If tlie lowest mean of the two years following the Krakatoa eruption expresses the maximum effect of the dust veil, we must say that this maximum effect was not simultaneous at the different stations taken into consideration. The following tabulation gives the periods, as well as the lowering of the liiean below the value of the last unaffected consecutive mean. ^ Singapore from : "Met. obs. at the foreign and colonial stations of the Royal Engi- neers. . ; London, 1890. The other stations from: "Report on the meteorology of India in 1S80. .;.
