GÉODÉSIQUE ET GÉOPHYSIQUE INTERNATIONALE HISTORIQUE BACKGROUND L'Union Géodésique et Géophysique Internationale (UGGI) The International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG) est un organisme international non gouvernemental à but is an international, non-governmental, non-profit non lucratif fondé à Bruxelles le 28 juillet 1919. L'UGGI se organization established in Brussels on 28 July 1919. IUGG consacre à l'étude scientifique de la Terre et à l'utilisation is dedicated to the scientific study of the Earth and the au profit de la société des connaissances acquises grâce à application of knowledge gained by such studies to benefit cette étude. L'UGGI est l'une des trois Unions scientifiques society. IUGG was one of the first three Scientific Unions ayant participé en 1931 à l'Assemblée constitutive du established during the Constitutive Assembly of the Conseil international des recherches, devenu ensuite le International Research Council, the predecessor of the Conseil international des unions scientifiques (CIUS) en International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU) created in 1996, devenu enfin Conseil international pour la science 1931, known as the International Council for Science since (CIS) en 2018. Le CIS est un forum planétaire des 1996, and as the International Science Council (ISC) since scientifiques, qui leur permet d'échanger des idées et des 2018. ISC provides a global forum for scientists to exchange informations, promeut la science en tant que bien public ideas and information, advances science as a global public universel, et exprime l’expression universelle de la science. good, and presents a global voice of science.

LINSLEY AWARD Citation Vit Klemes I consider it a great honor to be chosen to present the Ray Linsley Award to my good friend, Vit Klemes. I don't remember when we first met, but it was long, long ago and far, far away, as the Trekkies say. And a Trekkie Vit is. His first acclaim was in his native Czechoslovakia, ending up working in the Hydrology and Hydraulics Institute of the Slovak Academy of Sciences in Bratislava. Bratislava is a beautiful city, known for its good wine, as Prague is for its good beer. However, Vit decided for some reason that he preferred Canada to Czechoslovakia, perhaps because of its balmy climate. Vit taught at the University of Toronto before joining Environment Canada, where he worked from 1972 until retirement in 1989. Vit is perhaps best known for his work on water resource systems, particularly reservoir planning. His common sense thinking about problems always questions the conventional wisdom. It is that questioning attitude thorough w~lich Vit has made many of his greatest contributions. In the American Geophysical Union the Hydrology Section has threatened to distribute Tee Shirts emblazoned "REPENT, DAVE DAWDY IS COMING" We won't repent because Vit is coming, but there are many who have repented because they followed the common path of thinking, and Vit has shown them wrong. I have always prided myself on being the curmudgeon of hydrology, so it is with much regret that I must bestow on Vit the title of CHIEF CURMUDGEON OF HYDROLOGY as well as the Ray Linsley Award.
