An English translation of Margules' somewhat earlier paper, "Uber die Schwingungen periodisch erwarmter Luft," Ibid., vol. 99, 205-227; 1890, which also deals with large-scale atmospheric oscillations, especially with the diurnal and semidiurnal barometric variations, has been given in "The Mechanics of the Earth's Atmosphere" by Cleveland Abbe (Smithsonian Miscell. Coll. no. 843, 1893). Show less
