the center of the bay abreast of the 

 western end of Grand Manan Island.
