Immediate source of acquisition or transfer
This sub-collection of reprints and research papers belonging to Lamb was transferred to the Library Archives in 2015 from the CRU Library. The collection contains charts, graphs, slides, photographic negatives, printed articles, reprints, notes, press-cuttings. Contained in boxes, box-files and folders.

Primarily relates to historical long-range weather forecasting over centuries; meteorological research, global weather phenomena, and global weather forecasting. Some institutional publications and conference material.

No sorting or re-arrangement of this collection has taken place. The contents reflects the labels on the boxes or folders as kept by Lamb.
