work ; 
for engineering needs and for the development, construction, or acquisi-. 
tion cf new or improved vehicles and instruments for ocean or Great Lakes. 
research and exploration which may include, but shall not be limited to, 
bathyscaphs, mesoscaphs, self-propelled deep sea data collecting vehicles, 
and other manned and unmanned submersibles, wave measuring equipment, 
systems engineering for reduction of data, manned and unmanned buoys.

marines modified or converted for scientific use, vessel positioning systems, 
seismic equipment, turbulence measuring devices, oceanographie sound-.

struments, devices, and systems as may be useful in studies of the current 
structure of the oceans, oceanic temperatures, bottom topography, sedi-- 
ments, heat flow through the ocean bottom, sound transmission and veloc- 
ities, ambient noise, biological activity in the marine environment and. 
specimens, water samples for salinities, phosphates, oxygen, nitrogen, and’ 
other chemical or elemental components of the oceans, and for recording: 
and communication of oceanographic data of scientific value. 
for time series oceanographic observations and research conducted on. 
and from radar picket ships or other suitable vessels operated by the Navy: 
Provided, however, That equipment costs for such time series oceanographic 
observations and research conducted on or from such ships not exceed. 
$82,500 per ship during the ten-year program authorized in subsection (f) 
of section 13 of this Act, and that operations costs of this program not. 
exceed $58,000 per ship per annum in any year of the ten-year program; 
for establishing a program of scholarships for selected students and. 
postdoctoral fellowships as authorized in section 13(g) of this Act: Pro-. 
vided, however, That costs to the Department of the Navy for these scholar-- 
ships and fellowships not exceed $300,000 per annum. 
DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY 
Src. 15. The Secretary of the Army is authorized and directed, with such- 
funds as may be appropriated or otherwise made available to him, to undertake: 
a ten-year program of study and research by the United States Army Corps of 
Engineers, through the Beach Hrosion Board, as part of the general program. 
for the development of the marine sciences in the United States. In further- 
ance of the purposes of this Act, the Secretary is authorized and directed to- 
earry out, in addition to programs now underway, the following activities relat- 
ing to physical oceanography in the near-shore areas of the Atlantic and Pacific 
Oceans, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Great Lakes, which areas include the zone-
