本文对世纪中期巴黎天文台的气象工作进行了研究。从介绍到1850年法国和国外气象理论的状况开始，叙述开始于1853年布鲁塞尔会议，当时勒威耶被任命为法国最负盛名的天文机构的主任。比较法国和英国的做法，在两个风暴警报系统，开始于19世纪60年代，与他们的合作和竞争，以及他们各自的危机和暂停期间的帐户。本文的一个特别感兴趣的是法国专业气象学家的贡献，在数学和科学方面训练有素的巴黎高等师范学校，有关大气环流的理论的发展。
Summary This paper makes a study of the meteorological work of the Paris Observatory in the middle years of the nineteenth century. Starting with an introduction to the state of meteorological theory in France and abroad up to 1850, the account begins after the Brussels Conference of 1853 when Leverrier was appointed director of France's most prestigious astronomical establishment. Comparison is made between French and British practice in the two storm warning systems which began in the 1860s, together with an account of their cooperation and rivalry, and their separate crises and periods of suspension. A particular interest of this paper is the contribution by French professional meteorologists, highly trained in mathematics and science at the Ecole Normale Superieure, to the development of theories relating to the general circulation of the atmosphere.
