to types of materials. Such studies provide important information 

 on the structure of the ocean bottom and from this hypotheses and 

 theories of general geophysical interest concerning the information of 

 the oceans and the continents can be made. 



In addition to these two major concerns many other interesting 

 related problems are being investigated. The deep scattering layer 

 is being studied acoustically and photographically; photographs of 

 the bottom are taken, ambient noise is measured, and specific noise- 

 makers are identified. Thank you. 



Mr. Chairman. This will conclude the hearings on Woods Hole, 

 Mass.
