Abstract
Tiberius Cavallo, F. R. S. Who was nominated by the President and Council to prosecute Discoveries in Natural History, pursuant to the Will of the late Henry Baker, Esq. F. R. S. Having been appointed by the President and Council of the Royal Society to write the annual dissertation, pursuant to the institution of Henry Baker, Esq. F.R.S. I determined to present to the Society the following account of some thermometrical experiments and observations, the greatest part of which were made as long ago as the year 1776. The course of those experiments having been often interrupted by mechanical defects in the construction of instruments, and by various other circumstances, must not be considered as complete investigations of the proposed views, but rather as first attempts, which are to be prosecuted in case of better opportunities.Keywords
