Reversed-polarity glacial sediments and revised glacial chronology, West Branch Susquehana River Valley, central Pennsylvania
The reversed remanent magnetic polarity of glacial and glaciolacustrine sediments at Antes Fort allows for revision of the chronology of pre-Wisconsinan glaciation in central Pennsylvania.

Class dealignment and the regional polarization of voting patterns in Great Britain, 1964-1987
Survey data relating to each British general election over this period 19 are used to test the frequency-claimed assumption that regional polarization increased over the period. The results indicate that class polarization remains strong

The targets of the First Polar Year (August 1, 1882-September 1, 1883) and the Second Polar Year (August 1, 1932-September 1, 1933) and the International Geophysical Year (1958) are summarized and forms and results of international cooperation
Magnetic polarity stratigraphy of the Pleistocene section at Portland (Victoria), Australia
Three to seven oriented paleomagnetic samples were collected from 16 sites in the Nelson Bay and Bridgewater formations, which contains the recently discovered Nelson Bay local fauna. The entire section has reversed polarity. These results
and the presence of underlying middle Pliocene dated basalts, indicate that the Portland section, was deposited within the late Matuyama Chron between 1.66 and 0.73 myr ago. In addition, the reversed polarity for the Bridgewater Formation confirms the previous

Geography of polar regions
Field studies by the A. in Svalbard, Greenland and northern Canada and earlier publications show that all phenomena of characteristic and forms can widely be observed in polar regions. It is not an accidental convergence of forms, but the evidence
Alfred Wegener, from research in Greenland to plate tectonics in Polar research.
The life of the most famous German polar researcher is described. The investigations during his four journeys to Greenland are considered in detail. Through his hypothesis concerning the drift of the continents derived from localizations
in the polar region and the collection of numerous arguments of various geoscientific aspects Alfred Wegener has stimulated the modern, mobilistic conception of plate tectonics. (Ed.).

The dynamics of polar jet streams as depicted by the METEOSAT WV channel radiance field
A polar jet stream flowing over northern Europe (14 july 1978) is investigated using both the radiosounding network and the Meteosat water vapor (WV) channel imagery. A maximum radiance band associated with the polar jet stream is shown
