The centre of the chemical work lies in the inorganic analytic field. An
apparatus has been developed by which all matter dissolved in the near sur
face water and determinable by means of photometry can continuously be analys'
ed quantitatively. Such an apparatus was successfully tested in the Irminger
Sea for' dissolved inorganic phosphate. For the International Quaternary Map
of Europe the drafts of two further sheets of the geologic representation of
the bottom of the sea have been completed. Besides the routine ioe service,
an introductory course for ice observations from airplanes was for the first
time held in the GHI;- in the last winter the Bundeswehr undertook several
flights to investigate the ice conditions. A scientific study of the inter
relation between the summerly heat budget of a sea area and the formation
of ice in the following winter will soon be published.
