## Abstract 1. The wind regime at Melbourne is described, the prevalence of Northβwesterly winds at all levels being emphasised. 2. The mean rate of ascent is shown to be above that given by J. S. Dines's formula near the surface but below it above 200 metres. 3. There is an annual variation in t
## Abstract The pilotβballoon ascents for a period of ten years are analysed in order to study the sea breeze effect on upper winds from the surface to 5,500 feet. When sea breezes replace land breezes during the course of the day, the vector change in speed normal to the coast is in the order of 1
