TABLE III.
BAROMETRIC READINGS IN MILLIMETERS.—
ALTITUDES IN METERS.
This is from Radau’s table. The formula for calculation of difference of altitude of two stations is
in which D is the difference of height in meters, h and h' are barometer readings in millimeters and t and t' are the temperatures in centigrade degrees.
