Teachers' Corner August 23, 1958 Office of Naval Research Bathyscaph Arrives In San Diego for West Coast Oceanographic Diving The Bathyscaph Trieste has arrived in San Diego, California after a voyage from Castellamare, Italy via Norfolk, Virginia, for use in research of the ocean depths off the Southern California coast. The 70-ton diving craft, recently purchased by the Office of Naval Research from renowned Swiss scientists Auguste and Jacques Piccard, has been made available to west coast oceanographers to conduct basic scientific research involving acoustical and biological investigations of Pacific waters in the San Diego area. Long-range objectives of this program are to explore the ocean environment at great depths, and to evaluate the bathyscaph's potentialities both as a research tool and as a deep-diving submarine rescue vessel. Types of research to be conducted will be planned jointly by the Office of Naval Research and the Navy Electronics Laboratory, who will operate the bathyscaph. The first dives are expected to be made in late fall.

Extractions: The Caribbean Marine Research Center Background The National Marine Research Center for the Caribbean region is located at the Caribbean Marine Research Center (CMRC) in Palm Beach, FL and is one of six regional centers of the National Undersea Research Program (NURP). The Center also provides research support facilities at Lee Stocking Island in the Exuma Cays, Bahamas. CMRC was created in 1984 by the Perry Institute for Marine Science, Inc. and in 1987 was designated as a National Undersea Research Center under the auspices of the NOAA National Undersea Research Program. Its mission is to actively support the urgent need for research and education in tropical and subtropical marine environments, particularly research aimed at understanding the ultimate management of important marine species and ecosystems in the region and promoting the reversal of the ongoing depletion of marine resources and uncontrolled degradation of the oceans. Facilities and Equipment Research programs supported by CMRC typically utilize sophisticated undersea technology, including manned submersibles, remotely operated vehicles, and both air and Nitrox scuba diving. Lee Stocking Island offers 28 buildings (laboratories, aquaculture hatchery and production facility, housing, workshops, power stations, dining hall, reverse osmosis water plant, dive locker and boat yard), an airstrip, large dock, eight boats and diving support facilities, including a decompression chamber and the submersibles Delta and Clelia.

Extractions: Investigating the ocean for scientific purposes did not begin until about 250 years ago, with the most intensive study occurring only during the last 130 years. The voyages of individuals such as Captain James Cook and Charles Darwin included some of the first dedicated ocean measurements and observations as part of larger expeditions. The Challenger Expedition (1872-5) was the first fully scientific oceanographic expedition, marking the arrival of oceanography as a science. After this expedition, exploration and map-making would no longer take the primary role in ocean science. Instead, a new science called oceanography was born, encompassing physical, chemical, geological and biological studies.

Extractions: Funds from federal agencies and from the state of Washington provide research support. Major sources of support during 1987-88 were the National Science Foundation (62%), the Office of Naval Research (22%), the State of Washington (4%), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (3%), the Department of Energy (2%), and other federal agencies such as NASA and EPA (5%). The remaining support was derived from various state and local governmental agencies and from private organizations. There is potential for confusion between biological oceanography and other branches of science that use marine organisms as models for studies. Some lines of inquiry are distinguished easily from oceanography, such as medical research use of hemoglobins or toxins manufactured by marine organisms because of their relative simplicity, neurophysiological use of squids and tubeworms for their usually large and manipulable nerve cells, and embryological use of sea urchin eggs as easily obtainable models of animal development. Marine biology, which is often a focus of study at the undergraduate level, and a common baccalaureate degree for students entering biological oceanography graduate programs, is rarely a field for more specialized graduate study in oceanography. The title of marine biologist has given way to more specific labels such as toxicologist, developmental biologist, or neurophysiologist.

Born on December 4, 1909, Bridgeport, Washington, he died peacefully in his sleep at home Sunday, December 1, 2002, a few days shy of his 93rd birthday. His wife of 67 years, Katherine Gehring LaFond, his constant companion and scientific partner, and two sons, William and Robert, survive him. Though he traveled worldwide, Gene always considered San Diego his home. His family moved here in 1921, and he graduated from Sweetwater High School(1928) and San Diego State College (1932). He was awarded an honorary D.Sc from Andhra University, India in 1956. In the course of his remarkable career, Gene worked at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, contributed to the content of "The Oceans: Their Physics, Chemistry, and General Biology," the first modern textbook in oceanography, was a pioneer SCUBA diver, dove off California in the bathyscaphe Trieste and other deep-sea research submersibles, conducted experiments under Arctic ice in U.S. Navy submarines near the North Pole, led construction of an oceanographic tower off Mission Beach, lead segments of the two-year Scripps Naga Expedition to Thailand and Vietnam in 1960-62, participated in the Bikini Atoll atomic bomb tests, and under a Fulbright Grant, worked in India with its scientists to establish the first oceanographic institute in that nation.

The program supports the research of visiting Smithsonian scientists and their colleagues, postdoctoral fellows, a resident scientist/director, and the operations of the station including a small support staff (see Staff Directory Indian River Lagoon Species Inventory Project ) and in 1998 by the Link Foundation to support graduate fellowships ( Link Foundation Fellowships In April, 1995 the Smithsonian entered into an agreement with the MacArthur Foundation for the purchase of 8 acres of property near the Fort Pierce Inlet with access easement to the Indian River Lagoon for the purpose of relocating its facilities and program of research to a land-based laboratory. In April, 1996 the purchase was completed and plans begun for construction at the new site (see Site Plan Groundbreaking for the research laboratory building of Phase I of the Site Plan ( Phase I Laboratory ) took place on March 11, 1998. At the groundbreaking ceremony, the Director of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History, Robert Fri, announced an official name change for the Station, reflecting its plans for relocation and future commitment, from the former name "Smithsonian Marine Station at Link Port" to the current name "Smithsonian Marine Station at Fort Pierce.

Submersibles are a great scientific tool to help researchers explore the ocean depths. They are small submarines that can maneuver underwater easier than larger submarines. Submersibles are equiped with viewports (windows), searchlights, mechanical arms, cameras and scientific instruments that enable seeing and recording data from underwater vehicles. Perhaps ONR's most famous submersible is ALVIN , a three-person deep submergence vessel (DSV). Among some of its most memorable missions are discovery of deep-sea
