Description
This special double length programme offers a montage of present day oceanographic activities and stories, with a brief dip into the past and a glimpse into the future. It explores the ocean depths... with ships and submersibles, we see how satellites are used to measure the global ocean surface, and how powerful computer models are beginning to predict ocean circulation.
