		Sir John Murray finds the source of the phosphoric acid to be the decomposition of large quantities of animal matter, and he illustrates this by the well-known circumstance of the death of vast shoals of fish when warm Gulf-Stream water displaces the cold current which usually extends to the American coast.
		Murray and Renard define globigerina ooze as containing at least 30% of calcium carbonate, in which the remains of pelagic (not benthonic) foraminifera predominate and in which remains of pelagic mollusca such as pteropods and heteropods, ostracodes and also coccoliths (minute calcareous algae) may also occur.
		Sir John Murray calculates that at least 80% of the water in the ocean has a temperature always less than 40 F., and a recent calculation by Krummel gave in fact a mean temperature of 39 F. for the whole ocean.

	Oceanography - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Oceanographers study a diverse range of topics such as plate tectonics to ocean currents to marine organisms.
		The five branches tend to stem from the fact that many oceanographers are trained in the exact sciences and then specialise in oceanography.
		Early exploration of the oceans was limited to its surfaces and the few creatures that fishermen brought up in nets, but when Bougainville and Cook carried out their explorations in the South Pacific, the seas themselves formed part of the reports.

	BELIEVE THE HYPE? BILL MURRAY IN THE LIFE AQUATIC.
		Murray supplies his usual poise, but you can't help but feel that he's skating a little too easily through this material, as he has for years.
		There's a dilapidated "Iron John" nonsense to many of Murray's recent assignments; his movies sympathetically follow him as he struggles with his thwarted manhood until he either cries, hugs or gracefully walks off into the distance, forever emotionally crippled.
		While there is something to admire in Murray's desire to play wounded grownups, once the surprise of him in more dramatic roles wears off, I'm not quite sure what he brings to these films.

		The entire project was conceived and organised through the perseverence of Sir John Murray, the oceanographer, and funded by his lifelong friend Laurence Pullar, whose son Fred tragically drowned in the early years of the Survey.
		Murray was an experienced oceanographer, who had become very interested in the different physical and biological conditions presented by sea and fresh water lochs.
		It was initially Sir John Murray's intention to abandon the Survey altogether, but at the request of Fred's father Laurence, who donated the sum of £10,000 to a trust to support the project, the work continued.

	Sir John Murray - Founder of Oceanography
		Born in Canada of Scottish descent, Murray came to Scotland to be educated and eventually entered Edinburgh University, ostensibly to study medicine.
		During this period and into the 1900's Murray also conducted research, from various addresses in Edinburgh, on marine deposits and oceanographic observations in the N.E. Atlantic and off western Scotland, the tropics and the great oceans, with notable collaboration from Anderson, Buchanan, Irvine and Hjort.
		The year 1914 was catastrophic for the oceanographic community, as John Murray was killed by a motor car as he crossed Frederick Street, Edinburgh.

		Both Murray siblings were also in a 1975 off-Broadway spin-off, also dubbed The National Lampoon Hour; there Murray was spotted by sportscaster Howard Cosell, who recruited him for the cast of his ABC variety program, titled Saturday Night Live With Howard Cosell.
		Murray too became a celebrity, developing a fabulously insincere and sleazy comic persona which was put to good use in his first major film, the 1979 hit Meatballs.
		Though the mere thought of Murray as Polonius in a film adaptation of William Shakespeare's Hamlet may have elicited dumbounded looks and confused laughter early in his career, that was precisely how the versatile thespian ushered in the new millennium in director Micheal Almereyda's modern updating of the classic drama.

		Oceanography (also called oceanology or marine science) is the study of the earth's oceans and their interlinked ecosystems and chemical and physical processes.
		The beginnings of oceanography as a science in its own right really began in 1872, when C.W. Thomson[?] and John Murray (oceanographer)[?] set out on the Challenger expedition (1872-76).
		The two most well-known in the United States are the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

		During the early years of the patrol observations on plankton, at well as surface tem- peratures and salinities, were used to trace the drift of water carrying icebergs into the shipping lanes; later the techniques of dynamic oceanography were introduced to estimate on the spot the velocity of the movement.
		The establishment of an oceanographic institution on the east coast of the United States originated in conferences begin- ning in 1924 between Wickliffe Rose, then president of the General Education Board, and Frank R. Lillie, the director of the Marine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole.

		Oceanographic expeditions began with the three voyages of Captain James Cook of the British Royal Navy over the period 1768-80.
		In this work, he correctly argued that the form and structure of reefs and atolls develop because they are living organisms growing upward in an effort to remain in the photic zone as compensation for the sinking seafloor.
		While the first genuine for-science-only oceanographic voyage was probably the British Challenger Expedition of 1872-76, the United States launched the U.S. Exploring Expedition in 1838-42.
