San Diego: Historical Overview
The San Diego campus of the University of California had its origins in the closing years of the nineteenth century, when zoologists at Berkeley, setting out to establish a marine station on the Pacific, selected a site at La Jolla.
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.

McEwen attended Iowa State College in Ames from 1885 to 1900, and from 1902 to 1905, supporting his studies with occasional work in watch repair. He withdrew after a serious bout of pneumonia. In 1905, McEwen and his mother moved to San Diego, California, hoping to improve their health. McEwen's mother moved with him to Palo Alto where he attended Stanford University from 1906-1908. He received an A.B. degree in 1908 and a doctorate in physics in 1911. McEwen had a teaching fellowship at Stanford while working on his doctorate and served as Instructor in Applied Mathematics at Stanford from 1910-1911. He was appointed Instructor in Mathematics at the University of Illinois in 1911. McEwen was recruited by William E. Ritter

http://web.mit.edu/mit-whoi/www/research/co/lead_emissions.html
Coral reconstruction of historical anthropogenic lead emissions Matthew Reuer, graduate student in Chemical Oceanography, now Hess Postdoctoral Fellow at Princeton University Human activities have greatly altered the natural geochemical cycles of several heavy metals, most notably lead derived from leaded gasoline and metal smelting emissions. Similar to the chlorofluorocarbons, radionuclides derived from atomic testing (tritium and radiocarbon), and carbon dioxide, the emission of anthropogenic lead represents an inadvertent, global-scale geochemical tracer experiment. One interest of the MIT Chemical Oceanography Group is to better understand anthropogenic lead in the world oceans, reflecting both the magnitude of anthropogenic emissions and its subsequent redistribution by the atmosphere and oceans. Luckily we have several useful tracers to address this problem, including seawater lead concentrations, stable lead isotopic ratios, and the unstable radionuclide lead-210. With seawater and proxy observations, we can better quantify the rates, sources, and transformation of this anthropogenic tracer. One recent application of this technique was the measurement of Pb/Ca and lead isotope ratios of the surface coral Diploria near the island of Bermuda. The annual bands of surface corals allow us to accurately date past variations in seawater lead concentrations and its isotopic composition (Figure 1). Such historical constraints are necessary for understanding how lead is distributed within North Atlantic water masses of different ages and placing current lead variability within a historical context.

Airborne eXpendable BathyThermograph (AXBT)
AXBT: Airborne eXpendable BathyThermograph is an air-deployed, expendable, ocean temperature profiling probe. The AXBT consits of: a temperature probe, 300-1000 meters of cable, a VHF transmitter and antenna, and a salt water activated battery. After the AXBT hits the surface and stabilizes, the transmitter is activated and the temperature probe is released. The surface transmitter telemeters the falling probes temperature to the data system on the aircraft. The International Ice Patrol uses AXBT's to locate ocean currents which is the major force that controls the drift of icebergs, also AXBT's provide an accurate sea surface temperature which is used for iceberg deterioration in the iceberg prediction computer model.

What are the seven seas?
There is no definitive answer to this question. The phrase is a figure of speech and has been used to refer to different bodies of water at various times and places. Some ancient civilizations used the phrase “seven seas” to describe the bodies of water known at that time. The ancient Romans called the lagoons separated from the open sea near Venice the septem maria or seven seas. Most current sources state that "seven seas" referred to the Indian Ocean, Black Sea, Caspian Sea, Adriatic Sea, Persian Gulf, Mediterranean Sea, and the Red Sea. Not all geographers agree on this list of seven, believing that the seven seas reference will be different depending upon the part of the world and the time period in question. Some geographers point to the Age of Discovery and suggest that the seven seas represent the Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic, and Indian Oceans, as well as the Mediterranean Sea, the Caribbean, and the Gulf of Mexico.

Oceanography and Marine Environment in the Basque Country
A. Borja, M. Collins
Elsevier Science March 2004
Hardback 640pp ISBN 044451581X Against a background of extensive multi-disciplinary oceanographic investigations over a number of years, together with the long-term establishment of a Society and Institute, extensive information is available from studies undertaken in the estuarine and coastal waters of the Basque Country. The present authors gained access to unpublished literature and reports which, together with a synthesis of internationally-refereed papers, provide a series of scientific overviews of particular subject areas. Teams of researchers (from Basque Institutes and Universities) combine to present the present 'state of knowledge', within a global context, of processes ranging from sub-seabed to air-sea interaction - incorporating data on the associated biology (including fisheries) and pollutant sources and levels. The latter are compared with regional, national and European legislation. The volume is divided into various sections: Introduction; Geography and Oceanography; Chemical Oceanography and Water Quality; Sediment Characteristics, Quality and Chemistry; Biomonitoring; Communities and Ecology; and Overall Assessment. The topics covered include: an historical review of marine research; the impact of human activities, during past centuries; geology, geomorphology and sediments; climate and meteorology; marine dynamics; hydrography; water mass characteristics; contaminants in the waters; microbiological quality; sedimentological characteristics; contaminants in sediments; biomonitoring of heavy metals and organic components, at tissue organism level and using cellular and molecular biomarkers; bacterioplankton and phytoplankton communities; zooplankton communities; benthic communities; seabirds; biodiversity and conservation; recovery of benthic communities; the polluted systems; and assessment of human impacts. On the basis of these syntheses, future challenges for marine research in the Basque Country are identified, in terms of a 'Research Agenda'.

Geophysics the physics of the Earth is a comparatively young science. Evolving into a distinct discipline only in the 19th Century, geophysics arose in the borderland between older, established sciences: physical geography, geology, astronomy, meteorology, and physics. Yet "geophysical" phonemena such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, floods, auroras, and lightning had been objects of curiosity and speculation since ancient times. In the 20th Century, the discoveries of cosmic rays, the core and mantle of the Earth, seafloor spreading, and El Nino illustrated the evolution and maturing of the geophysical sciences, which are now generally considered to include: solid earth geophysics, atmospheric and ocean sciences, hydrologic sciences, and space sciences. Like the science itself, the history of geophysics overlaps discipline boundaries. Internet resources in the history of geology, physics, astronomy, and oceanography all may contain material relevant to the history of geophysical ideas, experiments, and exploration, and the stories of geophysicists and their institutions. The online articles, bibliographies, and metasites (collections of web links) listed below are freely available on the Internet and all have at least some geophysics component. They range from educational sites written for the general public to lists of archival repositories and databases of interest to professional historians of science.
