1. A Brief History Of Marine Biology And Oceanography
   Historical overview of marine sciences from the bronze age to the 20th century, with images and a timeline.  
   http://www.meer.org/mbhist.htm
   
   Extractions: modified from Singer, 1921 About this time, however, observations of natural phenomena related to the seas and oceans began to be written down. Herodotus, around 450 BC, wrote of the regular tides in the Persian Gulf, the deposition of silt in the Nile Delta, and uses the term "Atlantic" for the first time to describe the western seas. In the fourth century, the Phocaean colonists of Massila (Marseilles), sent the Greek astronomer Pytheas on a voyage out of the Pillars of Hercules (Gibraltar), where he traveled to Britain, Germany, and the Baltic Sea. He describes conditions in a distant far northern sea, which may have been in the Arctic (he describes it as having a 24 hour day at the summer solstice), as thick and gelatinous like a jellyfish (these waters are at times thick with gelatinous organisms of various kinds).

   Extractions: Oceanography Data of Gulf of Mexico Reanalysis and Synthesis of Physical Oceanography Historical Data , the study focuses on waters deeper than 200 meters across the northern Gulf, and from the surface to the seafloor. The area is of interest to the MMS because of increased exploration for oil and gas along the continental slope and rise of the Gulf. This study lays the groundwork for further research into the movement of water at all depths. An understanding of the movement of water, such as tides and currents, is integral to the understanding of the marine environment and the focus of physical oceanographic studies. This data synthesis includes much of what has been learned about water circulation in the Gulf of Mexico over the past fifty years and identifies what is still not understood. All available data from governmental agencies, academic institutions, private organizations, and Mexican institutions were collected and compiled into a single database, which is available on three CD’s as part of the report. The data were analyzed and the principal physical processes at work in deepwater were identified and prioritized according to the need for additional data. The contractors identified criteria and constraints for designing future studies both in the field and in computer modeling.

   Extractions: Oceanography has always been dependent on technology. Advances in our understanding of the oceans often result from new ways to get at or measure the ocean: better ships, better submersibles, better instruments (including satellites). Oceanography has historically been driven by either economic needs or military needs. The first peoples of the world took to the ocean to find food or jewelry or other material resources. The oceans have seen many a battle, from European conquests of Latin America to the World Wars. Even today, aircraft carriers and submarines are vitally important to protecting national interests. Oceanography is largely funded by governments; few commercial applications of oceanography exist. While fisheries and aquaculture show promise as commercial ventures, it is still the world's governments who fund ocean science. Oceanography requires cooperation among many people with vastly different interests and skills. Besides the obvious divisions between ship's crew and ship's scientists (which may or may not get along), the oceanographers themselves depend on each other for conducting experiments and making observations. As we have already seen, oceanography is a multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, why-can't-we-all-get-along kind of science. Historical Oceanography Middens Historical Oceanography

There's also the usual list of FTP/Gopher/WWW servers at various oceanographic institutions. Forthcoming will be an expanded (i.e. enlarged and annotated) version of the reference list(s), a more thorough review and discussion of the graphics resources (perhaps with the odd example), hopefully many more educational documents, a searchable data set collection, and much, much more on the subject of ocean circulation modeling. There'll also be an eternally growing glossary of oceanography terms as part of a larger climate/paleoclimate glossary. If you're using a graphical browser then you'll notice quite a few images of sailing vessels scattered throughout these pages. These were liberated from, amongst other places, the Age of Sail Page that contains all sorts of information about sailing past and present. More drawings and pictures of

The Scripps Institution Land and a building were given the Scripps Institution of Marine Biology by Mr. E. W. Scripps and Miss E. B. Scripps in 1909. In 1912, about a quarter section of land and improvements were deeded to the Regents of the University. By 1925, the scope of the activity had broadened and the name was changed to the Scripps Institute of Oceanography.
