NATIONAL OCEANOGRAPHIC PROGRAM—1965 237 
Cornell University 
Ithaca, New Yor 
Graduate students and a limited number of undergraduate students 
participate in long range research on the oxygen resources of 
coastal waters, and on the physiology of marine zooplankton, 
during the summer months and other academic recesses. Coopera- 
tive research with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution 
similarly provides opportunity for student experience. Academic 
facilities at Ithaca include an oceanographic laboratory 
equipped for analytical and experimental studies.
