MISSION STATEMENT
The purpose of Solstice is to promote interaction
between geography and mathematics. Articles in which elements of one discipline
are used to
shed light on the other are particularly sought. Also welcome
are original contributions that are purely geographical or purely
mathematical. These may be prefaced (by editor or author) with
commentary suggesting directions that might lead toward the desired interactions.
Individuals wishing to submit articles or other material should contact
an editor, or send e-mail directly to sarhaus@umich.edu.
SOLSTICE ARCHIVES
Back issues of Solstice are available on the
WebSite of the Institute of Mathematical Geography, http://www.imagenet.org
and at various sites
that can be found by searching under "Solstice" on the World Wide Web.
Thanks to Bruce Long (Arizona State University, Department of Mathematics)
for taking an early initiative in archiving Solstice using GOPHER.
PUBLICATION INFORMATION
The electronic files are issued yearly as copyrighted
hardcopy in the Monograph Series of the Institute of Mathematical Geography.
This
material will appear in a Volume in that series, ISBN to be announced.
To cite the electronic copy, note the exact time
of transmission from Ann Arbor, and cite all the transmission matter as
facts of publication. Any copy that
does not superimpose precisely upon the original as transmitted from
Ann Arbor should be presumed to be an altered, bogus copy of Solstice.
