The Morton Rubin Papers contain a biography of Morton Rubin written by his brother Harry Rubin in 2004, as well as an appendix to that biography of a photocopy of Morton's diary from during the International Geophysical Year (1957-1958), and a copy of that appendix on compact disc. They also contain an audio recording and transcript of an oral history interview of Morton from a series of polar oral histories sponsored by the American Polar Society and Ohio State University's Byrd Polar Research Center Archival Program. In this oral history interview from July 21, 2000, Morton discusses his time in Antarctica as a meteorologist during the International Geophysical year, as well as his relations with Russian scientists also in Antarctica at the time.

The Gordon Cartwright Oral History, dated 1991 and 2000-2007, contains audio recordings, administrative information, and a transcript of the interview between Cartwright and Brian Shoemaker of the American Polar Society that took place on May 9, 2000, regarding Cartwright's experiences as a meteorologist in Antarctica and the Arctic. This interview was a part of a series of polar oral histories sponsored by American Polar Society and Ohio State University's Byrd Polar Research Center Archival Program, with funding from the National Science Foundation. Major topics found in the oral history include Cartwright's organization of a series of weather reporting stations along the Alaska-Canadian (ALCAN) Highway for reporting Arctic weather conditions, his development of the Joint Arctic Weather Reporting System (JAWS) with the Canadians, and his funding of the construction of the initial weather reporting bases at Resolute and Alert in Nunavut, Canada. The oral history also covers Cartwright's selection and experience as an exchange scientist with the Russians during the International Geophysical Year (IGY) from 1957-1958.
