the Ind. Metl. Memoirs A'^ol. XVI, where they were reduced to the 

 present height of 702 ft. From 1875 ^o 1888 the ol)servations were 

 recorded at 10'^ and i6'\ local time; from 1889 to date at 8'^: the 

 former series were reduced to the latter by applying the corrections 

 contained in Ind. Metl. Memoirs V^ol. X\'II, p. XXIX. The observa- 

 tory was shifted to a distance of al)out 4 miles from the old site in 

 January 1885. No corrections have been applied to the temperature 

 readings.

NAGPUR 



Height of barometer from start to December KJ05 was 1025 ft. ; 

 January 1906 to date, 1017 ft. A correction of +.008 was applied 

 from start to December 1905 to reduce these readings to the present

PORT BLAIR 



Height of bai-ometer from start to March j(;o8 was 61 ft.; A[)ril 

 1908 to June 1920, 58 ft. ; July 1920 to December 1920, 59 ft. Data 

 up to 1902 were given in the Ind. Metl. Memoirs Vol. XVI, where 

 they were for the height of 61 ft. Corrections of 4-.002, —.001 were 

 applied to the readings from start to March 1908 and from April 1908 

 to June T920 respectively, to reduce them to the present height of 

 59 ft. The observations from 1871 to 1888 were recorded lo'^ and
