Unpublished paper, 'On a remarkable depression of the barometer in November 1840, agreeing very closely in its movements and results with that of December 1821' by Luke Howard Howard observes the close correspondence of the 'remarkable depression' of the barometer in the months of October and November of 1840, and of the remarkably stormy weather which prevailed at the same period, with similar phenomena occurring in December 1821, when the moon’s place in declination underwent the same changes during those two periods, at an interval of nineteen years. Includes tables of barometric readings for the months of November 1821, December 1821, October 1840 and November 1840. Annotations in pencil throughout.
