If you run across crew lists, please post the link to the pages here
- like we did for the instrumentation pages. There seem to be 2
types of pages - lists of sailors joining the ship, and then one for
those who died or left the ship. It isn't necessary to transcribe
the names, but if you are feel like, please go right ahead. At
some point, the names from these lists will be added to the SODA
database.
Thanks,
Kathy

GRAVITY AND ISOSTASY
DETERMINATION OB TEE INTENSITY OF GRAVITY IN THE UNITED STATES AND ALASKA
For
some time it has been felt that the activities of the Survey in the
determination of the intensity of gravity should be devoted to the
testing or solution of specific geological or geophysical problems
rather than to continue the general distribution of stations in
unoccupied areas. With this in view, parties of the Coast and Geodetic
Survey in charge of F. E. Joekel and E. J. Brown in 1922 and 1923
established 27 stations at the request of the officials of the U. S.
Geological Survey for the purpose of showing whether the pendulum was
capable of disclosing differences in densities of earth material close
to the surface.
