1858rif. 41120np 1858. 4 pp. Printed on recto of first page only. Inner pages blank. Addressed in ink on last page to Honble. Samuel W. Parker of the House of Representatives. Roughness to blank inner margin one short closed tear expertly repaired. Printed in two columns separated by a rule. Very Good. "Fair Play" is evidently a consortium of ocean mail steamers opposing efforts by competitors- - "sailing vessels or other ships propelled by steam"- - who seek government support to diminish the market for ocean mail steamers. Congressman Parker of Indiana served as such from 1851-1855. We suggest that this item was printed during that period. Not located on OCLC as of July 2025. unknown

Zöppritz presents a theoretical treatment of drif currents in "Hydrodynamische Probleme in Beziehung zur Theorie der Meeresströmungen." the paper offered. His neglect of the Coriolis force which he attempted to justify onthe basis of the slowness of movements of ocean currents leads to the conclusion that the wind-driven flow of the ocean is in the direction of the wind independent of the depth in the ocean with a speed which decreases with depth. The model is revised by Vagn Ekman after Fridtjof Nansen notes the defelction to the right of wind-induced sea ice-drift ans speculates that the cause derives from the earth's rotation."Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1878 E. unknown

Imprimerie de Monaco, 1895. In 4to grande, pp. 36 + 2 (Lègende de la Planche 1 e Lègende de la Planche 2 ) + le 2 tavole con veline sciolte, rispettivamente con 14 e 12 figure in litografia in colore, testo in francese, bross. edit. in carta muta protetta da velina recante i titoli e con alette di protezione. Importante raccolta di studi scientifici di biologia marina, realizzati sotto la direzione del Principe Alberto I di Monaco (Parigi, 1848 – Parigi, 1922). Alberto I, ancora molto giovane, ad appena ventidue anni, iniziò a coltivare la passione per le scienze naturali e in particolare per l'oceanografia. Si interessò ai nuovi strumenti che la tecnica metteva a disposizione per lo studio dei fondali marini, e con il sostegno di importanti scienziati compì studi oceanografici, realizzò mappe e carte nautiche. A lui si deve la fondazione di quello che sarebbe divenuto l'”Istituto Oceanografico” di Monaco, che include oggi un acquario, un museo e una biblioteca. Disponiamo di questo fascicolo VIII relativo a Epizoanthus, Caryophillia, Deltocyathus, Flabellum, Stephanotrochus, Balanophyllia. Piccole fioriture e alcune gualciture alla brossura, alcune fioriture marginali alla prima tavola, buono tutto l'interno, ancora intonso.
