<br />SUBJEOT AND AUTHOR INDEX OF THE MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW, 1908.
<br />
<br />CHRONOLOGICAL INDEX FOLLOWS.
<br />
<br />The following rules have been observed in preparing this
<br />index:
<br />The meteorological elements most important in determin-
<br />ing climate, such as temperature and precipitation, are en-
<br />tered under both the element and the locality, but the follow-
<br />ing are entered only under their respective headings, and not
<br />under the locality: atmospheric electricity, droughts, earth.
<br />quakes, evaporation, floods, fog, frost, lightning, meteors, op-
<br />tical phenomena, .exoessive preoipitation, radiation, storms of
<br />all kinds, temperature of snow, soil and water.
<br />If tables of observations contain but two subjects, e. g.,
<br />pressure and temperature, eaoh is indexed separately under
<br />its proper heading. Tables oontaining more than two sub~
<br />jects are entered bu~ once (in addition to the entry under lo-
<br />cation), under the general heading H Observations,'-' except
<br />that the following are indexed separately wherever they oc-
<br />cur: auroras, drought, evaporation, fog; frost, halos, .Dumber
<br />of days with precipitation, ozone, radiation, snow, sunshine,
<br />temperature of soil and water, thunderstorms, and (under
<br />clouds) number of clear, partly cloudy, snd clqudy days,
<br />The letters a, h, 0, d, refer to the 1st, 2d, 3d, and 4th quar-
<br />ters of the page, respectively, and indicate a brief Dote or
<br />reference. .
