In June 1993, over 170 scientists attended the Sixth International Controlled Atmosphere Research Conference at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. The conference showcased the latest research on controlled atmospheres and provided valuable information for those involved with the production, storage, or shipment of vegetables, fruit, and flowers. The proceedings is divided into two volumes and includes 96 papers from the 15 sessions that cover all aspects of controlled atmosphere storage, transport, packaging, and engineering. The conference program was organized by Cornell University professors G. D. Blanpied and James R. Hicks, Department of Fruit and Vegetable Science, and James A. Bartsch, Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering. The authors include agronomists, agricultural engineers, extension specialists, horticulturists, industry representatives, plant pathologists, physiologists, and pomologists.
