内容简介：
【简介】 The International Society of Biometeorology (ISB) was founded on August 29, 1956, at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris, France. The foundation was initiated by the geologist Dr S.W. Tromp (The Netherlands) and the meteorologist Dr H. Ungeheuer (Germany) and several human physiologists of which Dr F. Sargent II (USA) became the first President.
The motivation of the foundation of ISB was to bring together scientists working in the field of Biometeorology, who are interested in environmental and ecological problems. At that time the general interest in these issues was developing all over the world and the scientists in these fields were rather isolated.
The purpose of ISB today is to provide one international organization for the promotion of interdisciplinary collaboration of meteorologists, physicians, physicists, biologists, climatologists, ecologists and other scientists and to promote the development of Biometeorology. ISB is based on individual membership. Membership is open to all persons with academic training and degree.
