This volume contains the record of hearings before the Special Subcommittee on Oceanography of the Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries, House of Representatives, during the Eighty-sixth Congress, First and Second Sessions (1959). Focusing on 'Oceanography in the United States,' the hearings explore various aspects of marine research, oceanic resources, and the role of the U.S. government in promoting and regulating oceanographic activities. Testimonies and discussions cover topics ranging from fisheries management and marine navigation to the exploration of the ocean floor and the potential for resource extraction. The document provides valuable insights into the state of oceanography in the late 1950s and the legislative considerations surrounding ocean exploration and conservation. This historical record is an essential resource for researchers and policymakers interested in the history of oceanographic policy and the development of marine science in the United States.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
