Abstract
ANYONE who has examined carefully the meteorological elements of any country, whether they deal with pressure or rainfall, will have noticed that the curves formed by plotting the values for consecutive winter or summer seasons, or even for whole years, present a very wavy appearance. A closer inspection of such curves brings out the fact that they are really of a composite nature, and are made up by the superposition of waves of long and short lengths.
