Reports of the Greenland Expeditions of the University of Michigan

Abstract

THE more general reports upon the series of five expeditions to West Greenland undertaken by the University of Michigan between the summers of 1926 and 1933 are published in this volume. (Part I, which appeared in 1931, was limited to “Aërology, Expeditions of 1926 and 1927–29”; the originally planned third and fourth parts will not be published.) The present part is predominantly meteorological, but the five papers which comprise it cover such a wide range of subjects that they seem best considered separately; nor are they of similar value, or necessarily concerned with the same geographical region.
