Excerpt from Thalassa: An Essay on the Depth, Temperature, and Currents of the Ocean Observations, and more especially Of the sounding Operations carried on on board h.m.s. Challenger during her cruise round the world, in so far as they throw any light upon the distribution of depth, temperature, and currents in the different oceanic basins which have been explored. The advance made in our days towards a satisfactory solu tion of the problem Of oceanic circulation will probably be recorded with due completeness by abler hands, meantime, I am not without hope that the contents Of this essay may find a welcome amongst those who have followed with interest the progress Of the numerous expeditions sent out of late years to clear up the mysteries of the ocean.
