Resolution on the publication of calorimetric and thermodynamic data

In 1953 the 8th Calorimetry Conference adopted a resolution outlining minimum publication standards for the guidance of authors, editors, and referees of calorimetric papers. Because this resolution has helped improve the quality of such papers, the 14th Conference (1959) authorized the preparation of a revised resolution on publication that would be more consistent with the expanded scope of the Conference and the present state of calorimetric science. The revised and expanded resolution that follows was adopted by the 15th Conference at Gatlinburg, Tennessee, September 7–10, 1960.
