Introductory Presentation by Dr. Michael J. Passow

PowerPoint | HTML

Seawater covers three-quarters of our planet's surface, yet we have been able to develop methods to know not only what lies beneath the oceans, but also the sediments and rocks of the crust. Most of these discoveries have been made by the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) and its predecessor, the Deep Sea Drilling Project. In today's introductory slide show, you can lead more about the history of underwater exploration, useful background knowledge for the presentation by our guest scientist, Dr. Gerardo Iturrino.
