Research abstracts were obtained by contacting principal investigators and program managers with Alaskan, out-of-state, and foreign organizations. In addition, questionnaires were sent to investigators listed with the Smithsonian Science Information Exchange and the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center's OASIS/ENDEX system. All responses received by February 15, 1978 are included. Late responses will be listed in the next edition. Several changes in format and content make this edition the most comprehensive of the series yet to be published. The data have been entered on an IBM 32 Word Processor, which has enabled the compilation and inclusion of four indexes: an investigator index, an affiliation index, a funding source index, and a general key word index. This year's profile gives a broader emphasis to some of the social sciences, particularly those directly related to resource development, such as archaeology, land use planning, and socio-cultural studies. Foreign and privately sponsored research conducted in the state also received more attention this year. The fifth edition includes nearly 1,550 research projects which were completed, continued, or initiated during 1977 by 1,500 principal and co-investigators. The largest number of studies, 29 percent, was performed by personnel of the federal government. Of these, 16 percent were from federal offices within the state,, and 13 percent were from agencies outside the state. Following the federal government, the University of Alaska registered the greatest number of programs, with 27 percent of the investigators being affiliated with one of the university's 14 research units or departments. Personnel from state agencies accounted for 21 percent of the investigators, followed by outside universities, 11 percent, consulting firms and private industry, 11 percent, local government ...
