Extract

This paper contains an account of the Thermometric and Hygrometric observations made at the Barbadoes, from May 1841 to January 1842. The instruments were carefully verified and observed; and, during three months, the temperature was ascertained for 18 hours out of the 24. The author thence deduces the form of the daily curve of temperature for that period.
