Jacques Cousteau to kelp
launch ‘Texas Clipper 9
THE BATTALION
WEDNESDAY. JUNE 5. 1974
Page 3
GALVESTON—Jacques Cous
teau was to be on hand here this
morning to help launch the summer
cruise of the “Texas Clipper,”
15,000-ton training ship operated
by A&M.
The converted oceanliner will
take approximately 150 students on
a two-month island-hopping swing
around the Caribbean and Gulf of
Mexico. About half the students will
be Texas Maritime Academy cadets
and the other half participants in
TAMU’s “Summer School at Sea.”
Coeds will take part in the cruise
for the first time this year. Four
women have already signed on.
Dr. William H. Clayton, provost
of TAMU’s Galveston-based Moody
College of Marine Sciences and
Maritime Resources, said Cousteau
will be aboard the “Clipper” from 10
to 11 a. m. to wish the departing stu
dents well.
“We re inviting all parents, rela
tives and friends of the students
Library materials

going on the cruise, as well as other "
- interested persons, to come aboard —
for coffee and visit with Captain
Cousteau oh this happy occasion,”
Clayton said.
The famed oceanographer has
been named by the Texas Maritime
Academy cadets as one of their two
honorary commandants. The other
is Mrs. Mary Moody Northen of
Galveston.
The ship will sail shortly after 11
a.m. from TAMU’s Mitchell Cam
pus on Pelican Island.
Ports of call include San Juan,
- Puerto Rico; Philipsburg, St. Maar- ~
ten, Netherland Antilles; Willems
tad, Curacao; Cartagena, Colombia;
U.S. Naval Base, Guantanamo Bay,
Cuba, and Vera Cruz, Mexico. The
“Clipper” will stop at New Orleans
and Port Arthur en route home, ar
riving back in Galveston Aug. 5.
Relocation of some University
Library materials will take place in
the next few months.
The library will disperse the basic
collection into other holdings, in
stall additional shelving on all floors
and move fine arts and humanities
holdings to the first floor.
Changes will be made as rapidly
as possible to reduce inconvenience
to library users, announced Richard
Puckett, assistant director for public
services.
Cushing Building renovation will
later require some revision in regu
lar library schedules.
Re-processing and re-shelving of
basic materials from the first to the
third and fourth floors began in
early May. The reference function
of the Basic Division will remain,
but will serve as General Reference.
Social science holdings will remain
on the third floor.
Shelving will be installed as it be
comes available. It will reduce cor
ridor and lounge area space, Puck
ett noted.
Ocean waves simulated in lab
aid in nutrient travpl study
Dr. Takashi Ichiye and Yasuhiro
Sugimori don’t have to go to sea to
learn its mysteries—they simulate
ocean phenomena in the laboratory.

“In order to simulate the vertical

cylindrical tank approximately four
feet in diameter. The tank’s bottom
is shaped much like the bottom to
pography of the Gulf of Mexico off
the Texas coast, with a plateau-like
feature in the middle to provide a
“shelf.”
Average depth of water in the
tank is eight inches. The tank is ro
tated counter-clockwise to corres
pond to the Northern Hemisphere.
A motor-driven paddle on the outer
rim produces waves which propa
gate along the shelf.
With such an arrangement, the
experimental variables in the sys
tem are bottom topography, rota
tion rate and pulsation frequency.
Dr. Ichiye said the shelf waves
have amplitudes of about three in
ches, with the associated current
also small.
Oceanography
gets funds
from NSF
Department of Oceanography
has received additional funding
from the National Science Founda
tion for support of research ac
tivities on board the R/V Gyre,
newest addition to TAMU’s
oceanographic fleet.
Dr. Richard A. Geyer, professor
and head of TAMU’s Oceanography
Department, said in announcing
the $38,700 addition to the current
research support program, that the
funds will be used in ship operations
scheduled for this summer in the
South Atlantic and the Mediterra- -
nean Sea.
Dr. Geyer explained the NSF
funds will enable the Gyre to sail the
world’s oceans in search of under

“The practical importance of
these waves is their influence in
producing upwelling,” he exp
lained.
Upwelling causes the transport of
nutrients from the bottom, which is
necessary for fish production.
“Upwelling along the West
Coast may be produced by seasonal
changes of wind, but along the Gulf
Coast shelf waves are produced by
hurricanes, ” the oceanography pro
fessor added. “It is possible that I
