Herb., Washington.  COOPER published the following papers concerning his investigations: The recent ecological history of Glacier Bay, Alaska (Ecology 4, 1923); The battle of ice and forest (Amer. Forest and Forest life 30, 1924); A third expedition to Glacier Bay, Alaska (Ecology 12, 1931); The seed-plants and ferns of the Glacier Bay National Monument. Alaska (Bull. Torr.
