Dramatic advances in understanding global tectonics have been made
in the last half century and the information and specific data
acquired on the floor of the World Ocean by the scientific
community probably has exc- ded that available in all previous
time. With the benefit of new technology and advanced concepts in
the earth sciences extensive exploration of the deep seabed became
possible, and has been carried out in many parts of the world. Many
features have been recognized and data recorded that are vital for
understanding the fundamental processes that shape the earth=s
surface and control the habitable environment. The data collected
to date on the o- an floor and its physical environment greatly
exceeds our understanding and appreciation of their fundamental
importance in the earth sciences, and our ability to apply this
knowledge effectively in improving our way of life. With his
extensive scientific knowledge and unique experience from - ny
cruises in association with scientists throughout the world, Dr.
Evgeny Gurvich has made an outstanding contribution in acquiring
basic data on hydrothermal and sedimentation processes in the
ocean, as well as in the synthesis of data and concepts available
from cruise reports and an extensive literature.
