Synopsis

Excerpt from Vertical Gradients of Temperature, Humidity, and Wind Direction: A Preliminary Report on the Kite Observations of 1898

The temperature conditions at all elevations and under varying conditions of weather and time have been computed in terms of the gradient in degrees Fahrenheit for each 1 000 feet, and in the increase of elevation necessary to cause a fall of 1 degree in the temperature. The mean results, however, are given only in degrees per thousand feet.

Some attention has also been given to the questions of wind directions, relative humidity, and vapor pressure.

The tables and plates accompanying will, it is believed, furnish all the tabular matter that may be desired.
