Russian marine expeditionary investigations of the world ocean - NOAA Atlas NESDIS 56 (NCEI Accession 0000954)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Metadata Last Checked: January 26, 2026 | Last Modified: 2003-03-14T00:00:00.000+00:00
This dataset is an Adobe(tm) Acrobat(tm) file (.pdf) of the publication 'Russian marine expeditionary investigations of the world ocean - NOAA Atlas NESDIS 56'. The following abstract is from the publication: The history of Russian oceanographic expeditionary research is very rich and full of numerous global-scale discoveries of great scientific importance. However, it is a very difficult task to introduce a comprehensive review of multidisciplinary marine investigations, which date back over 300 years. This publication is an endeavor to present the most important results of sea voyages and ocean expeditions performed by Russian seamen from the late 17th century up to the present. It is intended to familiarize the international oceanographic scientific communities as well as anyone interested in historical Russian marine exploration and the current state of expeditionary research. In particular, this monograph may be particularly useful for students and officers in navigation schools as more general information about Russia's marine expeditionary research is presented. This monograph presents information on the most famous expeditions and the results from these investigations, the national and international projects (programs) involving Russia, and the organizations contributing to research of the world oceans.
