Similar measurements on shells of calcareous benthonic Foraminifera from sections of <em>Globigerina</em>-ooze sediments of Tertiary age from the eastern equatorial Pacific gave a temperature of 10·4°C for the Middle Oligocene, decreasing to 2·2°C in the Late Pliocene. Thus, a temperature decrease of both surface water at high latitudes and abyssal-hadal water in open oceanic basins, amounting to about 12°C, appears to have occurred during the past 75 million years. This temperature decrease was probably not linear with time and, although very slow, may have had an important effect on the abyssal and hadal fauna. By comparison, temperatures similar to the present ones may have obtained throughout geologic time in at least some portions of the equatorial thermosphere. If constant temperature is more important for the survival of archaic forms than other factors, the equatorial pelagic fauna should show more archaic affinities than other marine faunas.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100361,"journal":{"name":"Deep Sea Research (1953)","volume":"8 2","pages":"Pages 144-147"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1961-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0146-6313(61)90006-5","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91542379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From a consideration of the heat balance of the surface layer in lower latitudes it follows that the average ascending motion through the thermocline is limited to between 1 and 5 × 10<sup>−5</sup> cm/sec. The discussion of the thermocline suggests a resultant downward heat flow in spite of the ascending motion, which is balanced by horizontal advection. A method for the calculation of the vertical exchange coefficient is given and shows that it has a pronounced minimum in the discontinuity layer. The discussion of the sinking processes of the Bottom Water and the Intermediate Waters indicates the existence of two nearly independent circulation systems in meridional direction. The deep meridional spreading of the different water masses cannot be explained satisfactorily by a two-layer model, but a four-layer model would be required. A model of a pure thermohaline circulation in an ocean covering the entire earth including frictional terms shows that a circumpolar current would exist in each hemisphere, carrying 134 × 10<sup>6</sup> m<sup>3</sup>/sec, but that the strength of the meridional circulation across 45° latitude would be only 10 × 10<sup>6</sup> m<sup>3</sup>/sec. This indicates that also in the actual ocean the thermohaline circulation can only be weak and its strength must be less than that of the wind driven circulation. In a detailed study of the deep circulation its influence, however, cannot be completely disregarded. A four-layer model of the wind driven and thermohaline circulation in a meridional plane is constructed, its implications are discussed and the results are found in agreement with the circulation pattern resulting from water mass analysis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100361,"journal":{"name":"Deep Sea Research (1953)","volume":"8 1","pages":"Pages 39-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1961-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0146-6313(61)90014-4","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81680712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
