| MENTOR
Wheeler North sponsored and supervised
the NAS' Summer Scholar program at SIO in the 1950s. My first introduction
to the world of marine sciences was through that program, when I was
between my junior and senior year at Mission Bay High School. It was a
very important summer for me, as I worked with Carl and Laura Hubbs, Al
Stover and Art Flechhsig, and made several of the famous temperature runs
along the Baja California Coast. Little did I then know that I would
return in 1966 to spend 33 years at SIO in the time-series data collection
and management for CalCOFI. |
