Abstract

IN two recent notes in NATURE (vol. li. pp. 180, 468) attention has been drawn to the foundation by the Ottoman Government of a geodynamic section of the Imperial Meteorological Observatory at Constantinople. The new department has been placed under the direction of Dr. G. Agamennone, who for several years held a similar office at Rome, and who is well known to seismologists for the valuable work performed by him in Italy.
