Manual Of Barometry 1963

It is the purpose of this manual to provide instructions to those concerned with various operational practices relating to barometry, and to present scientific and technical information pertinent to the subject regarded in a rather broad sense. As a matter of choice it is considered that altimetry may be properly regarded as falling within the province of this work. On these grounds the manual serves not only the meteorologist and the laboratory technician, but also those persons concerned with the various aviation and scientific aspects of the subject, together with the interested citizen.
