Physiographic Studies in the French Alps

Abstract

THE former of the two memoirs included in the publication before us is a report by MM. Flusin and Bernard upon an apparatus for boring into a glacier, devised by MM. Hess and Blümcke, the working of which they had studied on the Hintereisferner in the Austrian Tirol. As the scientific interest of this is at present more indirect than direct, we may pass on to the second memoir, “Etudes Glaciaires Géographiques et Botaniques dans le Massif des Grandes Rousses,” by MM. Flusin, Jacob, and Offner.
