An interesting account Of the work done
In Iceland by the Danish expedition which
was led by Herr Paulsen has just been
communicated to the Scientific Society of
Copenhagen. The main object of the eX-
pedition was to study the northern light,
or aurora borealis, and its observations for
this purpose were taken from the summit
of Mount Sulur, on which small hut had
been erected at q height of 1000 feet Not
without extreme difficulty was this hut
constructed. The mountain being very
steep, it had to be taken up In thirty sec
tions, each section being placed on a sledge,
which was drawn to the summit by a mem
ber of the expedition. A fitting place for 1t
also was not easily found. as fearful
storms rage around this mountain top.
and any totally unprotected building would
speedily be wrecked by them. Finally they
found a sheltered spot, and, building the
hut there, they made 1t their home.
They had planned to take observations on
fifty-three days, but only on four was the
weather favorable for such work. Yet even
during this brief time they made some not
able discoveries Their aim was to ascer-
tain the regular course Of electricity in the
air and the manner in which 1t Is Influenced
by the north light. They were quickly en-
abled to prove that the electrical intensity
increases from the morning until 2 O'Clock
in the afternoon, and then decreases until
it becomes very slight during the evening
and night They also learned that only
exceptionally vivid north lights in the vi
cinity of the zenith exercise any marked
influence on the air. Furthermore, by
means Of photographs. they discovered sew
eral new lines in the spectrum of the north
light, eight of which were ultraviolet.
Their observation in regard to the height
of the north lights satisfied them that such
Phenomena only take place at very great
distance above the earth. This is also the
opinion of Herr Lehnardt. the German me-
teorologist, who has devoted much time to
the study OF the aurora borealis.
