Meteorological observations made at Winter Quarters Bay, Antarctica, by Louis Bernacchi Rough copy daily observations of atmospheric electricity, with accompanying meteorological information. Recording the date and time of observations, temperature, wind, and clouds; with earth and air electricity readings, and occasional general remarks. Initial observations [pp.3-5] were made on board the SS Discovery [28 December 1901], and off Coulman Island [16 January 1902]. The next note [p.7] is 'Feb 10 1902 on shore, Winter Quarters, McMurdo Sound'. Subsequent observations are likely to have been taken at the same location, known as Winter Quarters Bay. A preliminary note on the instruments [p.1] describes two electrometers, initially in poor condiction, received from Mr. Ferrar: No. 81 and No. 35 made by G [James?] White of Glasgow. Made during National Antarctic Expedition 1901-1904 [the Discovery Expedition] led by Captain Robert Falcon Scott. Label to inner front end-paper: 'Atmospheric Electricity. L Bernacchi'.
