Abstract
In order either to support or to cast doubt upon the mode of study of the circulation of the solar photosphere recently employed by Ward, a comparable use of his methods is made in a test study of the terrestrial atmosphere for which extensive investigations by independent procedures are available. In a qualified over-all manner, Ward's procedures for measuring the large-scale horizontal eddy components from sunspot displacements are given vindication.
