Arbejde med Skrabe, Trawl, Svabere og Overfladenet
foretages paa de Stationer, hvor saadanne ansees
nødvendige for Studiet af Dyrelivet i de forskjellige Dybder,
undersøiske Klimater og Bundarter.
De chemiske Arbejder, inclusive Bestemmelsen af
Havvandets specifiske Vægt udføres i clet væsentlige som i
1877.
Magnetiske Observationer søges udført i Søen,
navnlig Misvisnings-Observationer. Absolute Bestemmelser af
de jordmagnetiske Elementer søges gjort paa Land paa
Spidsbergen, Beeren Eiland og i Norge. Saavidt muligt
paa Steder, hvorfra der tidligere haves saadanne.
Geologiske og botaniske Iagttagelser udføres efter
Lejlighed paa de Steder, som Expeditionen anløber.
Ligesaa astronomiske Stedbestemmelser, topografiske og
hydrografiske Undersøgelser.
De meteorologiske Iagttagelser ombord udføres som
i 1877.
Ved de Lejligheder. Expeditionen passerer Beeren
Eiland. forsøges, om Omstændighederne maatte være
gunstige. Landgang der til Udførelse af astronomiske,
geografiske, geologiske, zoologiske, botaniske, hydrografiske
Undersøgelser.
Paa Spidsbergen foretages lignende Undersøgelser paa
de Steder, hvor Expeditionen kommer til at anløbe —
hvilke Steder blive at bestemme efter de Fordringer, som
Arbejderne i Søen stille. Specielt haves Opmærksomheden
rettet paa Undersøgelse af Fiskerierne ved Spidsbergens
Kyst og i dens Fjorde, paa jordmagnetiske og hydrografiske
Undersøgelser.
possible, be collected, for determining the specific gravity,
and for chemical examination. A piezometer will have to be
sent down with every sounding, partly as a means of
controlling the depth, and partly to determine the constants
of the piezometer. •
Exploratory work with the dredge, trawl, surface-net.
and swabs, will be prosecuted at all stations where it
affords opportunity of investigating the forms of animal life
in the various depths, as also submarine climatic conditions,
and the materials of the sea-bottom.
The chemical work of the Expedition, including
determinations of specific gravity, to be done essentially as
on last -year’s cruise.
Magnetical observations shall, if possible, be taken at
sea, in particular those for obtaining the variation of the
compass, and absolute determinations ashore, on
Spitzber-gen, Beeren Eiland, and in Norway, if practicable at points
from which such observations already exist.
Geological and botanical work will be prosecuted in
suitable localities; likewise astronomical observations of
latitude and longitude, together with topographical and
hydrographical investigations.
The meteorological observations to be taken
essentially as on last year’s cruise.
When passing Beeren Eiland. attempt shall, on each
occasion* if practicable, be made to land there, with the
object of prosecuting astronomical, geographical, geological,
zoological, botanical, hydrographical investigations.
On Spitsbergen, too. like investigations shall be
undertaken in localities visited by the Expedition, the
number and positions of the localities depending on the time
required for the exploration in the open sea. Attention is
specially directed to the fisheries off the coasts of
Spitz-bergen and in the fjords of the island, as also to the
importance of magnetic and hydrographical observations.
Som Følge af, at Expeditionen for dette Aar var
besluttet forlagt 14 Dage senere end de foregaaende Aars,
indførtes de nødvendige Forandringer i Kontrakten om
Lejen af Skibet, og dette overtoges først den 1ste Maj.
Indredningsarbejderne udførtes ved Brunchorst & Dekkes
Værft aldeles som det foregaaende Aar, uden Forandring
hverken i Apteringer eller i Apparaternes Placering.
Den Ilte Juni hejstes Kommandoen og Mandskabet
paa mønstredes. Da Premierlieutenant Petersen havde
frasagt sig Posten som Næstcomma lideren de paa Grund af
Sygdom, blev denne Stilling overtaget af Skibsfører Grieg,
medens en tredie Styrmand forhyredes, for om muligt at
overtage noget af Tredieconimauderendes Tjeneste. Den
13de Juni kom Professor Sars og Kemikerne Tornøe og
Schmelck ombord, og den 14de halede vi ud Ira Værftet
The departure of the Expedition this year having been
fixed to take place a fortnight later than on the two
preceding crtiises, a clause to that effect, modifying the terms
originally agreed upon, was introduced into the Contract
for the hire of the vessel: and accordingly she was not
taken in charge till the 1st of May. This year. too. the
ship was fitted out by Messrs. Brunchorst & Dekke,
without change either as regards the general arrangement or
the placing of the apparatus.
On the 11th of June I hoisted my pennant, and
the crew came on board. Lieutenant Petersen. R.X..
having from ill-health had to resign his post as
first-lieutenant, Mr. Grieg,- captain in the merchant-navy, was
appointed to succeed him. and a third mate engaged to assist
the first-lieutenant in the discharge of his duties. On the
13th of June Professor Sars embarked, along with Mr.
Tornøe and Mr. Schmelck; and on the 14th we hauled out
