IACS: past, present, and future of the International Association of Cryospheric Sciences
Abstract. The International Association of Cryospheric Sciences (IACS) became the
eighth and most recent association of IUGG at the general assembly in
Perugia, Italy, in July 2007. IACS was launched in recognition of the
importance of the cryosphere within the Earth system, particularly at a time
of significant global change. It was the first new association of the union
to be formed in over 80 years and IACS celebrated its 10th anniversary only a
year before the IUGG centennial. The forbearers of IACS, however, stretch
back even further than IUGG, starting with the formation of the Commission
Internationale des Glaciers (CIG) by the International Geological Congress in
1894. Here we record the history of the transition from CIG to IACS, the
scientific objectives that drove activities and changes, and some of the key
events and individuals involved.
期刊介绍:
The scope of History of Geo- and Space Sciences (HGSS) is to document historical facts and knowledge and to improve awareness of the history of geoscience. The knowledge of the development of geosciences and their experimental methods and theories in the past can improve our current understanding and may stimulate current research. It is encouraging for young scientists to read biographical material of historical figures in their research area. It is important as well to learn that history of science is an integrated part of the ongoing research in their research area. Another important aim of the journal is the association of historical retrospective and current research.
