Leopold, Luna Bergere, 1915-
Luna Bergere Leopold papers, circa 1909-2006 (bulk 1931-2006).
This collection comprises Luna Bergere Leopold's extensive incoming correspondence and other papers mostly during his active retirement years (1986-2006), with some earlier papers. The collection also contains his profusely illustrated personal journal in 12 volumes (1931-2003) that include world travels; some 70 field notebooks (1937-2006) embracing localities in the Western and Northeastern United States, in Hawaii, and some foreign locations (chiefly in India and Israel); more than a hundred original plane table maps from locales in the United States; a significant set of correspondence and papers (1956-1986) from hydrologist and sedimentologist Ralph Alger Bagnold (1896-1990), who in his own right was a pioneer in modern sedimentology and hydrology; and publications and manuscripts over the course of Leopold's multidisciplined career.
Worked in the fields of hydrology and fluvial geomorphology with urban planners and those who would restructure the flow of rivers and streams; established first practical, major field methods by which the geometry of streams and the waterflow in them are measured and how these data are analyzed; work is based on work as a meteorologist, hydrologist, geomorphologist, professor, and conservationist.
