| Title | Referee's report by Thomas Edward Thorpe, on a paper 'Observations on arctic sea-water and ice' by Edward Lawton Moss |
| Date | 21 May 1878 |
| Description | Not recommended for publication in the 'Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society'. The results are not sufficiently conclusive. Refers to work by hemself and Arthur William Rucker, published in the Philosophical Transactions for 1876. Refers to work of Hubbard [?]. Has met with members of the Dutch Polar Expedition. Suggests that all results of polar studies should be 'uniformly stated'. Suggests the current paper uses an inconvenient standard.
