The earliest instructions for weather observations in Bohemia from the 1st half of the 19th century. (A historical note)

Original language description

The paper is devoted to the history of meteorological observations in Bohemia in the first half of the 19th century in the context of such observations in the then central Europe. It concerns the time period between observations conducted by the Mannheim Meteorological Society and the foundation of the Central Institute for Meteorology and Geomagnetism in Vienna. In this period, two guidelines for weather observation were published in Prague in German (at that time the only official language in the Austrian Monarchy). The first one was issued in 1817 and its author was A. DAVID, director of the Prague astronomical observatory in Klementinum. The second one was issued in 1827 by the imperial-royal Patriotic-Economic Society in the Kingdom of Bohemia, and is devoted among other things also to the relation of weather to agriculture and forestry. It was compiled by a multitude of authors who are not mentioned though. The meteorological part is doubtlessly a work of Professor DAVID, too.
