NOTES. NORTH ATLANTIC 83 



Instnimcnt: iM-om 1894 till 1896, October 11, a Babinet rain 

 gage with a receiver 0.113 m. in diameter, was in 

 use. From 1896, Oct()l)er 12 to 1923, a recording 

 rain gage of Fascianelli with a receiver 0.2 m. in 

 diameter was in use. 



Notes: The exposure of the rain gage at the Observatory is not 

 good, and for comparison observations are taken 

 at Faja de Cima, a station with a good exposure 

 near Ponta Delgada at a height of 175 m. To make 

 the values taken at the Observatory comparal)le 

 with those at Faja de Cima, the observations should 

 be increased by 59 per cent.
