Abstract
I shall report only very briefly on the activities of the Committee on Dynamics of Streams. The work of this group has been identified of late primarily by the accomplishments of a few individuals on special studies of stream‐dynamics rather than by group accomplishment, which has been seriously handicapped by emergency conditions of the times. If I might use the vernacular, some members have at least temporarily gone completely out of circulation by the war—the chairman was out of the country a major part of the past year—but activity and group collaboration is now definitely coming back to the normal of previous years.Two subcommittees have been operating within the Committee on Dynamics of Streams; one on Terminology of Sedimentation under the chairmanship of E. W. Lane, and one on Land Forms under Irving B. Crosby. It is proposed to establish other project‐subcommittees to be concerned with specific problems related to the general field of the dynamics of streams. Such subgroups will not be continued indefinitely, but will rather be automatically dissolved when the specific study has been concluded.
