The results of the measurements have been fitted to a secant bulk modulus (<em>K</em>) equation of state <em>K = V⁰P/(V⁰ − V^P) = K⁰ + AP + BP²</em>, where <em>V⁰</em> and <em>V^P</em> are the measured specific volumes of seawater at applied pressure zero and <em>P</em>, respectively, <em>K⁰ = 1/β^o</em>, the reciprocal of the isothermal compressibility at atmospheric pressure, <em>A</em> and <em>B</em> are all salinity- and temperature-dependent parameters. The specific volumes have been fitted to this equation with a standard deviation of 7 ppm (on the measurement residuals) over the entire salinity, temperature and pressure range. The fitted relative specific volumes (<em>V^P − V⁰</em>) are in excellent agreement (within <em>±5ppm</em>) with the sound-derived data of<span>Wang</span> and<span>Millero</span> (<em>Journal of Geophysical Research</em>,<strong>78</strong>, 7122–7128, 1973) over the oceanographic range of salinity, temperature and pressure.

The source of this feature is most probably in the Gibbs fracture zone, where we suppose that primordial ³He is released into westward-flowing bottom water.
