Carl Linnaeus stayed on Gotland for about a month, and then returned to Uppsala. During this expedition, they found 100 previously unrecorded plants. The observations from the expedition were later published in ', written in Swedish. Like ', it contained both zoological and botanical observations, as well as observations concerning the culture in Öland and Gotland. During the summer of 1745, Linnaeus published two more books: ' and '. ' was a strictly botanical book, while ' was zoological. Anders Celsius had created the temperature scale named after him in 1742. Celsius' scale was inverted compared to today, the boiling point at
Wedgwood scale of temperature. He also determined the melting points of three metals, namely copper (27 °W or ), silver (28 °W or ) and gold (32 °W or ). All these values are at least too high. Louis-Bernard Guyton de Morveau used his pyrometer to evaluate the temperature scale of Wedgwood and came to the conclusion that the starting point should be significantly lower, at instead of , and that the steps should be nearly halved from to no more than . However, even after this revision the Wedgwood measurements overestimated the melting points of elements. Wedgwood scale The Wedgwood scale
