Synopsis
E. Tengstrom G. Teleki The IAU symposium no 89, 'Refractional Influences in Astrometry and Geo desy' , was held at the University of Uppsala, Sweden, during August 1 through August 5, 1978. It was a joint meeting of IAU and lAG, cosponsor ed by lAG and IUGG. Considerable financial support was also given by the Swedish Natural Science Research Council, the Wallenberg Foundation in Stockholm and the University of Uppsala. The Scientific Organizing Committee included G. Teleki (chairman), W. Altenhoff (Bonn), P. Bender (Boulder), L. Hradilek (Prague), J.A. Hughes (Washington D.C.), J. Kakkuri (Helsinki), A.J. Nefedieva (Kazan), J. Saastamoinen (Ottawa), C. Sugawa (Mizusawa) and E. Tengstrom (Uppsala). The Local Organizing Committee included E. Tengstrom (chairman and con venor), I. Ohlsson (adm. secretary and treasurer), P. Hodacs, S-G. Martensson, S. Eklund and M. O'Shaughnessy, all from Up~sala. This symposium was the first international meeting of astronomers and geodesists connected with refraction phenomena. The proceedings of this symposium contain all papers accepted by its Scientific Organizing Committee, and all discussions around them to gether with all contributions during special workshops and round-table discussion programs., E.

- s***5 (7)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchasePurchased an expensive Eurofase chandelier at a very reasonable price and negotiated for shipping. I requested that seller hold on to it to avoid the Christmas rush. He added to original packaging at my request to ensure that it arrived in perfect condition as described. He communicated frequently through this process including sending pictures of original box and of shipping label. Was shocked at how quickly it arrived and in excellent condition.
