Description
Sectional Committee: Not stated [Physics]
The paper has been accepted and the referees believe it contains no information of value to the enemy. Requests opinions on this point however, as the subject would be of use to the construction of British Admiralty Charts for navigation. Are magnetic measurements at sea important for the laying of minefields?
