A Hydrographic Approach to the Alps
• • 330 A HYDROGRAPHIC APPROACH TO THE ALPS A HYDROGRAPHIC APPROACH TO THE ALPS • • • PART III BY E. CODDINGTON SUB-SYSTEMS OF (ADRIATIC .W. NORTH SEA] BASIC SYSTEM ' • HIS is the only Basic System whose watershed does not penetrate beyond the Alps, so it is immaterial whether it be traced·from W. to E. as [Adriatic .w. North Sea], or from E. toW. as [North Sea . w. Adriatic]. The Basic Watershed, which also answers to the title [Po ~ w. Rhine], is short arid for purposes of practical convenience scarcely requires subdivision, but the distinction between the Aar basin (actually Reuss, and Limmat) and that of the Rhine itself, is of too great significance to be overlooked, to say nothing of the magnitude and importance of the Major Branch System involved. This gives two Basic Sections of very unequal dimensions, but the ., Alps being of natural origin cannot be expected to fall into more or less equal com partments. Two rather less unbalanced sections could be obtained by differentiating Ticino.- and Adda-drainage on the Po-side, but this would exhibit both hydrographic and Alpine inferiority. (1) BASIC SECTION SYSTEM (Po .W. AAR]. This System happens to be synonymous with (Po .w. Reuss] and with [Ticino .w. Reuss]. · The Watershed From .Wyttenwasserstock (E) the Basic Watershed runs generally E.N.E. to the Hiihnerstock, Passo Cavanna, Pizzo Luceridro, St. Gotthard Pass, and Pizzo Centrale; thence S.E. to the Giubing and Unteralp Pass, and finally E.N.E., to end in the otherwise not very notable Piz Alv .1 Offshoot in the Po ( Ticino) basin A spur runs W.S.W. -

