Reports dealing with search and rescue on land and sea are presented. The majority of the citations cover sea search and rescue, although much is applicable to land search and rescue. Studies are included on search and rescue planning, location equipment, rescue beacons, communication devices, specialized aircraft and their components, searching strategies, as well as other equipment and techniques. Underwater rescue and survival are excluded. (This updated bibliography contains 166 abstracts, 72 of which are new entries to the previous edition.)
