Abstract
Helmut E. Landsberg would have been 80 years old on 9 February 1986, and to honor him on that occasion, the Department of Meteorology of the University of Maryland College Park had planned a scientific colloquium on climate to commemorate and highlight his achievements. Unfortunately, Professor Landsberg died on 6 December 1985 while participating in a meeting of the World Meteorological Organization Commission for Climatology in Geneva, Switzerland. The planned symposium was consequently rescheduled as a memorial symposium, and the contents of this volume contain the scientific presentations of that event.
