Vær og klima over indre strøk av Østlandet 1781 - 1790
Each of the four observers, Hans Strøm, Christian Sommerfelt, Axel Christian Smith and Hans Jacob Wille, is presented with a short biography, followed by their respective observations. Strøm’s observations also include instrumental readings of air pressure and temperature. e instrumental readings ha...
