 Leopold, Luna B. (Luna Bergère), 1915-2006
 Title:  Luna Bergere Leopold Papers     
 Dates:  circa 1909-2006, bulk 1931-2006 
 Abstract:  Luna Bergere Leopold (1915-2006, APS 1972), son of prominent conservationist Aldo Leopold (1887-1948), worked during seven decades to bring the field of hydrology and fluvial geomorphology into the conscience of urban planners and those who would restructure the flow of rivers and streams. He established the first practical, major field methods by which the geometry of streams and the waterflow in them are measured and how these data are analyzed. His work is based on meticulous field studies over the course of a multifaceted career as a meteorologist, hydrologist, geomorphologist, professor, and conservationist. This collection comprises his extensive incoming correspondence and other papers mostly during his active retirement years (1986-2006), with some earlier papers. The collection also contains his profusely illustrated personal journal in 12 volumes (1931-2003) that include world travels; some 70 field notebooks (1937-2006) embracing localities in the Western and Northeastern United States, in Hawaii, and some foreign locations (chiefly in India and Israel); more than a hundred original plane table maps from locales in the United States; a significant set of correspondence and papers (1956-1986) from hydrologist and sedimentologist Ralph Alger Bagnold (1896-1990), who in his own right was a pioneer in modern sedimentology and hydrology; and publications and manuscripts over the course of Leopold's multidisciplined career.

5Creator:  Guyot, A., (Arnold), 1807-1884Requires cookie*
 Title:  Arnold Guyot Collection     
 Dates:  1857-1882 
 Abstract:  One of the most prominent scientific refugees from the political turmoil of 1848, Arnold Guyot made fundamental contributions to the study of geology, glaciology, and meteorology on two continents. After emigrating to the United States, Guyot established himself as Professor of Geology and Physical Geography at Princeton, remaining untilhis death in 1884. The Guyot Collection consists of 61 letters written by Louis Agassiz (15 items), his wife Elizabeth (32), and their son Alexander (14), to their friend and fellow naturalist, Arnold Guyot. Primarily personal in nature, the letters reflect a long and intimate friendship, making frequent mention of family and mutual friends. There is, however, comparatively little in the collection relating to their respective scientific endeavors, with only a few references to the situation at the Museum of Comparative Zoology and at Princeton, to publications of various sorts, to the difficulties of their mutual friend Leo Lesquereux, and to other colleagues.

 Title:  George Alexander Louis Lebour Papers     
 Dates:  1852-1914 
 Abstract:  Geologist George Alexander Louis Lebour was a minor figure in nineteenth century England. Educated at the Royal School of Mines, Lebour served as Professor of Geology at Durham College of Science and then Vice-Principal of Armstrong College, formerly Durham College of Science and presently University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne. He was most associated with his publication on the geology of Durham and Northumberland and he wrote more then 100 papers mainly on carboniferous geology, heat-conductivity of rocks, and the transfer of heat through the earth's crust. The Lebour Papers are comprised of 0.25 linear feet of correspondence relating to Lebour's interest in the analysis and sharing of geological specimens, geological surveying, and underground temperatures. There are a few letters with the Geological Society of London and with Richard Howse, the curator of the Natural History museum of Newcastle-upon-Tyne regarding the loaning of specimens.

 Dates:  1888-1955 
 Abstract:  The Charles Christopher Adams papers include correspondence, diaries, field notes, manuscripts, and photographs, all reflecting Adams' interests in biology, ecology and human ecology, geography, and zoology. The field notebooks are extensive, spanning the years 1888-1948. Of special interest are those on the Adirondack regions, 1919-1948 (2 boxes) and from his Latin American trip of 1948. The photographs are both family and professional, with many from his numerous field trips. Of significance are the photos and negatives from the Roosevelt Wild Life Experiment Station (N.Y. State College, Syracuse) and from the University of Montana Biological Station at Flathead Lake, Montana (1913). There is much personal correspondence with Wilda P. Mackenzie. A part of the collection pertains to his daughter, Harriet Adams, including exchanges with the Charles C. Adams Center for Ecological Studies at Western Michigan University, and her unfinished biography of her father.
