appear on the slopes bordering these shelves, but this may be merely 

 a reflection of the paucity of soundings from these regions. 



Figure 2, which has been adapted from a chart presented by Johnson 

 and Eckhof f (1966) , depicts the bathymetry of the northern Greenland 

 Sea. This chart does not extend into the northernmost portion of 

 the survey region, but available charts of that region are based 

 on such a small amount of data that a mental extrapolation of Johnson 

 and Eckhof f's chart will probably give the reader the best idea of 

 the bathymetry of that area.
