INTRODUCTION A. PROGRAM SUMMARY AND STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES This cruise is designed to support research sponsored by the NOAA Climate and Global Change Program under: i) The Ocean-Atmosphere Carbon Exchange Study (OACES), and ii) the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) repeat hydrography program. The OACES objective is to determine the source and sink regions of CO2 in the South Central Indian Ocean during the austral winter. A baseline study to determine total carbon inventory in this region will be performed thereby enabling the uptake rate of atmospheric CO2 to be determined during future cruises. The objective of the WOCE repeat hydrography component is to understand the general circulation of the global ocean well enough to be able to model it's present state and predict its evolution. B.

Dive Links F O R E W O R D The research diving program of Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego (SIO, UCSD) is the oldest of its type in the country. The first non-military class in the U.S. which taught the use of self-contained underwater breathing apparatus (scuba) was held by scientists for scientists on the Scripps campus during the summer of 1951. In 1952 two individuals died using university-owned scuba equipment. This led to the President's Office restricting diving to those who had been trained through the program at Scripps. A statewide committee was formed to address the problems of training, equipment standards, air purity, physical examinations, recordkeeping, and diver certification. The university decentralization of the early 1960's led to development, by the Scripps Diving Officer of programs on each of the other campuses. At the request of the President's Office, the Diving Officer also developed the first "University Guide for Diving Safety." This document, first published in March 1967, allows reciprocity between the various campuses, and is reviewed yearly by the campus Diving Safety Officers.

The academy represents approximately 3000 diving scientists nationwide, and promulgates national, peer-reviewed standards for the certification and operation of scientific diving programs. These standards apply to institutions with scientific diving programs that are in turn responsible for the training and certification of their research staff. The Smithsonian is also a NAUI Accredited Educational Institution and a corporate sponsor of the Divers Alert Network, DAN.

NAUI Specialty Diver Courses Policies Applying to Specialty Diver Courses OVERVIEW NAUI Specialty Diver Courses are either introductions to or are more detailed treatments of the respective areas of specialized diving. Accordingly, some specialty courses are designed to provide more detailed training and result in additional qualifications. In these instances the qualifications are described in the respective specialty course standard. They provide divers the opportunity to enjoy organized diving which yields experience and documents training in specialized diving activities. QUALIFICATION OF GRADUATES Graduates of a specialty course are considered competent to participate in the respective specialty activities without supervision, provided the activities engaged in and the areas dived approximate those in which the diver was trained. GENERAL PREREQUISITES Screening . In a pre-course session using selected skills, the instructor is to screen and evaluate all students to ensure that they possess the necessary diving skills to minimize risk. Also the instructor is to verify that the student has the prerequisite diver certification. Specialty courses with prerequisite certifications that are higher than Scuba Diver are listed in the respective course standard. Equipment . Students shall furnish and be responsible for the care and maintenance of their own diving equipment. The instructor shall initially assist the student in checking all student gear to ensure it is adequate and in proper working order.

UnderWater Magazine Article reprint: Summer 1999 "Diving Into the Great White North" By Madalyn Russell Presumably, as the fortunes of a nation’s economy go, so go the fortunes of its underwater industry. Canada has many exceptions to the rule. Its underwater-related businesses are broadly diverse, with the offshore oil and gas market being a staple user community. A recent opinion piece in the Montreal Gazette states that "the 1990s have not been kind to Canada. It’s been a time of slow economic growth, drastic cutbacks in public services, falling living standards and high unemployment rates. When compared to the red-hot economy and stock market south of the border, our performance looks even worse." The writer puts responsibility for economic problems at the feet of Canadian governments who "borrowed themselves into near-bankruptcy over the preceding 20 years." He blames "debts and taxes" and contends that the recession of the early part of this decade would have been far worse had it not been for the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the access it offered to the U.S. market. The good news is that in October 1998 Finance Minister Paul Martin announced that, for the fiscal year 1997-1998, for the first time in 28 years, the Government of Canada recorded a budget surplus ($3.5 billion). At that time, he predicted three consecutive years of balanced budgets and said that Canada was in a good position to withstand the turmoil of the international economy.

ENTER MDT WEBSITE MARINE DIVING TECHNOLOGIES MARINE DIVING TECHNOLOGIES Our world increasingly relies upon the resources and knowledge gained from the ocean and marine environment, our last frontier. This reality requires the Marine Diving Technologies Program to continue to provide the highest quality divers and marine technicians worldwide. The program is open to all interested students for both diving and non-diving classes. The program serves the needs of entry level students, employees in the workforce and students seeking personal enrichment. Students can attend part-time or full-time in both diving and non-diving marine related classes. Graduates can pursue multiple marine career paths in marine and underwater technology, working above and below the water with many types of sophisticated marine data collection instruments, diving and life-supporting equipment. Santa Barbara City College's Marine Diving Technologies Program is recognized worldwide for its vocational excellence. It is the only community college degree program in the nation which is accredited by the Association of Commercial Diving Educators (ACDE), the International Diving Schools Association (IDSA) and the National Association of Underwater Instructors (NAUI). The program trains and certifies for all levels of SCUBA diving. Santa Barbara City College pioneered formalized diver and technician education with the A.S. Degree curriculum in 1968. It was the recipient of the Exemplary Program Award in 1998 from the State of California Community Colleges chancellor's office.

April Open Water: The Movie Screened at the Sundance Film Festival, Open Water is a horror flick based on a true event that is every diver's worst nightmare: being left behind by the dive boat. This film, due to appear in theatres in June or July, could do to SCUBA diving what Jaws did to swimming. The movie's official website contains links to reviews and a chance to register to receive more information.

As Rolling Stone writes, "Take Open Water , the scariest thing to come out of Sundance since 1999's The Blair Witch Project . Two married scuba divers, played by Blanchard Ryan and Daniel Travis, are abandoned in the brine off the coast of the Bahamas.
