Figure 28. — Velocity profiles of the West Greenland Current expressed in centimeters 

 per second. Tlie solid lines represent northerly current and the dashed lines southerly 

 current. Section Aj, July 9. 1933; section Ba. July 7-13, 1933. 



for the west Greenland sector. In 1934 the slope band at Cape Fare- 

 well w^as 3.71 million cubic meters per second. In order to obtain 

 further comparisons the volume of the West Greenland Current was 

 computed from the observations of the Godthadb (see Conseil Per- 

 manent International, 1929) ; the observations of the Meteor (unpub- 

 lished) ; and the observations of the General Greene (see Soule, 1936).
