Abstract
PROF. SCHAFFERNAK, from the store of his knowledge and experience as an exponent of the principles of hydrography at the Technical High School of Vienna, has compiled a textbook on the subject which should be extremely useful to students, as also to others who are engaged in observational and experimental work of this nature. The volume is divided into three main parts, the first of which deals with the taking and assembling of hydrographical, meteorological and morphological observations, including rainfall, water-levels and discharges of rivers and streams; the second with statistics in an analytical and graphical form; and the third with a consideration of important special problems and their solution.
