Institute of Physics, Environmental Physics Group newsletter (18), Summer 1998

This file contains the newsletters of the Environmental Physics Group at the Institute of Physics. The fundamental aim of the Group is to promote physics within the context of the environmental sciences. In achieving this aim we provide a forum for the discussion of physics as it applies to the environment and encourage the development and application of physical methods to environmental research. The Group also encourages the education and training of physicists in the environmental sciences through meetings and contacts with educationalists at all levels. Because of the broad nature of environmental physics the Group is involved in co-operative meetings with other professional organisations with interests in the environment. These newsletters are an archive of our activities since the formation of the Group.
