Figure 33. Meyer slow registering thermometer invented by Dr. Adolph Meyer and first used on the POMMERANIA in 1871 and then by various German scientific studies. It was used down to 50 meters but would stay submerged for about an hour to register the proper temperature because it was highly insulated.
