Engineering applications for the development of ocean and shoreline based technologies are reviewed. Attention was given to the use of instruments such as automatic profiling equipment, surf transducers, and acoustic measuring equipment for ocean phenomena. Various ocean-based resources were investigated, including thermal stratification, wave power, and minerals. Advancements in arctic based ships and ports were discussed, as were topics of navigation and safety, undersea engineering, and characteristics of new submersibles and underwater bases. Techniques for measuring the performance of current measuring devices were examined, along with marine weather systems, methods of oil spill clean-up, and underwater communications systems. Finally, power systems for ships were outlined, and environmental studies of the ocean and methods of applications of Seasat data were explored.
