Abstract
IN my last letter to NATURE, vol. xxxiii. p. 460, on the subject of upper winds, I described the circulation of the Indian Ocean from the equator, where the north-west wind changes into the north-east monsoon, as far north as Ceylon, in the month of February. From there, about the beginning of March, I took a section of the weather, as nearly straight as practicable, from Colombo, through Calcutta, and 400 miles due north to Darjeeling.
