History of Oceanography
OCEANOGRAPHY-Study of the OceansContributions of the ldquoancientsrdquo1 Phoenicians (from what is now Syria
and Lebanon) navigated and traded around Mediterranean Sea Indian
Ocean Red Sea and Africa 2000BC
2 Greeks-create Maps of Med Sea-450BC Eratosthenes (Mathematician) predicted the
circumference of the earth 42000 KM real distance is 40032 KM and
developed the system of longitude and latitude
3 Romans-studied and noted the phenomenon of erosion and researched
and documented the water cycle

bull In your notebook write down three things you remember about the ancient history of oceanography
Middle Ages
1 Fall of the Roman Empire -Europe lost most of its detailed understanding of geography
2 During this time Arabic nations continued to explore and expand trade routeshellip
3 The Vikings were ship-borne warriors and traders
of the north (Norsemen) who went on expeditions to
explore the Americas Iceland Greenland
Middle (Dark) Ages400s ndash 1400s in EuropeExtreme superstitionFear of intellectual inquiryMuch information lost
Map of Europe 600 AD
Vikings Age of Exploration 800-1066 AD
Discovered North America 500 years before Columbus
Leif Erickson
Viking Long Boat
Age of Exploration 1480-1610
Age of Discovery1 Columbus attempts to
reach East Indies by sailing west because Eastern routes were
blocked He crossed the Atlantic and ldquofoundrdquo the
Americashellip
2 Balboa settles the first European Colony in Panama
He crossed the Isthmus of Panama to the Pacific Ocean in
1513 He became the first European to lead an expedition
known to have seen or reached the Pacific from the
New World
Age of Discovery
3 Magellan was credited with being the first around the worldhellip though while on voyage he was killed
in the Philippines in 1521 However the 18 members left of his Crew finished
the voyage in 1522
The ldquoseardquo becomes a new place for empires to interact
It was the Era of trade with and plunder of the Aztecs and Incas for their gold and silver by the
Spanish The English and the Dutch
pirates attack the Spanish fleets

MORE discoverieshellip1 Captain James Cook- 1700rsquos
A British navigator who discovered the Hawaiian
Islands Is considered the best cartographer and reckless
navigator of his time Applied use of latitude and longitude
2 Ben Franklin charted maps of the gulf stream in 1777
3 Charles Darwin- 1800rsquos sailed to the Galapagos
Islands to study the Biology of the
Sea and in the process developed
his Theory of Natural Selection
4 Edward Forbes -1800rsquos predicted different types of
plant and animal life at different depths of the ocean
Introduced the idea of dredging
5 Challenger Expedition- Englandrsquos Royal Society obtained the use of HMS Challenger to
study sea floor characteristics chemical composition of sea water and life at all levels
6 Fridtjof Nansen- 1890rsquos Proved polar ice flowed Entered ice by Alaska exited by Greenland three years and over 1000 miles later Determined that the North Pole is landless

(NOAA)
1 German expedition- 1920rsquos ship named Meteor was used to map
depths in the Pacific Ocean
2 US National Ocean Survey- Bathymetric readings to determine how deep each ocean is Early techniques used pre-measured heavy rope or cable lowered over a ships side
3 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) establishes wise use of ocean resources minerals oil fish etchellip
20th Century Oceanography
Today data is generated from an echosounder (sonar) mounted beneath or over the side of a boat pinging a beam of sound downward at the seafloor
4 Oceanographic studies EXPAND Scripps Institution of
Oceanography develop FLIP (Floating Instrument Platform)
boat that turns vertically for research at different depths
20th Century Oceanography
When FLIP is in its vertical position it is both extremely stable and quiet
It is used to study the way water circulates how storm waves are formed how heat is
exchanged between the ocean and the atmosphere and the sound made by
underwater marine animals
5 Submersibles- ALVINCreated by Woods Hole
Oceanographic Institution and can carry up to 3 passengers to great depths (14764 ft) explore the ocean the organisms there
and record data
6 Jacques Cousteau- SCUBA Declared the importance of the oceans he was a champion of the life that existed there and
saw pollutionmdashand exploitation by man--as the destroyer of the
marine environment

bull In your notebook write down three things you remember about the ancient history of oceanography
Middle Ages
1 Fall of the Roman Empire -Europe lost most of its detailed understanding of geography
2 During this time Arabic nations continued to explore and expand trade routeshellip
3 The Vikings were ship-borne warriors and traders
of the north (Norsemen) who went on expeditions to
explore the Americas Iceland Greenland

