NOTES ON THIS FILE:
If you download this file, it will be obvious that this is a simple scan and stitch pdf file. Having checked out the original document from the UCLA library, I found it quite straightforward and useful, and I wanted to have a copy for myself. Instead of just making photocopies, I used the scanning option on our department copier to make pdfs of each page, and sent them to myself. I then used Adobe Acrobat to put the scans in order. I tried to convert the text to an editable format using OCR, but it would only work for a few pages, so I abandoned that idea. I also did not try to clean up the scans, straighten pages, or crop white space. So, while I think the quality of the scans is quite good, and the text very legible, it is not a definitive digital version of this document. As far as I'm concerned, you are welcome to copy and distribute this version as you see fit, with no need to mention me or this URL. However, be aware that I do not hold the copyright for the text, so you don't have permission to reproduce the text or figures, and the intellectual property contained within the document belongs to the authors and/or the WMO and/or the ICSU.
