The Societas Meteorologica Palatina arranged the first international meteorological network in a modern sense, being in operation between 1781 and 1792 during the last period of enlightenment. A total of 39\u0000stations contributed observations. The original aim was to investigate\u0000influences of the moon and planets on the atmosphere. Instruments were\u0000provided free of charge; a physically very advanced instruction guaranteed reliable\u0000observational results, and the data collected at 3 different hours per day were\u0000printed at high cost in the Ephemerides Societatis Meteorologicae Palatinae (denoted Ephemerides hereafter) of Mannheim. This\u0000wealth of data has become a famous treasure trove for scientists and has\u0000been used later very often for climatic studies, for climatic comparisons of\u0000different locations in textbooks, for overcoming wrong but generally\u0000accepted or even outdated (e.g. scholastic) views; for finding new explanations\u0000for meteorological phenomena, and for studying extremes of meteorological\u0000parameters. Even in modern times, the data were evaluated and used to\u0000reconstruct historical weather maps. Although, meanwhile, some problems of the historical instruments have been recognized, most of the conclusions are\u0000still basically correct. The data were also used for verifying geomagnetic\u0000models or proxy data from tree-ring analysis. This network stimulated many\u0000scholars for special meteorological studies, and it was attractive for new\u0000stations to join the network. The early death of the meteorological\u0000secretary Johann Jakob Hemmer and the Napoleonic Wars brought about the end of the project. Nevertheless, many of the stations continued the observations using the available instruments.\u0000","PeriodicalId":48918,"journal":{"name":"History of Geo- and Space Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45903196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

James Cook's second voyage to the South Seas, undertaken to settle the question regarding the existence or otherwise of the “Great Southern Continent” (Terra Australis Incognita), involved two vessels, the Resolution and Adventure. The Board of\u0000Longitude appointed two astronomers from the Royal Observatory, Greenwich,\u0000to the voyage, William Wales and William Bayly, respectively, one to each\u0000vessel. They were instructed, in addition to their astronomical duties, to\u0000observe the height and time of the tides. To this end, Bayly and Wales\u0000fabricated tide gauges and conducted timed measurements of sea level during\u0000their stopovers in New Zealand during 1773. This paper reviews those tidal\u0000observations, the first of their kind in New Zealand, using modern understanding of the tide, assuming that no significant change in the tidal\u0000regime at each location has taken place during the intervening period. When\u0000compared to the predicted (hindcast) astronomical tide, the majority (80 %) of the observed ranges and times agreed within 20 cm and 30 min, respectively. Whilst their observations have little scientific value today (other than indicating the quality attainable in the late 18th\u0000century), Bayly and Wales can not only rightfully lay claim to making New\u0000Zealand's first tide gauge measurements but also, as far as it possible to\u0000ascertain, be justifiably proud of the quality of their endeavours.\u0000","PeriodicalId":48918,"journal":{"name":"History of Geo- and Space Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44436841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shortly after the introduction of the physical unit for the magnetic field in 1832 and the invention of the bifilar apparatus in 1837, both being extraordinary scientific achievements that took place in Göttingen, the Clementinum observatory in Prague became one of the first places where systematic observations of the horizontal intensity of the geomagnetic field began. Karl Kreil was decisively responsible for this. In this paper, we focus on the very beginnings of geomagnetic observations in Prague, dating from the middle of 1839. We describe the archival materials with data that exist from that time, how the main instrument for observing magnetic storms – the bifilar magnetometer – worked and how it was calibrated, and the first magnetic survey in Bohemia. This study indicates the importance of historical geomagnetic observation materials to modern science, such as space weather research.\u0000","PeriodicalId":48918,"journal":{"name":"History of Geo- and Space Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43989049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Australian Bureau of Meteorology (http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/mjo, last access: 9 February 2023) states that “The Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) is a major fluctuation in\u0000tropical weather on weekly to monthly timescale. The MJO can be\u0000characterized as an eastward moving `pulse' of cloud and rainfall near the\u0000Equator that typically recurs every 30 to 60 days.” Early descriptions of\u0000the MJO were contained in two papers by Madden and Julian (1971, 1972). This paper relates the story of developments in tropical meteorology in the 1960s that led to those two papers. The decade saw the first unambiguous\u0000identification of large-scale, theoretically predicted, tropical waves. Spectral analysis was used effectively by researchers to link observations\u0000with the theoretically expected features of these waves. At the same time,\u0000longer time series of observations, faster computers, and an algorithm\u0000designed to speed up Fourier transforms, vital for spectral analysis, all\u0000became available.
