| Title | Letter from Heinrich Wilhelm Dove, Berlin to [Edward Sabine] |
| Date | 24 September 1847 |
| Description | Dove thanks Sabine for sending the temperature observations from St Helena. The sender apologises for not sending his meteorological (temperature) tables yet as he has been working on their Fahrenheit reductions, some of which are already available in the German edition. He provides an update on his meteorological research and his plan to compile his work into one volume, which should act as a meteorological manual of sorts. References a report on atmospheric waves (and proceeds to remember a recent trip to Heligoland). |