Age of Discovery1 Columbus attempts to
reach East Indies by sailing west because Eastern routes were
blocked He crossed the Atlantic and ldquofoundrdquo the
Americashellip
2 Balboa settles the first European Colony in Panama
He crossed the Isthmus of Panama to the Pacific Ocean in
1513 He became the first European to lead an expedition
known to have seen or reached the Pacific from the
New World
Age of Discovery
3 Magellan was credited with being the first around the worldhellip though while on voyage he was killed
in the Philippines in 1521 However the 18 members left of his Crew finished
the voyage in 1522

bull In your notebook write down three things you remember about the ancient history of oceanography
Middle Ages
1 Fall of the Roman Empire -Europe lost most of its detailed understanding of geography
2 During this time Arabic nations continued to explore and expand trade routeshellip
3 The Vikings were ship-borne warriors and traders
of the north (Norsemen) who went on expeditions to
explore the Americas Iceland Greenland
Middle (Dark) Ages400s ndash 1400s in EuropeExtreme superstitionFear of intellectual inquiryMuch information lost
Map of Europe 600 AD

Leif Erickson
Viking Long Boat
Age of Exploration 1480-1610
Age of Discovery1 Columbus attempts to
reach East Indies by sailing west because Eastern routes were
blocked He crossed the Atlantic and ldquofoundrdquo the
Americashellip
2 Balboa settles the first European Colony in Panama
He crossed the Isthmus of Panama to the Pacific Ocean in
1513 He became the first European to lead an expedition
known to have seen or reached the Pacific from the
New World
Age of Discovery
3 Magellan was credited with being the first around the worldhellip though while on voyage he was killed
in the Philippines in 1521 However the 18 members left of his Crew finished
the voyage in 1522

OCEANOGRAPHY-Study of the OceansContributions of the ldquoancientsrdquo1 Phoenicians (from what is now Syria
and Lebanon) navigated and traded around Mediterranean Sea Indian
Ocean Red Sea and Africa 2000BC
2 Greeks-create Maps of Med Sea-450BC Eratosthenes (Mathematician) predicted the
circumference of the earth 42000 KM real distance is 40032 KM and
developed the system of longitude and latitude
3 Romans-studied and noted the phenomenon of erosion and researched
and documented the water cycle
Pharos Lighthouse at Alexandria
One of seven wonders of the ancient world
Recently found by marine archeologists

bull In your notebook write down three things you remember about the ancient history of oceanography
Middle Ages
1 Fall of the Roman Empire -Europe lost most of its detailed understanding of geography
2 During this time Arabic nations continued to explore and expand trade routeshellip
3 The Vikings were ship-borne warriors and traders
of the north (Norsemen) who went on expeditions to
explore the Americas Iceland Greenland
Middle (Dark) Ages400s ndash 1400s in EuropeExtreme superstitionFear of intellectual inquiryMuch information lost
Map of Europe 600 AD
Vikings Age of Exploration 800-1066 AD
Discovered North America 500 years before Columbus
Leif Erickson
Viking Long Boat
Age of Exploration 1480-1610
Age of Discovery1 Columbus attempts to
reach East Indies by sailing west because Eastern routes were
blocked He crossed the Atlantic and ldquofoundrdquo the
Americashellip
2 Balboa settles the first European Colony in Panama
He crossed the Isthmus of Panama to the Pacific Ocean in
1513 He became the first European to lead an expedition
known to have seen or reached the Pacific from the
New World
Age of Discovery
3 Magellan was credited with being the first around the worldhellip though while on voyage he was killed
in the Philippines in 1521 However the 18 members left of his Crew finished
the voyage in 1522

1 German expedition- 1920rsquos ship named Meteor was used to map
depths in the Pacific Ocean
2 US National Ocean Survey- Bathymetric readings to determine how deep each ocean is Early techniques used pre-measured heavy rope or cable lowered over a ships side
3 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) establishes wise use of ocean resources minerals oil fish etchellip
20th Century Oceanography
Today data is generated from an echosounder (sonar) mounted beneath or over the side of a boat pinging a beam of sound downward at the seafloor
4 Oceanographic studies EXPAND Scripps Institution of
Oceanography develop FLIP (Floating Instrument Platform)
boat that turns vertically for research at different depths
20th Century Oceanography
When FLIP is in its vertical position it is both extremely stable and quiet
It is used to study the way water circulates how storm waves are formed how heat is
exchanged between the ocean and the atmosphere and the sound made by
underwater marine animals
5 Submersibles- ALVINCreated by Woods Hole

