	American Geophysical Union - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The AGU was established in 1919 by the National Research Council and for more than 50 years operated as an unincorporated affiliate of the National Academy of Sciences.
		In 1972 AGU was incorporated in the District of Columbia and membership was opened to scientists and students worldwide.
		AGU holds an annual meeting in San Francisco every December (known as the Fall meeting) and a joint assembly co-sponsored with other societies such as the Geochemical Society, the Mineralogical Society of America, the Canadian Geophysical Union, and the European Union of Geosciences every Spring (April through May) in various locations thorughout the world.

	Letter to the editor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The American Geophysical Union (AGU) has announced the availability of institutional online access to their journals as of January 2002.
		The prices that AGU demands for its journals will have a negative impact on the ability of most libraries to support the geoscience community, since most libraries will be required to pay for access at the same exorbitant rate as the Lab.
		AGU's justification for library/institutional pricing can be found in EOS Nov. 20, 2001 issue on page 575.

	Earth warming at faster pace, say top science group's leaders / Statement by American Geophysical Union's council warns ...
		In a phone interview, Christy said that while he supports the AGU declaration, and is convinced that human activities are the major cause of the global warming that has been measured, he is "still a strong critic of scientists who make catastrophic predictions of huge increases in global temperatures and tremendous rises in sea levels."
		The AGU has issued milder statements on global change in the past, with more emphasis on theories about natural changes than on evidence of human- caused rapid warming.
		But the AGU did suggest that continuing scientific research "provides a basis for mitigating the harmful effects of global climate change through decreased human influences." Among the AGU's suggestions: slowing greenhouse gas emissions, improving land management practices and removing carbon from the atmosphere.

		The journal Geophysical Research Letters selected Institute of Arctic Biology researcher Dr. Jeremy B. Jones' paper "Long-Term Decline in Carbon Dioxide Supersaturation in Rivers Across the Contiguous United States" as an American Geophysical Research Union Journal Highlight.
		For Jones and co-researchers Emily H. Stanley of the Center for Limnology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Patrick J. Mulholland of the Environmental Sciences Division, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tenn., their findings were a bit like discovering a radio station amidst the static.
		Moreover, the declines suggest that rates of soil respiration and groundwater flows from soils to streams across much of the contiguous U.S. changed in fundamental ways during the latter part of the 20th century.

	Copyright and Fair Use: The American Geophysical Union vs. Texaco Corporation
		This leaves American businesses with only two equally lamentable alternatives: They may comply fully in accordance with one of the CCC's plans, on the one hand, or they may risk civil and criminal prosecution for infringement and civil damages, on the other, if they choose to ignore the problem, as most now do.
		It can also be cogently argued that full compliance on the order of what CCC has required from Cyanamid, Squibb and Texaco could significantly harm the ability of American business to conduct essential research and development efforts which produce important technical innovations, new consumer products and maintain the high global competitive status of American industry.
		American corporations, large and small, on the other hand, must realize that access to information has to bear a reasonable price tag.
