<p>In 1989 the first bases of what is now a strong and consolidated Spanish-Italian scientific relationship in Seismology and in Volcano-Seismology were established. The first stage took place at the University of Catania, in the former Department of Earth Sciences, placed in the old Science Faculty, when a pre-doctoral student from the University of Granada, Cartuja Observatory (now called Andalusian Institute of Geophysics), arrived to complete his formation in seismology. During this stage, in addition to the training process, new contacts with researchers and mainly with pre-doctoral students of the former International Institute of Volcanology of the Italian National Research Council (IIV-CNR) were stablished. These contacts have endured, grown and created a strong international scientific network with consolidated and credible research production. In a short time new working groups were integrated such as the Osservatorio Vesuviano in Naples or the Department of Physics of the University of Salerno from the Italian side, and the Department of Applied Physics of the University of Almería or the Volcanology Department of the Spanish Research Council (CSIC) in Spain. At the present this non-official (but very active) network comprises many Italian Research Centers belonging to the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV) such as Catania, Naples, Rome, Palermo, Pisa or Bologna; Italian Universities as Salerno, Naples, L’Aquila or Calabrian, several Spanish Universities such as Granada, Almería, Jaen, Complutense, Cádiz or La Laguna, but also from other countries such as USA, Russia, Ireland, Portugal, México, Argentina, Germany, France, Norway or UK among others. This collaboration includes a continuous pre-doctoral students training protocols in which the exchange of fellows among the different institutions is fluent. [...]</p>

AbstractThe USA delegation to the July 1919 International Research Council meeting in Brussels included Joel Stebbins, then professor of astronomy and observatory director at the University of Illinois, as secretary of the executive committee appointed by the National Research Council. Stebbins, an avid photographer, documented the travels of their party as the American astronomers attended the meeting and later toured devastated towns, scarred countryside, and battlefields only recently abandoned. Published reports of the meeting afterward attest to the impression left on the American visitors, and the photographs by Stebbins give us a glimpse through their own eyes. Selected photographs, recently discovered in the University of Wisconsin Archives and never before publicly seen, will be presented along with some commentary on their significance for the International Astronomical Union, which took shape at that 1919 meeting.

During the summer of 1935, the University of Pennsylvania Museum sponsored an archaeological and geological survey of the middle and lower Yukon valley, Alaska. The work was financed through the generosity of the National Research Council and the American Philosophical Society. The party consisted of: Dr. A. J. Eardley, Department of Geology, University of Michigan; Mr. Kenneth Gorton, a student of geology at the same institution; Mr. Norman Reynolds, a student of anthropology at the University of Washington; and the writer.The principal object of the expedition was to investigate the possibilities of finding ancient human remains in the Yukon valley. The discoveries of ancient artifacts (belonging to the so-called Folsom culture) in association with bones of extinct animals, show that human beings lived on the southern High Plains east of the Rockies at the end of the Pleistocene or during the early post-Pleistocene.
