THE NUMERICAL TABLES OF THE INDIAN PROVINCES.
The ten geographical groups formed. — Tabular arrangement. — The provincial climate.—-Meteorological part of the
sanitary conditions and sanitaria.
The stations I Lave arranged in geographical groups, according to the provinces
indicated already on our Route-map by dotted contours. Following the principal
geographical features, they are larger than the ordinary political divisions and sub-
divisions; therefore, besides not being so variable, they coincide better with the
modifications of the physical character to be described.
The number of the stations in India (not including the Himalaya and Tibet, but
some stations of the southern regions being added for comparison) is 250, and their
distribution is the following:
1. Easteen India: 1. Assam, 2. Khassia-hills................... 13
2. Bengal and Bahab, and Delta of the Ganges and Brahmaputra....... 40
3. Hindostan: the upper Grangetic plain...................... 28
4. Panjab, including the stations west of the Indus............... 25
5. Westebn India: Rajvara, Grujrat, Kach, Sindh................. 15
G. Centeal India: Berar, Orissa, Malva, Bandelkkand.............. 20
7. Southeen India, Mountainous Distbicts: 1. Dekkan and Maissur, 2. Mlgiris 41
8. Southeen India, Coasts: Konkan, Malabar, Karnatik............. 28
9. Ceylon......................................... 11
10. Indo-Chinese Peninsula, Indian Aechipelago, and China.......... £9
The resulting means are put together in a general synopsis on Plate I. of the
Illustrations of the Indian Meteorology; and their graphical combination forms the
object of Plates II. and III.
