"Scientific American Supplement, No. 433, April 19, 1884"


The average corrected results are as follows:
Depth in feet. Temp. (C.)
0(surface).................................19.4
50..........................................17.2
100..........................................12.8
150..........................................10.0
200.......................................... 8.9
250.......................................... 8.3
300.......................................... 7.8
330 (bottom)................................. 7.5
400.......................................... 7.2
480 (bottom)................................. 6.9
500.......................................... 6.7
600.......................................... 6.1
772 (bottom)................................. 5.0
1506 (bottom)..............,.................. 4.0
The temperature, therefore, diminishes with increasing depth to about
700 or 800 feet, and below this remains sensibly the same down to 1,506
feet; or in other words, a constant temperature of 4 deg.
