该小组委员会成立于1941年11月。它首先选定了沉积物术语混乱和需要澄清的领域,并起草了初步定义,作为讨论的基础。这些定义随后尽可能广泛地分发给国内从事沉积物领域工作的人士,并征求他们的意见。他们的答复中有许多宝贵的建议。对每项定义的评论意见都进行了汇总,并根据这些意见修改了初步定义。在意见明显不同的情况下,小组委员会拟订了替代定义并进行了表决。小组委员会对通过的大多数项目的表决是一致的,或几乎没有表决,但对若干项目的意见分歧很大。
This Subcommittee was organized in November 1941. It first selected the areas in which the terminology of sediments was confused and needed clarification, and drew up preliminary definitions to serve as a basis of discussion. These definitions were then distributed as widely as possible among the persons in this country who are active in the sediment field, and their views were requested. Their replies contained many valuable suggestions. The comments on each definition were assembled and the preliminary definitions were modified in the light of these views. In cases where there were distinct differences of opinion, alternate definitions were prepared and voted upon by the Subcommittee. On the majority of items adopted, the vote of the Subcommittee was unanimous, or nearly no, but on several there was considerable difference of opinion.
