NOAA Climate Database Modernization Program (CDMP) Imaging Support Task, October 2003—Title: WMO Pub. No. 47 (1955-72) Series reference information: WMO (World Meteorological Organization), 1955-: International List of Selected, Supplementary and Auxiliary Ships. WMO No. 47, Geneva, Switzerland. (Serial publication; recently annual. Editions prior to 1966 were titled International List of Selected and Supplementary Ships.) Task background: Prior to the 1973 edition, WMO publication No. 47 (1955-) was published and previously available only in paper form. This project imaged all the editions and supplements that could be located at WMO and from other international sources (Table 1). Reproduced by permission of the World Meteorological Organization. We gratefully acknowledge the assistance of the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) and the UK Met Office in providing photocopies of two editions. Table 1: Editions and supplements of WMO No. 47 imaged for this task. Only one original supplement was located (1964s); it is not known whether any additional supplements were issued. The individual document contained in this file is shaded in the table.
