This volume is the continuation of the series published in 1963 under the editorship of Maurice N. Hill. Originally, only three volumes covering physical oceanography composition of sea water, comparative and descriptive oceanography, and the history of the earth beneath the sea had been planned. However, the accumulation of a vast amount of knowledge in the relatively short period since those volumes were published, has necessitated continuing the series.
