The Irving Langmuir Laboratory for Atmospheric Research, established last year by the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, is currently engaged in a variety of research programs relating to cloud physics and thunderstorm phenomena. During the International Quiet Sun Years of 1964 and 1965, the Laboratory is cooperating with the Joint Committee on Atmospheric and Space Electricity of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics by making data available for use in an international effort to correlate the basic parameters of atmospheric electricity on a world‐wide scale.
