rates and oxygen isotope data from two equatorial Pacific 

 cores. Results of CLIMAP during last year will be published in 

 a special volume by the Geological Society of America. Papers 

 planned for inclusion in the volume are:

A symposium on work accomplished by CLIMAP investi- 

 gators was held November 12, 1973, at Dallas, Tex., during 

 the Annual Meeting of the Geological Society of America. 

 Abstracts of papers appear in Geol. Soc. Amer. Abstracts with 

 Programs, Vol. 5, No. 7, October 1972, 1973 Annual Meet- 

 ings, The Geological Society of America, Boulder, Colo. Inves- 

 tigators and titles are:

 Grace Irving: Radiolarian Estimated Sea Surface Tempera- 

 ture Map of the Atlantic and Western Indian Sectors of 

 the Antarctic Ocean at 17,000 Years B.P.

During the next year CLIMAP investigators plan to further 

 refine the 18,000-year-ago data base for another numerical 

 experiment. There also will be studies of high-deposition-rate 

 cores from the Santa Barbara Basin and Curacao Trench. 

 Results are to be presented at the SCOR symposium on Ma- 

 rine Plankton and Sediments in Kiel, West Germany, in Sep- 

 tember 1974. A second international CLIMAP meeting will 

 be held in Amsterdam in September 1974.
