For many years the writer has wished for the means to bring about some uniform system of glacier observation, and more especially the collection of data respecting ice-movements in British Colonies, and territories under British influence. When we think of our mountains in the Dominion of Canada and in New Zealand, and the vast ranges of the Himalayas (these last we shall before long hear about from Mr. Conway), it seems a great pity that such promising fields should not be adequately worked. In an article in the Alpine Journal, for February, 1891, the writer sketched a plan of operation; and in the same Journal, for February, 1893, asked for a committee to communicate with such Colonial Governments as could take part. |
