Advanced Marine Technology

Abstract

The report is a progress report for the period 1 August 1971 - 31 January 1972 on the following projects in advanced marine technology: submerged navigation and submersible instrumentation (development of precise navigation for a small submersible), handling and transfer at sea (use of energy absorbers in small boat and buoy handling alongside in rough weather), bottom reconnaissance and detailed site survey (use of submersible in geological mapping), near bottom magnetic studies using a deep submersible, near bottom gravity studies from a deep submersible, a self-contained deep sea rock drill, and development of equipment for use in deep ocean biological research (observation and collection under pressure of benthic biology).
