1. The Mean Pressure of the Atmosphere over the Globe for the Months and for the Year. Part I.—January, July, and the Year
The three charts which were exhibited, showing, by isobarometric lines, the mean atmospheric pressure over the globe, during January, July, and the year, were constructed from observations made at 358 places thus distributed over the earth,—167 in Europe; 51 in Asia; 22 in Africa and adjoining islan...

Of the European stations, 12 are in Scotland, 14 in England, 27 in Austria, 12 in Italy, 10 in France, 10 in the Netherlands, 9 in Norway, and 57 in the Russian empire, &c.
