Meteorological Persistence

Abstract

THERE is a special sense of appropriateness about the brochure entitled “Konstant auftretende secundare Maxima und Minima im dem Jahrlichen Verlauf der meteorologischen Erscheinungen,” by Dr. Eli Van Rijckevorsel, published as No. 102 of the “Mededeelingen en Verhandelingen” of the Royal Meteorological Institute of the Netherlands. For the last dozen years the author has appeared to confine his published scientific activity to the subject of the persistence of secondary maxima and minima in annual meteorological phenomena, and this is his eleventh contribution on the same thesis, the last three of which have received the support of his national institute.
