Abstract
OT much less important among the geographical factors which determine climate than latitude and altitude, is the relative distribution of land and sea, or, in short, continentality versus oceanity, and in view of the somewhat large class of students who encounter this aspect of climatology it seems desirable to direct attention to a couple of German maps which have recently appeared indicating the distribution of continentality over the globe as a whole and over Europe in detail (Petermanns Mitteilungen, June 1922, R. Spitaler after G. Swobodna).
