Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book presents the results of the magnetic observations made during a scientific expedition to the Southern Cross Antarctic region from 1899-1900. The data provides valuable insights into Earth's magnetic phenomena at the South Pole in the late 19th century. Along with absolute declination observations at Cape Adare, the book details inclination and horizontal force results, diurnal variation of declination, and disturbance and aurora observations. One of the book's main focuses is on comparing the relative size of disturbing forces at Cape Adare with those at Kew, England (the book includes a thorough analysis of these findings). The book concludes with a discussion of the significance of the expedition's findings and their implications for understanding Earth's magnetic field, providing a valuable resource for scientists, historians, and anyone interested in geomagnetism. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
