N. Denisou, it Canadian, yvho is a care- ful, earnest, plodding scientist of Victoria, B.C., and who is in the em- ploy of the Goverment observatory there. !rwo years ago Mr. Denison address- • ed a meeting of the British Associa, tion of Advanced Science at Belfast on "The etfeets of atmospheric .pres- sure on the earth's snrface," but at that time he could do no more tbakr ' interest his colleagues, heel:Luse he had not the necessary data to lay be- • fore them toprove his theories. Sir George Darwin, who is now the presi- dent of the great British Asseciation, • became deeply interested, however, and advised Mr, Denison to procure another instrument and carry his ideas further. • The Government sup- plied the instrument, and the obser- vatory man settled down to work. His instruments are barometers and -seismographs. The territoryhe covered totals 2,000 square miles, from California to the Yuko. He -kept recos• for th-e'pasi year, and came down to the meeting of the Royal, Astronomieal Society of Can- ada recently armed with much in- formation. • His findings in brief were that the earth's surface is periodically de- pressed and elevated, and that these Movements are brought about by the. variations of atmospheric Pressure as well as 'to changes of temperature. /it the winter time, and during the cold weather the movements • were south and east, and. during the hot weather west and north. That is to say, he found that the elevations and depressions' were. governed largely • by weather conditions, over a vast • extent of territory. His findings will be of great prim - tical service in helping out the work • of forecasting the weather. His bat- oraeters will tell him just what the temperature will be in his own die, • trict and his- instruments will tell him what it well be over a large dis- trict, thus doing away with all the trouble of -calling up different centres coinpere notes. • • ' -Statistics.
