Description
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The present authors gained access to unpublished literature and reports which, together with a synthesis of internationally-refereed papers, provide a series of scientific overviews of particular subject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.

Shipwrecks of North Wales Introduction - Why I wote this paper. These pages were originally written as a Project for my Degree course. The literature review topic I chose was Local Maritime History. I specifically chose shipwrecks as my focus. It was my Dad's idea originally and when we discussed it my Mum remembered this ship being wrecked near the Great Orme which her brother drove them all to see. After some research I discovered that the ship mum remembered was the Rethi Muller
The Rethi Muller
The Rethi Muller was a 1000ton German ship. On the morning of 5th November 1967 after being driven ashore in a storm she was moored up at Llandudno quarry pier. The quarry pier is 614ft. At 10am Captain Franz Huntz reported that despite mooring ropes the pier would not hold her steady against the storm. Not long after Captain Huntz report the 235ft vessel swung broadside to the sea. When one of the ropes snapped and ensnared the 68 year old bosun Hans Lucht. Hans broke a leg and had to be air lifted off by the RAF.

More than 200 scientists and experts from 110 organizations took part in this Congress. The following countries were presented: the Russian Federation, Belgium, Bulgaria, Great Britain, Germany, Denmark, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Spain, Canada, Lithuania, Nigeria, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, The United States of America, Ukraine, France, Croatia, Sweden and Estonia. Many famous students of local lore, polar scientists and captains, descendants of legendary geographers and oceanographers were invited to participate in the Congress. The main topic of the VII International Congress on the History of Oceanography was “International Collaboration in the Research of the World Ocean”. The plenary session included presentations, devoted to great historical events and results of researching the World Ocean and also to the problems and achievements of international collaboration in investigation and conservation of marine biological resources. Sessions on the Congress were devoted to the following areas:
  • Development of oceanography.
