Extract

The question as to the perfect uniformity or otherwise of the chemical composition of sea-water is one of great difficulty and complexity. It is quite certain that, broadly speaking, great differences do not exist, so that a conclusion can only be arrived at by the application of methods of analysis of great refinement, and then only if the limits of experimental error inherent in these methods be satisfactorily determined.
