The German and the British Greenland expeditions of 1930–31 gave to the world the first continuous records of meteorological conditions within the cold interior region of the Greenland glacial anticyclone [see 1 of “References” at end of paper]. Of the two expeditions the former was much the more important, for the reason that its station was manned by experienced and very competent meteorologists who were provided with some aerological equipment, and it was in operation [2] continuously for slightly more than a year (August 1, 1930, to August 8, 1931).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
