Remarks to accompany the Monthly Charts of Meteorological Observations for No. 3 Square, extending from the Equator to 10° N., and from 20° to 30° W

Abstract

THIS portion of the Meteorological Committee's work in the discussion of Ocean Meteorology has been printed by the Committee for distribution among meteorologists and others, with the view of eliciting their opinions on the utility of the method adopted, together with any suggestions they may have to offer. The chart issued with the remarks gives the results of the discussion of No. 3 Square of Marsden's numbered squares for the month of January. This square has been selected as the one of greatest importance, and in which the largest number of observations have been collected. It is divided in the chart into 100 squares of 1° each, in which are set down, in a compact form, the results of the discussion as respects wind, variation, atmospheric pressure, air and sea temperature, humidity, the currents and specific gravity of the sea, and, in the margin, weather and cloud.

Remarks to accompany the Monthly Charts of Meteorological Observations for No. 3 Square, extending from the Equator to 10° N., and from 20° to 30° W.

(Printed for private circulation, by authority of the Meteorological Committee of the Board of Trade.)
