Extract

The author, in presenting results relating to the decennial period derived from observations made at Trevandrum during twenty-two years, has sought a redetermination of the mean duration of that period, as shown by preceding magnetical observations connected with his own. The relation of the frequency and area of sun-spots to the amplitude of the diurnal movements of the magnetic needle gives an increased value to this investigation.