One Hundred Years Ago (With Extracts from the Alpine Journal)
CA RUSSELL One Hundred Years Ago (with extracts from the Alpine Journal) (Plates 57-61) he fIrst attempt to ascend Mont Blanc in the twentieth centuryl was T made on Thursday, but without success. Even before the Pierre Pointue was reached the snow was found to be so deep that racquettes had to be used, while at the Grand Junction of the Glacier de Taconna progress was rendered very difficult from the same cause. On reaching Grands Mulets (10,007 feet), it was decided to give up the task of reaching the actual summit owing to the great depth of the snow and the intense cold, and signs ofwind. Moreover, one of the guides was suffering from frostbite. The party, consisting of Mr. Crofts and the guides Joseph Demarchi, Fran~ois Mugnier and Jules Monard spent the night at the Grands Mulets, and descended to Chamonix next morning. The severe conditions experienced by Mr Crofts' party on 17 January 1901 were prolonged by exceptionally cold winds which persisted for several weeks in many Alpine regions. Although little mountaineering was possi ble the fust ski ascents of two peaks were completed: on 30 March Henry Hoek and Ernst Schottelius climbed the Dammastock; and on 28 May Schottelius, accompanied by Friedrich Reichert, reached the summit of the Oberaarhorn. A period of fine weather which commenced in May prompted an early start to the climbing season and by the end of the fIrst week in June a number of successful expeditions had been completed. Throughout Switzerland glorious, warm weather is being experienced, and with it Alpine climbing has begun in real earnest. -
Book Reviews 1980
Rtvista dtl CmtTO dt lnvtstigacionts ArqutolOgicas dtA Ita Montana. Antonio Beorchia (Editor), Centro de Investigaciones Arqueol6gicas de Alta Montana, Republica del Lfbano 2621, Correo de Capit<in Lazo, (5423) San Juan. Frequency: 3 years. Latest issue: 1978 (number 3). This magazine is unique. Describes archaeological finds-mummies, corrals, pottery, ruins-discovered on the slopes and summits of mountains in the desert regions of Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, and Peru. VENEZUELA, COLOMBIA, and BOLIVIA. All mountain journals in these countries have ceased publication. Book Reviews 1980 Compiled by Geoffrey Templeman High Mountains and Cold Seas J. R. L. Anderson. (Victor Gollancz, 1980, pp366, photos and maps, £9.95). J. R. L. Anderson's biography of H. W. Tilman helps to fill out the story ofTilman's life for those who knew him only from his books. It also does much to dispel the legend of a silent misogynist who enjoyed hardship and underfeeding for their own sake; the truth is simply that he did not seek hardship, but could stand up to it when necessary better than most men, and complained less about it than the rest of . us do. Mr Anderson presents the story ofhis friend's life in a plain and straightforward way and is careful to tell what his sources are. High Mountains and Cold Stas is about as equally and as clearly divided as was Tilman's own life into the years of active soldiering in two World Wars, of exploratory mountaineering, and of ocean sailing in inhospitable waters. In addition there is a good deal about his background in childhood and youth, and in later life when his sister Adeline (Mrs Reid Moir) made a home for him near Barmouth. -
Comparative Political Data Set, 1960-2019 Codebook
1 Codebook: Comparative Political Data Set, 1960-2019 Codebook: COMPARATIVE POLITICAL DATA SET 1960-2019 Klaus Armingeon, Sarah Engler and Lucas Leemann The Comparative Political Data Set 1960-2019 (CPDS) is a collection of political and institutional data which have been assembled in the context of the research projects “Die Handlungsspielräume des Nationalstaates” and “Critical junctures. An international comparison” directed by Klaus Armingeon and funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation. This data set consists of (mostly) annual data for 36 democratic OECD and/or EU- member countries for the period of 1960 to 2019. In all countries, political data were collected only for the democratic periods.1 The data set is suited for cross-national, longitudinal and pooled time-series analyses. The present data set combines and replaces the earlier versions “Comparative Political Data Set I” (data for 23 OECD countries from 1960 onwards) and the “Comparative Political Data Set III” (data for 36 OECD and/or EU member states from 1990 onwards). A variable has been added to identify former CPDS I countries. For additional detailed information on the composition of government in the 36 countries, please consult the “Supplement to the Comparative Political Data Set – Government Composition 1960-2019”, available on the CPDS website. The Comparative Political Data Set contains some additional demographic, socio- and economic variables. However, these variables are not the major concern of the project and are thus limited in scope. For more in-depth sources of these data, see the online databases of the OECD, Eurostat or AMECO. When using data from this data set, please quote both the data set and, where appropriate, the original source. -

Tourist Guide.Pdf
COMACINA ISLAND PRESENTATION LAKE COMO TOURIST SYSTEM This tourist guide introduces one of the most beautiful areas in the region called Lombardy and enthusiastically welcomes all visitors who are planning to have an enjoyable stay here. Seen from above, the blue of the lakes and the green of the woods are the two colours which exist in harmony in this spectacular landscape full of panoramas. The lakes are the main characteristic of Como and Lecco provinces, surrounded by a range of important mountains which open up to the hilly countryside of Brianza to the South, the home to entrepreneurship. We had the idea of preparing a guide that was not only easy to use, but of high quality: therefore, you will find, alongside the usual cultural itineraries that inform you of our national heritage, practical information that can help you to easily discover our region and even the less known places. Subdivided into geographical areas of lake, mountain and plain, the Guide describes the entire territory of Como and Lecco provinces; its history, architecture, art and natural beauty, starting from the “capoluoghi” (main towns) of the province and the lake basin. It then goes on describing the mountain area and cultural features, uncovering the towns and ancient villages, alongside the mountain shelters and peaks. It gives detailed information on walking excursions for all nature lovers, from trekking to all types of sport. The section that describes the plains moves down towards the gentle Brianza hills, travelling through villas and castles and working valleys crossed by the River Adda, as well as parks full of treasures and wonderful views. -

The river changed course in July 2009. Until then the river flowed directly to the south from the outlet on the eastern side of the terminus and under the longest bridge in Iceland, the ~900 m long Skeiðará bridge. The river now flows to the west along the terminus and merges with the river Gígjukvísl near the centre of the glacier and the Skeiðará bridge is more or less on dry land. Photo: Oddur Sigurðsson.