bull In your notebook write down three things you remember about the ancient history of oceanography
Middle Ages
1 Fall of the Roman Empire -Europe lost most of its detailed understanding of geography
2 During this time Arabic nations continued to explore and expand trade routeshellip
3 The Vikings were ship-borne warriors and traders
of the north (Norsemen) who went on expeditions to
explore the Americas Iceland Greenland
Middle (Dark) Ages400s ndash 1400s in EuropeExtreme superstitionFear of intellectual inquiryMuch information lost
Map of Europe 600 AD
Vikings Age of Exploration 800-1066 AD
Discovered North America 500 years before Columbus
Leif Erickson
Viking Long Boat
Age of Exploration 1480-1610
Age of Discovery1 Columbus attempts to
reach East Indies by sailing west because Eastern routes were
blocked He crossed the Atlantic and ldquofoundrdquo the
Americashellip
2 Balboa settles the first European Colony in Panama
He crossed the Isthmus of Panama to the Pacific Ocean in
1513 He became the first European to lead an expedition
known to have seen or reached the Pacific from the
New World
Age of Discovery
3 Magellan was credited with being the first around the worldhellip though while on voyage he was killed
in the Philippines in 1521 However the 18 members left of his Crew finished
the voyage in 1522
The ldquoseardquo becomes a new place for empires to interact
It was the Era of trade with and plunder of the Aztecs and Incas for their gold and silver by the

Islands Is considered the best cartographer and reckless
navigator of his time Applied use of latitude and longitude
2 Ben Franklin charted maps of the gulf stream in 1777
3 Charles Darwin- 1800rsquos sailed to the Galapagos
Islands to study the Biology of the
Sea and in the process developed

Islands Is considered the best cartographer and reckless
navigator of his time Applied use of latitude and longitude
2 Ben Franklin charted maps of the gulf stream in 1777
3 Charles Darwin- 1800rsquos sailed to the Galapagos
Islands to study the Biology of the
Sea and in the process developed
his Theory of Natural Selection
4 Edward Forbes -1800rsquos predicted different types of
plant and animal life at different depths of the ocean
Introduced the idea of dredging
5 Challenger Expedition- Englandrsquos Royal Society obtained the use of HMS Challenger to
study sea floor characteristics chemical composition of sea water and life at all levels
6 Fridtjof Nansen- 1890rsquos Proved polar ice flowed Entered ice by Alaska exited by Greenland three years and over 1000 miles later Determined that the North Pole is landless

2 US National Ocean Survey- Bathymetric readings to determine how deep each ocean is Early techniques used pre-measured heavy rope or cable lowered over a ships side
3 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) establishes wise use of ocean resources minerals oil fish etchellip
20th Century Oceanography
Today data is generated from an echosounder (sonar) mounted beneath or over the side of a boat pinging a beam of sound downward at the seafloor
4 Oceanographic studies EXPAND Scripps Institution of
Oceanography develop FLIP (Floating Instrument Platform)
boat that turns vertically for research at different depths
20th Century Oceanography
When FLIP is in its vertical position it is both extremely stable and quiet
It is used to study the way water circulates how storm waves are formed how heat is
exchanged between the ocean and the atmosphere and the sound made by
underwater marine animals

1 German expedition- 1920rsquos ship named Meteor was used to map
depths in the Pacific Ocean
2 US National Ocean Survey- Bathymetric readings to determine how deep each ocean is Early techniques used pre-measured heavy rope or cable lowered over a ships side
3 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) establishes wise use of ocean resources minerals oil fish etchellip
20th Century Oceanography
Today data is generated from an echosounder (sonar) mounted beneath or over the side of a boat pinging a beam of sound downward at the seafloor
4 Oceanographic studies EXPAND Scripps Institution of
Oceanography develop FLIP (Floating Instrument Platform)
boat that turns vertically for research at different depths
20th Century Oceanography
When FLIP is in its vertical position it is both extremely stable and quiet
It is used to study the way water circulates how storm waves are formed how heat is
exchanged between the ocean and the atmosphere and the sound made by
underwater marine animals
5 Submersibles- ALVINCreated by Woods Hole
Oceanographic Institution and can carry up to 3 passengers to great depths (14764 ft) explore the ocean the organisms there
and record data
6 Jacques Cousteau- SCUBA Declared the importance of the oceans he was a champion of the life that existed there and
saw pollutionmdashand exploitation by man--as the destroyer of the
marine environment
