Letter from Arthur Thomas Doodson, regarding a paper 'Tides in oceans bounded by meridians IV. Series solutions in terms of angular width of ocean: semidiurnal tides in narrow oceans V. Solutions by use of finite differences: semidiurnal tides' by Arthur Thomas Doodson

Reference number: RR/66/73

Date: 07 October 1939

Description

Sectional Committee: Physics

Has considered the points raised by the referees, returns reports with his own remarks. Agrees with the opinions regarding binding of the tables, and has added an explanatory note to the paper. Wonders if the papers are now too short for the Philosophical Transactions, but would prefer if they were printed there with his other papers in the series.
