An examination of these mean daily temperatures brings out the interesting fact
that , over extensive parts of the earth ' s surface , interruptions occur , at stated
times in the year , in the regular rise and fall of temperature , thus pointing to ...

There is another form of this instrument , in which , by means of a screw acting
from below , the tube is made to slide along the scale , and hence in observing it
is only necessary to set the surface of the mercury in the lower limb to the neutral
