 leevc-rd of the- brnks, the 51 meter observf tion of 36.59°/oo 

 is only 0.04.°/oo more ssline thrn the surfrcc ^nd 0.06°/oo 

 than that ?t 102 meters. At str. . 4I, atout seven miles 

 to leevrrd, this upper salinity maximum is absent, the 51 

 meter Sclinity is O.O5 /oo less than the t ct the surfrce 

 end 0.06 /oo less than thrt et 102 meters. The bottle con- 

 tf ining the surfc.ce sr Unity ser.pie for str . 42 was un- 

 fortunately broken during shipment to Woods Hole for ?nr ly- 

 sis. However, the 51 i''-cter selinity, 36.53°/oo is equcl 

 to that vt the surfcce ct str. 4I '.-^hile the surfrce rt 

 sts. 28 is 36 ./i.5^/00. It sterns quite probfble thf t the 

 51 meter d<-pth would filso show r. sJ ight salinity maxiDium 

 at sts. 4?. At sta. 25^ the 5I meter observation is If ek- 

 ing . At stf . 33, the' 51 meter observr tion .is 0.28°/oo 

 more than the surfrce ^nd 0.19°/oo more than rt 102 meters. 

 Furth»%r inshore, the surface selinity is slightly hi&:her 

 than rt 50 or IOC meters.

Unfortunately, rlthough much time and -effort were 

 expended in trking b-: thythermorr?:ph slides, -.iter our re-

 to us by the '-.'oods Hole Ocernogrephic Institute, was de- 

 fective rnd the slides v^er'-j of no vrlue.
