616 H. MOHN. METEOROLOGY. [norw. pol. exp. 



guided by the notes in the diary of Prof. Nansen regarding the hours 

 of travelling and resting, and the speed of the journey each day. 



The positions determined astronomically are given in degrees and minutes 

 of an arc. 



The interpolated positions are given only in degrees and tenths of a 

 degree. In some cases it has not been possible to find out the position of 

 the places of observation with any great accuracy; but for meteorological pur- 

 poses, the given positions may be taken as sufficiently correct, considering 

 the accuracy of the observations themselves. 



The following Table of observations contains (1) The Year, (2) The 

 Month, (3) The Day of the Month, (4) The Hour, (5) The Latitude N., (6) The 

 Longitude East of Greenwich, (7) The Direction of the Wind, true, (8) The 

 Velocity of the Wind, estimated in metres per second, (9) The Atmospheric 

 Pressure in millimetres, at standard Gravity and Sea-Level, (10) The Tempera- 

 ture of the Air, Centigrade, (11) The Amount of Cloud, (12) The Forms of 

 Cloud, (13) Remarks, including Minimum-Temperatures observed, and (14) 

 The Readings of the Aneroids, Hicks in inches, Gary in millimetres.
