Summer temperature and salinity profiles over a 50 year period, some averaged from adjacent profiles, and dashed if more than 15 km from 168º 20’E, 77º 10’S, near Ross Island. Plotted values are 100 m averages/interpolations of CTD or bottle data, edited or extrapolated where shown by open circles. Horizontal lines depict the salinity ranges at six bottle casts in southern McMurdo Sound over 23 December 1960 – 9 February 1961 (Tressler and Ommundsen, 1963[1]). Temperatures are referenced to the surface freezing point, ~-1.91°C at a salinity of 34.8. Tfrs is the surface freezing reference temperature.
