Climatological observations were made by the field party of the wintering party of JARE IV in survey trips en route, in 1960. The trips in which the surface observations were carried out are as follows (Names parenthesized are observers.): April 15-May 9: The first Shirase Glacier reconnaissance survey trip (Y. YOSHIDA), May 17-May 25: The Honnorbrygga Glacier survey trip (Y. YOSHIDA), Aug. 16-Aug. 23: The sea ice survey trip (Y. YOSHIDA), Sept. 12-Sept. 29: The reconnaissance traverse to inland (Y.
