Proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment, volume 1
These Proceedings contain papers presented at the Eighth International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment, held October 2nd through 6th, 1972, on the campus of the University of Michigan. The symposium was conducted by the Center for Remote Sensing Information and Analysis of the Environmental Research Institute of Michigan (formerly the University of Michigan's Willow Run Laboratories) as a part of a continuing program investigating current activities in the field of remote sensing. Presentations include those on the use of this technology by regional governmental units and by federal governmental agencies, as well as various applications in monitoring and managing the earth's resources and man's global environment. Ground-based, airborne, and spaceborne sensor systems and manual and machine-assisted data analysis and interpretation are included.

Proceedings of the 2nd Annual Workshop on Meteorological and Environmental Inputs to Aviation Systems
The proceedings of a workshop held at the University of Tennessee Space Institute, Tullahoma, Tennessee, March 28-30, 1978, are reported. The workshop was jointly sponsored by NASA, NOAA, FAA, and brought together many disciplines of the aviation communities in round table discussions. The major objectives of the workshop are to satisfy such needs of the sponsoring agencies as the expansion of our understanding and knowledge of the interactions of the atmosphere with aviation systems, as the better definition and implementation of services to operators, and as the collection and interpretation of data for establishing operational criteria, relating the total meteorological inputs from the atmospheric sciences to the needs of aviation communities.

Proceedings: Third Annual Workshop on Meteorological and Environmental Inputs to Aviation Systems
The proceedings of a workshop on meteorological and environmental inputs to aviation systems are reported. The major objectives of the workshop are to satisfy such needs of the sponsoring agencies as the expansion of our understanding and knowledge of the interaction of the atmosphere with aviation systems, the better definition and implementation of services to operators, and the collection and interpretation of data for establishing operational criteria, relating the total meteorological inputs from the atmospheric sciences to the needs of aviation communities. The unique aspect of the workshop was the achievement of communication across the interface of the boundaries between pilots, meteorologists, training personnel, accident investigators, traffic controllers, flight operation personnel from military, civil, general aviation, and commercial interests alike. Representatives were in attendance from government, airlines, private agencies, aircraft manufacturers, Department of Defense, industries, research institutes, and universities. Full-length papers addressed the topics of training, flight operations, accident investigation, air traffic control, and airports. Winds and wind shear; icing and frost; atmospheric electricity and lightning; fog, visibility and ceilings; and turbulence were discussed.

Texas Symposium on Relativistic Astrophysics, 10th, Baltimore, MD, December 15-19, 1980, Proceedings
The present conference on relativistic astrophysics begins with consideration of such topics in the cosmology of the early universe as the implications of the neutrino rest mass, relic neutrino clustering, and the possibility of a matter-antimatter domain structure in the universe, and proceeds to the broader cosmological questions of the distances of extragalactic objects, the mass of the universe, and the dynamics of superclusters. Also considered are the cosmic microwave background, relativistic jet production and propagation in active galaxies, gravitational lenses, positron annihilation radiation from the galactic center region, supernova models, and the acceleration of cosmic rays by shock waves. Summaries are presented in closing, on workshops concerning such topics as gravitational radiation detectors, the UV cosmic ray background, pulsars, supernovae, active galaxies, and quasars.
