American Institute of Physics. Center for History of Physics. History of Geophysics Project. Responses to History of Geophysics Survey, 1988.

Title: Responses to History of Geophysics Survey, 1988.

Responses to a survey of Fellows of the American Geophysical Union born before 1918, conducted by the American Institute of Physics (AIP) Center for History of Physics in 1988. Recipients were asked to send copies of their curriculum vitae and a list of publications as part one of the survey and were then asked to discuss their entry into science in general and geophysics specifically as a career; how their scientific achievements came about and major efforts they were involved in which did not achieve the hoped for results; changes from one discipline to another; funding sources; the role of other disciplines in their own research; their work as educators; and their involvement in geophysics related institutions. File includes responses from: Ralph Belknap Baldwin, Walter M. Elsasser, Irene Kaminka Fischer, Colin Oswald Hines, Benjamin F. Howell, Harold Jeffreys, Konrad Bates Krauskopf, Thomas Francis Malone, John Aloysius O'Keefe, Elburt Franklin Osborn, John Rodgers, Vincent Joseph Schaefer, Athelstan Frederick Spilhaus, William Sterling Von Arx, Donald Edward White, and John Tuzo Wilson.
