The papers at the General Symposia of the Joint Oceanographic
Assembly were presented by authors who had been invited to deal
with topics of broad interdisciplinary interest. Together they gave
a valuable account of the present state of marine research, its
proQlems and potential. There seems merit in publishing them in one
volume and we are grateful to the authors who kindly agreed to
prepare their papers for publication. This has taken some time (and
not all authors found it possible) but we hope the resulting volume
is still indicative of trends in modern oceanography. Particularly
noticeable is the way in which the applied aspects are beginning to
play a more important part in spite of worries about the effects of
the Law of the Sea on our freedom to make observations. We are
especially grateful to the four authors who agreed to give lectures
summarising the work in their own field which was reported at the
Assembly. We also wish to thank the other authors, as well as all
concerned with the Assembly and with the production of this volume.
