In 1947 72 research workers—49 Swiss, 14 British, 8 French and 1 Swedish—visited the Jungfraujoch Research Station (Hochalpine Forschungsstation Jungfraujoch). Of this number no less than 23 were occupied with glaciological research. Dr. M. Oechslin, writing in Die Alpen (Vol. 24, No. 7, 1948, Part II, p. 118) welcomes this fact on behalf of the Swiss Alpine Club which has always fostered glacier and snow research.
