Published in 1861–3, this three-volume work, compiled by Karl von Scherzer (1821–1903), documents the first globe-spanning scientific expedition of the Austrian navy in 1857–9. The investigations conducted during this voyage laid the foundations for future research in various fields and are still being studied by modern-day scientists.
