This report documents the scientific education and research programs
undertaken on the 41st cruise of the R/V Westward under direction of Sea
Education Association, Woods Hole, Mass. Primary among our purposes on this six
week cruise was to give its twenty-three students a multidisciplinary exposure
to oceanographic concepts and research techniques, drawing on the
various backgrounds of the staff and the sampling equipment on board. To
this end, students were offered a wide range of relevant lecture material
and on watch instruction; they were required to participate as assistants
in staff directed research, as well as accomplish a personal research
project of their own design. This program thus comprises Boston University
Course NS CLX 225, Introduction to Marine Science Laboratory.
