Abstract
UNDER the heading “Effect of the Moon on Barometric Pressure” a summary appeared in NATURE of November 16, 1935, p. 800 of a paper by R. A. Robb and T. R. Tannahill1 entitled “The Lunar Atmospheric Pressure Inequalities at Glasgow”. A remarkable feature of their results, to which attention was directed, was the relatively large magnitude of the diurnal amplitude compared with that of the semi-diurnal amplitude, the two being in the ratio of more than four to one.
