Thus the constitution of the water in the deeper strata
and at the bottom was found to be almost unchanged in 1875,
76 & 78, and yet we know that, from a nautic point of view,
the condition of the Kara Sea was very different in 1876 from
in 1875 or 1878.
I next wish to call attention to the important fact, that
the same constitution of the deeper vvater-strata with regard
to saltness and temperature also prevails in that part of the
Barentz Sea west of the Waigatch and Novaya Zemlya, as may
be seen from the following observations by the Swedish
expedition, 1875, and the Holland, 1881.
