ETUDES PERIGLACIAIRES MONDIALES EN 1964
ABSTRACT Since the establishment of the Commission on Periglacial Geomorphology in 1949 and of the Biuletyn Peryglacjalny (Lodz, Poland) five years later, periglacial research has made considerable progress in many countries. Unfortunately, nobody has the data needed to prepare a complete statement...

Unfortunately, nobody has the data needed to prepare a complete statement of all that has occurred in the fields of teaching, individual research, joint undertakings, and the general organization of periglaciology. However, the present note summarizes various preceding reports which were similarly intended to spread the knowledge of activities in periglaciology. In 1964, the International Commission of Periglacial Morphology held several meetings in Hungary, Austria, and Great Britain. Both thematic and regional periglacial morphology were discussed. In Hungary‐Austria, the topics studied dealt with loess accumulation, gelivation valleys, thermokarst, injection‐ice deposits, frost wedges (ice or sand), cryoturbation solifluction sheets, and lobes. In Great Britain, two symposiums brought the participants in the field to study tors, heads, steps, vegetation patterns, earth hummocks, and Quaternary chronology. During the meetings in London, more than fifty papers were presented, and many kinds of periglacial phenomena from several countries were discussed. Poland has published number 14 of the Biuletyn Peryglacjalny that contains nine national periglacial reports; one comes from Canada (Frank A. Cook's text). Two other papers deal with general periglacial terminology. The next meeting of the commission will be in the United States during 1965.
