The Microbiology of the Upper Air. II [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1934 The collection of micro-organisms from the air at various altitudes has interested observers for a considerable time. Pasteur, one of the first workers in this field, made investigations by climbing the Alps to obtain his samples. More recently the airplane has made it possible for others to make studies on the micro-organisms found in the upper air ...
