Edmund Gilbert Dymond FRSE RMS (1901-26 January 1953) was a Scottish physicist and meteorologist who served with James Mann Wordie on his Arctic explorations of 1937.
As a child he was studious by nature, but suffered from ill-health which interrupted his studies.
[1] In 1937 he was chosen by James Mann Wordie to act as official meteorologist on a trip of the Endurance to Baffin Bay and the Canadian Arctic.
Working with H. Carmichael he developed methods for measuring cosmic ray intensity at a height of 12 miles (19 km) above the surface of the planet.
During the Second World War he was posted to Kew Observatory to make studies of the outer atmosphere, and perfected the British Radiosonde.
