Annals of the International Geophysical Year, Volume IIB: The International Geophysical Year Meetings provides the general report and resolutions made on four meetings during the International Geophysical Year. This book is composed of four parts encompassing 13 chapters. The first part covers the four CSAGI Antarctic Conferences, followed by the CSAGI Arctic Conference held in Stockholm, Sweden on May 22-25, 1956. The remaining two parts consider the CSAGI Regional and Discipline Conferences. This book is of value to geophysicists and researchers in the field.

Annals of the International Geophysical Year, Volume 48: Bibliography and Index contains bibliography of articles published in connection with the International Geophysical Year (IGY). The preparatory and operational phases of the IGY occupied nearly a decade and the data accumulated in the many scientific disciplines by workers in some 67 countries will provide material for publication for many years. The references have been assembled from information supplied by a wide variety of sources. These references have been grouped into 21 sections, of which Sections I-XIV followed the discipline grouping adopted during the IGY. Within each section references have been arranged in alphabetical order according to the name of the principal author. Anonymous articles are listed at the end of each section, again arranged in alphabetical order by title. In the scientific literature, author's names originally printed in Cyrillic symbols sometimes appear with several different spellings because of the use of different transliteration systems. In the present Bibliography an attempt has been made to achieve consistency by using the same transliteration system throughout. This book will prove useful to geophysicists and researchers who are interested in the accomplishments of the International Geophysical Year.

Annals of the International Geophysical Year, Volume 34: Solar Radio Emission During the International Geophysical Year covers the significant solar radio emission events observed during the International Geophysical Year (IGY). This book is composed of six chapters, and begins with a summary of tabulated quantities describing solar radio emission during the IGY. The tabulated figures illustrate the method of recording the position of radio sources on the sun, the use of symbols in describing the structure of bursts observed at single frequencies, and the different types used in a spectral classification of solar activity. The next chapters describe large solar-terrestrial disturbances seen during the IGY. The concluding chapter provides the statistical analysis derives from statistical spectra for several kinds of solar bursts at radio wavelengths and illustrates the sequence and mutual dependence of various manifestations of solar and terrestrial activity through correlograms for the IGY period.

Annals of the International Geophysical Year, Volume 32: Meteorology covers the various aspects of the International Geophysical Year/International Geophysical Cooperation's meteorological program, focusing on radiation measurement. This book is divided into seven sections, and begins with an overview of the meteorological program of the IGY and some related activities. The subsequent chapter outlines the program of radiation measurement planned for the IGY and the data received at World Data Center C for the IGY/IGC period. These topics are followed by discussions on observations of solar radiation flux from aircraft flux of the Meteorological Research Flight during the period of February 1958-January 1960. Other chapters provide tabulations of meteorological data from ozone stations with IGY station numbers arranged according to latitude, north to south. The concluding chapter is devoted to the IGY-IGC effort in the field of nuclear radiation. This book will prove useful to geophysicists and researchers in the field.

Annals of the International Geophysical Year, Volume X: The Fifth Meeting and the Termination of CSAGI reflects the activities at the Fifth Meeting of the CSAGI concerning the World Days, meteorology, geomagnetism, aurora, airglow, and ionosphere. This work also covers other IGY activities and observations related to solar activity, cosmic rays, latitudes, longitudes, glaciology, oceanography, rockets, satellites, seismology, gravimetry, and nuclear radiation. This book also provides information on the termination of the CSAGI and the formation of the special committee for the inter-union cooperation in geophysics. This book will be of value to geophysicists, historians, and researchers.
