... occur , at stated times in the year , in the regular rise and fall of temperature ,
thus pointing to widespread disturbing causes , the explanation of which will
doubtless lead to a juster conception of the disturbing forces of the atmosphere .

The space in the tube above the water is not a true vacuum , but is filled with
aqueous vapour , which presses on the water with a force varying with the
temperature . If the temperature be 32° the column is depressed half an inch ,
