What is "temperatures"

Usage examples of "temperatures".

The fact that the water on the banks off the coast has lower salinities, and in part lower temperatures, than the water outside in the deep sea, has usually been explained by its being mixed with the coast water, which is diluted with river water from the land.

This is clearly seen on the chart, which shows the distribution of temperatures and salinities on the surface.

But below these depths the temperatures and salinities decrease rather rapidly for some distance.

We had expected to observe higher temperatures in the course of the winter, but the thermometer remained very low.

At no fewer than sixty stations they took a number of temperatures, samples of water, and specimens Page 12 Amundsen, Ronald - The South Pole, Vol.

We may divide it into two classes, the outfit for specially low temperatures and that for more moderate temperatures.

Our clothing in moderate temperatures consisted of thick woollen underclothing and Burberry windproof overalls.

In spite of these difficulties, we had a quite respectable collection of samples of water and temperatures at different depths before we set our course for Norway at the beginning of July, with Bergen as our destination.

In low temperatures these reindeer clothes are beyond comparison the best, but here in the South we did not as a rule have low temperatures on our sledge journeys.

We were astonished to find this low temperature while summer ought still to have lasted, especially when I remembered the moderate temperatures Shackleton had observed on his southern sledge journey.

With the low temperatures we experienced on this trip, we noticed a curious snow-formation that I had never seen before.

In the temperatures we had on the summer journeys there was no difficulty in keeping warm enough with the one-man bags, and they were used by all of us.

On the other hand, the figures themselves are very high, when the low temperatures are considered, and this is doubtless the result of there being open water not very far away.

We see that there are high temperatures on the left-hand side of the currents, and low on the right-hand side.

We find about the same temperatures in the South African Deep, and farther eastward in a belt that is continued round the whole earth.
