The publisher's corrections listed at the end of Volume III have been applied.

Within the range of the current, Mr. Dirckinck had carried on his observations in compliance with my instructions, by means of thermometers that had been compared by Arago. Everywhere in the current, in December 1824, he found from 16° to 18° (68° to 72°·5 Fahr.); between Quilca and Callao, in January, 1825, from 18° to 19° (72° 5′ to 74° 75′ Fahr.); between Chorillos, near Lima (Lat. 12° 39′ S.) and Valparaiso, in August, 1825, from 13° 8′ to 10° 5′ (63°·05 to 5° 62′ Fahr.); between Chorillos and San Carlos de Chiloe, in June, 1825, from 18° 8′ to 9° 2′ (74° 3′ to 52° 7′). The corrected paragraph is as follows: Between the Gulfs of Guayaquil and Panama, north-east of the cold current, the temperature of the sea during the month of April rose as high as 24°·5, (87°·12 Fahr.). Within the range of the current, Mr. Dirckinck had carried on his observations in compliance with my instructions, by means of thermometers that had been compared by Arago.
