Oceanographers are embracing a host of remote technologies that can facilitate the collection of data, but will continue to require capable, adaptable research vessels for access to the sea for the foreseeable future. Maintaining U.S. leadership in ocean research will require investing in larger and more capable general purpose Global and Regional class ships; involving the scientific community in all phases of ship design and acquisition; and improving coordination between agencies that operate research fleets."--Publisher's description. 606 $aResearch vessels$zUnited States 606 $aOceanographic research ships$zUnited States 606 $aOceanographic research ships$zUnited States$xDesign 606 $aOceanography$xResearch$zUnited States 615 0$aResearch vessels 615 0$aOceanographic research ships 615 0$aOceanographic research ships$xDesign. 615 0$aOceanography$xResearch 676 $a623.82 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Evolution of the National Oceanographic Research Fleet. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809046803321 996 $aScience at sea$93935580 997 $aUNINA
