Abstract
I AM glad to support the appeal for observations of the motion of cirrus-clouds in the inter-tropical region and elsewhere made by Prof. van Bemmelen in his letter on the Antitrades (NATURE, February 9, p. 172). It is very interesting that the results which he has obtained by direct observation, with only such additional information from dynamics as may be got from a consideration of the general character of the Australian pressure, should coincide so excellently with results which we obtained here from the calculation of the distribution of pressure at various levels, and the assumption that the wind flows along the isobars.
