Contents: Oceanographic factors in harbor development in South Viet Nam; statistical studies of the ocean environment relating to prediction; depth and strength of the seasonal thermocline in shallow water off southern California; short-period changes and anomalies of temperature in the oceans and their effects on sound propagation; acoustic effects of internal waves in the ocean; semi-permanent features of the circulation in the Western North Atlantic; safety certification of deep research vehicles; NEMO-Naval Edreobenthic Manned Observatory; composite modules: a new design for deep ocean buoyancy applications; protective coatings in shallow and deep ocean environments; an automatic oceanographic data collection system for use in an arctic environment; engineering field test results of an expendable sound speed profiling device; sediment sound speed measurements using a pulse technique; the effects of explosive loading on the strength of sands; performance of a newly developed shipboard wave height sensor for use in obtaining wave measurements in the deep ocean; ambient thermal noise in the sea, instrument and observational errors, and the bias of temperature measurements; summary of computer-analyzed temperature data for pacific and Atlantic oceans; shallow water sound transmission paths from the USNEL Oceanographic Research Tower off Mission Beach; U. S. Naval Academy oceanography curriculum and some preliminary scientific/technical results; and sound velocity profiles in an area south of Bermuda. See also Volume 1, AD376894.
