History of Oceanography Early Age of Discovery Science and the Oceans Modern Oceanography Different motivations at different times

Early history Reasons: trade, fishing, defense Self centered view of Earth Examples

Early history (2) Difficult to navigate without shorelines Phoenicians (approx. 1000 BC) Polynesians (300-600 AD most important)

Early history (3) Greeks (approx. 500 BC) Erasthosthenes (working in Egypt) – circumference of earth Pliny the Elder – phases of moon and tides Ptolemy (approx. 150 AD) – vast ocean, used lat and long Middle Ages: very little exploration except Vikings (approx. 1000 AD) Arabs

Age of Discovery (1) Travel for economic, political and religious reasons Portugal: Prince Henry Dias (1497) Vasco Da Gama (1498)

Age of Discovery (2) Spain Columbus (1492) Vespucci (~1500) Balboa (1513) Magellan (1522)

Age of Discovery (3) Discovery with some science James Cook (1768-1780) Endeavour, Resolution, Adventure Ben Franklin (1769) Matthew F. Maury (early 1800s)

Purely scientific Challenger Expedition (1872-1876) Extremely significant

More for science Voyages of Nansen aboard Fram (end of 1800s) Meteor expedition (1925-27)

Modern Oceanography (20th century) International Interdisciplinary Scientific Complex instruments “Modern” technology

Modern Oceanography US funding – NSF, ONR, NOAA Oceanographic institutes Drill ships, satellites, for example International cooperation
