Science foundation renews Aggie week beat i surfei row t finall; fines Th Texas man £ that n He A&M Ocean Drilling Program until 2003 By BRANDI JORDAN Reporter of THE BATTALION The Ocean Drilling Program, a $40-million--a-year program in earth sciences at Texas A&M Uni versity, has been renewed through October 2003. The director of ODP, Dr. Philip D. Rabinowitz, announced the program's renewal at an employ ee brunch on Tuesday. Texas A&M is the science oper ator for the program, which in vestigates the origin and evolu tion of the earth's crust, changes in global climate, ocean currents, worldwide sea levels and the earth's magnetic field. The National Science Founda tion funds the ODP with contri butions from 19 member coun tries including many European entities, Canada, Australia, Japan and the former Soviet Union. The National Science Board, made up of a panel of scientists, will review the program in 1998 to determine if it should continue scientific ocean drilling using the drill ship 'JOIDES Resolution' or if it should explore other options. "Alternative methods could in clude platform drilling, a second ship or a number of other models that we haven't even thought of yet," Rabinowitz said. Committee members noted in their preliminary review that the ODP is "widely acclaimed as one of the best (if not the best) pro grams that has ever been attempt ed." The ODP, which began its op erations in 1984, has drilled in all of the world's oceans and seven of its seas. During that time,ilrt covered more than 60 milesu sediment and rock that enable; researchers from around thf world to study the earth's oiign and evolution. ^ Scientific accomplishmenil over the past nine years include i revising the history of continent and oceans, and advancinf knowledge regarding climatolog) and biological evolution. Scientists from around (lie world now have opportunities i better understand the interaction: between the air, ocean and lithos phere as well as geochemicalq cles and energy exchanges. During its nine years drilling, more than 1,000 scientist from 30 countries have sailel aboard 'JOIDES Resolution which is currently onits45il cruise. ence. I.D. c< you tl wait i entrai I.D.

The facility, named the Center for Aggregate Research, was opened last week by the two uni versities through an endowment from the Aggregate Foundation for Technology. A combined Texas A&M-University of Texas proposal for the endowment beat out 11 other proposals from 26 other universities across the coun try. According to Texas A&M's University Relations, Aggregate Foundation officials cited the high national rankings of the engineer ing programs, state-of-the-art fa cilities and on-going research pro grams at both schools as reasons for choosing the joint proposal. The center holds offices in both College Station and Austin allow ing the two universities to share the research. Dr. Dallas Little, the Herbert Kelleher Professor of Transporta tion at Texas A&M, will direct ac tivities at the A&M center and UT civil engineer. Dr. David Fowler will be the coordinator of the Austin-located center. The main focus of the center, as a whole, is to conduct research to lead to more effective and efficient use of the components of road pave ments. Although the pavement components, also referred to as aggregate materials, are not con templated by the average driver. Little said the research will affect a lot of business and, therefore, a lot of money. "Aggregate manufacturers and suppliers represent the largest® tity in the highway industry,® industry that itself represent! nearly 18 percent of the Unitei States gross national product," 1* said. "When you look at the high way industry as a whole, thegr® 1 significance of this effort is moK evident." Dr. Charley Wootan, the dir® tor of Texas Transportation Inst tute, said the joint research be tween the schools is not the firs 1 combined effort. "There are many research p® grams going on between the re gional universities," he said. Wootan explained that the base center's Austin location does no 1 diminish the importance of A&M in the effort. "The universities in the effort normally decide who will take the lead, but the research is always evenly split," he said. Little said the concentration at the A&M center will be on asphalt aggregates and the concentration of the Austin center will been Portland concrete; the white con crete. "We have overlapping expel- tise in these areas, so even though these are our focuses, we will not be bound by these lines by anl means," Little said. According to University Rela tions, the Texas Department of Transportation played an impor tant factor in getting the center lo cated in Texas. "(The department of trans portation) was very supportive in enticing the center to locate here, Little said in a press release. "The department clearly has a strong commitment to research and thal was more evident in their support of this (Texas A&M-UT) propos al." ] IS G
