Excerpt from Annalen des K. K. Naturhistorischen Hofmuseums, 1894, Vol. 9: Mit 22 Tafeln und 34 Abbildungen im Texte Obwohl der gesammte Archipel selbst im Winter vollständig der Passatzone an gehört, bestehen doch vermöge der angegebenen Höhendifferenzen zwischen beiden Inselgruppen auch klimatische Contraste. Auf den westlichen Inseln steigern nämlich regelmässige, selbst in der heissesten Jahresperiode (august bis Mitte September) auf tretende Nebelbildungen einerseits die jährliche Niederschlagsmenge, verringern aber andererseits die Temperaturschwankungen, so dass die westlichen Inseln selbst in ihren Küstengebieten ein mildes Klima mit mittleren J ahrestemperaturen von 19 - 24 Grad C. Und ausreichende Regenmengen besitzen. Auf den östlichen Inseln hingegen, wo die Nebelbildungen nur in sehr unvollkommener Weise stattfinden, herrscht zufolge der subtropischen Lage und des häufig eintretenden, aus der Sahara kommenden Ost windes im Allgemeinen ein heisses Klima, und können Jahre ohne ausgiebigen Regen ver?iessen.

Hauer was born on January 30, 1822 in Vienna, Austria, the son of Joseph von Hauer (1778-1863), who was equally distinguished as a high Austrian official and authority on finance and as a palaeontologist.
Hauer was educated in Vienna, afterwards studied geology at the mining academy of Schemnitz (1839-1843).
For a time Hauer was engaged in official mining work in Styria. In 1846 he became assistant to Wilhelm von Haidinger at the mineralogical museum in Vienna; three years later he joined the imperial geological institute, and in 1866 he was appointed director. In 1886, he became superintendent of the Imperial Natural History Museum in Vienna. Among his special geological works are those on the Cephalopoda of the Triassic and Jurassic formations of Alpine regions (1855-1856). His most important general work was that of the Geological Map of Austro-Hungary, in twelve sheets (1867-1871; 4th ed. 1884, including Bosnia and Montenegro). This map was accompanied by a series of explanatory pamphlets. He died in Vienna on March 20, 1899.
