I
understand
that
,
captain
,
and
of
course
your
experience
of
navigation
in
these
waters
must
increase
our
chances
of
success
.
”
“
Undoubtedly
.
Nevertheless
,
all
that
lies
beyond
the
fixed
icebergs
is
still
the
unknown
for
me
,
as
it
is
for
other
navigators
.
”
“
The
Unknown
!
No
,
not
absolutely
,
captain
,
since
we
possess
the
important
reports
of
Weddell
,
and
,
I
must
add
,
of
Arthur
Pym
also
.
”
“
Yes
,
I
know
;
they
have
spoken
of
the
open
sea
.
”
“
Do
you
not
believe
that
such
a
sea
exists
?
”
“
Yes
,
I
do
believe
that
it
exists
,
and
for
valid
reasons
.
In
fact
,
it
is
perfectly
manifest
that
these
masses
,
called
icebergs
and
ice
-
fields
,
could
not
be
formed
in
the
ocean
itself
.
It
is
the
tremendous
and
irresistible
action
of
the
surge
which
detaches
them
from
the
continents
or
islands
of
the
high
latitudes
.
Then
the
currents
carry
them
into
less
cold
waters
,
where
their
edges
are
worn
by
the
waves
,
while
the
temperature
disintegrates
their
bases
and
their
sides
,
which
are
subjected
to
thermometric
influences
.
”
“
That
seems
very
plain
,
”
I
replied
.
“
Then
these
masses
have
come
from
the
icebergs
.

They
clash
with
them
in
drifting
,
sometimes
break
into
the
main
body
,
and
clear
their
passage
through
.
Again
,
we
must
not
judge
the
southern
by
the
northern
zone
.
The
conditions
are
not
identical
.
Cook
has
recorded
that
he
never
met
the
equivalent
of
the
Antarctic
ice
mountains
in
the
Greenland
seas
,
even
at
a
higher
latitude
.
”
“
What
is
the
reason
?
”
I
asked
.
“
No
doubt
that
the
influence
of
the
south
winds
is
predominant
in
the
northern
regions
.
Now
,
those
winds
do
not
reach
the
northern
regions
until
they
have
been
heated
in
their
passage
over
America
,
Asia
,
and
Europe
,
and
they
contribute
to
raise
the
temperature
of
the
atmosphere
.
The
nearest
land
,
ending
in
the
points
of
the
Cape
of
Good
Hope
,
Patagonia
,
and
Tasmania
,
does
not
modify
the
atmospheric
currents
.
