- W4238789026 abstract "THE Directors of the Ben Nevis Meteorological Observatory have prepared a guide book which will be of great use to the tourist who desires to scale the top of the Ben and feast his eyes upon the crag and mist beneath, and also to the large number of people interested in meteorology. By the kindness of the publishers (Messrs. John Menzies and Co., Edinburgh and Glasgow) we are able to give three illustrations of the Observatory, with an account of its foundation and the work carried on there. For many years it has been recognised that the best means of obtaining definite information as to the vertical variation of atmospheric conditions was to establish meteorological stations differing considerably in altitude but in the same locality. In this connection we read that “in 1877 Mr. Milne Home, then Chairman of the Council of the Scottish Meteorological Society, pointed out the singular advantages of Ben Nevis as a high-level station. It is the highest mountain in the British Islands (4406 feet); its summit is, in horizontal distance, about four miles from a sea-level station at Fort William, and is situated in the track of the south-west storms from the Atlantic, which exercise such a preponderating influence on the weather of Europe, especially in autumn and winter. Its advantages are therefore unique, and observations made there have proved to be of the greatest interest and value to meteorology.”" @default.
