Abstract. The physician Leonardo Vordoni recorded sea heights at Trieste from 1782 to 1794 because of his interest in studying the connections between tides and the course of diseases that he attributed to the same forces. The data, expressed in Paris feet and inches (1 ft = 12 in. = 32.4845 cm), consist of heights measured on a pole, relative to the green algae belt corresponding to the mean high water. The measurements were reported in a manuscript that was recently found in the correspondence received by Giuseppe Toaldo, an astronomer in Padua. The observations were made twice a day until June 1791 and more frequently afterwards; the data from July 1791 onwards reasonably describe both the astronomical tide and the inverted-barometer (IB) effect. The low frequency of observations and poor metadata information seriously limit the scientific value of the data set, which, therefore, has mainly a historical value. In comparisons with modern data, the amplitude of sea level variations appears rather large, as if a unit shorter than the Paris foot was used. Moreover, an anomalously large decadal trend exists, which might be due to the pole sinking into the sea floor. The sea heights were digitized and are available through SEANOE (SEA scieNtific Open data Edition; https://doi.org/10.17882/62598 ; Raicich, 2019a).

的里雅斯特（亚得里亚海北部）的1782＆＃8211; 1794海平面记录

摘要。医生莱昂纳多·沃多尼（Leonardo Vordoni）从1782年到1794年记录了的里雅斯特的海高，因为他对研究潮汐和他归因于相同力量的疾病进程之间的联系感兴趣。数据以巴黎英尺和英寸（1英尺= 12英寸= 32.4845厘米）表示，由在极上测得的相对于绿藻带的高度（对应于平均高水位）组成。在帕多瓦的一位天文学家朱塞佩·托尔多（Giuseppe Toaldo）收到的信件中最近找到了一份手稿，报告了测量结果。每天进行两次观测，直到1791年6月，此后更加频繁。1791年7月以后的数据合理地描述了天文潮和反向气压计（IB）的影响。观测频率低和元数据信息差严重限制了数据集的科学价值，因此，它主要具有历史价值。与现代数据相比，海平面变化的幅度似乎相当大，好像使用的单位短于巴黎英尺。此外，存在异常大的年代际趋势，这可能是由于极杆沉入海床。海平面高度已数字化，可通过SEANOE（SEA科学开放数据版； https：//doi.org/10.17882/62598； Raicich，2019a）获得。这可能是由于杆子沉入海床。海平面高度已数字化，可通过SEANOE（SEA科学开放数据版； https：//doi.org/10.17882/62598； Raicich，2019a）获得。这可能是由于杆子沉入海床。海平面高度已数字化，可通过SEANOE（SEA科学开放数据版； https：//doi.org/10.17882/62598； Raicich，2019a）获得。
