Abstract

The news items include: 1) information from T. Lloyd about the discovery of Russian hydrographic bottles and barges off west Greenland, which presumably drifted from the Russian Arctic by way of the east Greenland coast and West Greenland Current; and 2) P.C. Bremner's description of the set-up and operation of a seismic observatory at Resolute Bay.
