Abstract
The researches into atmospheric electricity made during the Arctic Expedition of General Nobile comprised partly the measurements made in the airship Italia (Fig. 1) during the flights (see Figs. 2 and 3) Milan to Stolp (Pomerania), Stolp to Vadsö to Kings Bay (Spitsbergen), Kings Bay to Franz‐Josef Land to North Land (or Lenin Land) to Novaya Zemlya to Kings Bay, and Kings Bay to Greenland to North Pole to Charles XII Island (north of Spitsbergen), and partly the measurements made in Kings Bay on board the S.S. Città di Milano. The measurements included intensity of the penetrating radiation of the atmosphere, electric conductivity, ionic content, potential gradient, and radioactivity of the air. This paper deals merely with the measurements made during the flights of the Italia and their interpretation.
