摘要:
On Thursday afternoon, October 25, 1984, Dr. David R. Wones, age 52, Professor at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Fellow of the American Geophysical Union and Secretary of the Volcanology, Geochemistry, and Petrology section 1961–1964, died in an automobile accident in Roanoke, Va. The ultimate cause of this accident is unknown.Dave gave of himself to mineralogy and petrology—in fact, to all of geology and to many colleagues—in a way few can match but that many have experienced and can appre

摘要:
A bill aimed at rebuilding and modernizing scientific research facilities at colleges and universities has received mixed reviews in the academic community. While university administrators seem to agree that research buildings and laboratories desperately need revitalization, some officials differ with the funding mechanism set forth in the proposed legislation.

摘要:
The Board on Earth Sciences will hold a briefing on geologic hazards for congressmen and congressional staff on October 18, 1985. The briefing will include a general discussion of geologic hazards, but will emphasize earthquake hazards.The Board on Earth Sciences is part of the National Research Council's Commission on Physical Sciences, Mathematics, and Resources. Joseph W. Berg, Jr., is executive secretary of the board.

摘要:
Large‐scale biogeographic trends in the distribution of marine zooplankton are the subject of this work. As the subtitle of this book clarifies, it is an illustrated compendium of distributional patterns rather than a taxonomic atlas of invertebrate zoology. About half the work is devoted to Mercator projection maps of global distribution of various species of zooplankton and of chemical and physical properties of their environment. The other half is a treatise on plankton ecology as it relates to speciatio

摘要:
An AGU Chapman Conference on Solar Wind‐Magnetosphere Coupling was held at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) of the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, February 12–15, 1985. There were 95 scientific papers presented at the meeting, and 135 participants were registered.The interaction between the solar wind and the earth's magnetic field creates a large magnetic cavity that is termed the magnetosphere. Energy derived from the solar wind and subsequently transferred to the inner magnetosphere is the primary source of various dynamic processes in the magnetosphere and also of many interesting phenomena observable from the earth's surface, such as magnetic and auroral substorms. The purpose of this conference was to bring together scientists from all areas of solar terrestrial physics, both theoretical and experimental, to promote the study of “coupling” among the different regions of the ge
