The hydrography of the Færoe-Shetland Channel in 1902 and 1903

Appendix B of Rapports et Proces-Verbaux des Reunions Vol. 3.

Since August 1902, a rich material has been collected during several seasonal cruises in the Færoe-Shetland Channel which forms part of the Scottish region in the international investigations of the sea. This material has been worked up and has now been published in two larger papers: “Hydrographical Investigations of the Færoe-Shetland Channel and the Northern Part of the North Sea during 1902” by the present author, and “Scottish Hydrographic Research during 1903” by A.J. Robertson . As the results of these investigations are also of importance for the other North European seas, a short summary of the contents of the papers mentioned will be given in the following pages.
