IV WORLDWIDE DIRECTORY OF NATIONAL EARTH-SCIENCE AGENCIES

Compiled by Anne Lucas Folk and Ralph L. Miller

INTRODUCTION This directory was originally planned and prepared for internal use to provide the Geological Survey (USGS) with a ready reference to earth- science bureaus around the world that have functions similar to those of one or more of the operating divisions of the USGS. Experience has indi cated, however, that the directory fills a much broader need; hence, it has been updated and enlarged for publication. The compilers recognize that many more earth-science organizations than are listed here are doing work similar to that of the USGS. To keep the directory to a convenient size, however, only governmental institutions have been listed for each country; of these, we include only one, or at most a very few, of those whose functions match or overlap those of one or more divisions of the USGS. Wherever feasible, names of agencies in countries whose languages are based primarily on the Latin alphabet are given in the language of the country. English translations have been added in brackets where they seem necessary for easy understanding. Names of agencies in countries whose languages utilize an alphabet other than the Latin are given in English. The principal functions of the USGS and of the agencies in the di rectory are indicated by the following code: G = Geology C = Cartography H = Hydrology R = Minerals and petroleum regulation This directory is based on information available to the compilers in the summer of 1974. It undoubtedly has some errors and some serious omissions. In addition, some changes will have taken place since it was compiled. The compilers will appreciate having such changes or errors called to their attention by users. DIRECTORY
