Published reports and logbook accounts

The website is CUCC's primary method of publishing information about its Austrian expeditions. The paper journal "Cambridge Underground" was last published in 2012. The articles referenced below are classified according to the expedition which preceded the publication. Hardly any references deal with more than one year's expo. The reference numbers given below, such as "80.1739", are from "Current Titles in Speleology", where the article has made it there. Otherwise "no CTS" indicates that the article is either not referenced by Current Titles in Speleology or the reference has not been looked up:
