Extract

The tenth session of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Executive Committee was held in Geneva from April 29 to May 17, 1958. The Committee considered the recommendations arising from the second session of the Commission for Bibliography and Publications; the comments received on the draft International Meteorological Vocabulary were noted. The recommendations resulting from the second session of the Commission for Synoptic Meteorology, which dealt with international meteorological codes, were approved and incorporated in a single Executive Committee resolution. The Committee also considered the decisions taken at the second session of Regional Association V (South-West Pacific). The new president of this association announced that it was proposed to set up a tropical analysis center in Australia and this development was welcomed by the Committee.
