No other dispatches were made during the month.
Easterly and later northeasterly winds were common in the Greenland

was seen just within the jurisdiction of Greenland. No large floes were seen on radar beyond the ice edge.
No observations were received from ships but 3rd April one observation was received from land, reporting an ice berg in location 65°42' N 32°07'W.
On the Greenland Straight easterlies were predominant but occasionally strong southwesterly wind prevailed for a few days

series analysis
Regional series are compiled based on regions
having similar climatological characteristics and
streamflow regimes. These series are also useful
for evaluating patterns and trends, both in time and
by region. Regional series for precipitation,
temperature and runoff are being compiled,
updated and analysed within the CES project.

munity/the European Union provide an indication of trends in concern about cli-
mate change. Since 1992, such surveys have been undertaken among representative
samples of citizens in its Member States, and specifically on topics related to the
environment (Special Eurobarometers (EB) in 1992, 1995, 2002; and a Flash EB
in 2002). These have included

were dug, snow depth was measured at about 600points and ablation was measured on 30 stakes
evenly distri uted on the glacier (Liestøl 1967).Based on experience of the snow pattern, the ob-
