Manned Undersea Science and Technology, Fiscal Years 1977 and 1978 Report

摘要

This report of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Manned Undersea Science and Technology (MUS&T) Program presents a general review of the Program's development and management, a summary of significant accomplishments, and a detailed description of new and ongoing activities in the period October 1976 through September 1978 (Fiscal Years 1977 and 1978). A bibliography documenting reports on MUS&T-supported activities not cited in the FY 1976 report is also provided. The purpose of the MUS&T Program is primarily to foster those manned underwater scientific investigations that meet the needs and requirements of NOAA and to encourage studies and activities that increase the safety, usefulness, and versatility of manned undersea operations. The program also conducts cooperative undersea programs with other Federal agencies and provides liaison, advice, and support to Federal, State, academic, and institutional bodies performing manned undersea work.
