(31.2 °/o9) which is due to the water from the glaciers. At 25m. depth, 
“we have abt. 32°/o,, 100m. abt. 33/5), 200m. abt. 34°/,,, after which 
the increase is only very slight (550 m.; 35.2 / 9). In the central portion 
of the fjord, the warm layers go somewhat farther up than at the mouth. 
The warm Atlantic water penetrates almost right up to the glacier at 
the base of the Sermilik (St. 113, 565m. 3.2°). The low temperature 
(0.8°) at 250m. (St. 135) I am unable to explain. 
Skovfjord and Tunugdliarfik (for depths etc. vide p. 233, 354). 
The conditions here were not so well investigated as in Bredefjord; it is 
evident however, that the Atlantic water has access at least to some 
degree, although the bottom temperature is not as high as in Bredefjord. 
Kvanefjord, (for depths etc. vide p. 234). At 10m. depth, the 
salinity at the mouth was 29.6 °/o9, as against only 26.9 °/o) in the central 
portion, which is due to the many icebergs. From 1.6° at 25m. depth, 
the temperature decreases, down to abt. 125m. where it was = 1.25°;
