Then to view the distribution of selected energy and mineral resources of the Pacific region with respect to the geology in a series of maps (Figs. 4—9) compiled from various sources (Van Roy an and Bowles, 1952; ECAFE, 1962, 1963, 1970; McKelvey and Wang, 1969;.

Dr. Peter A. Rona is presently Senior Research Geophysicist with the NO A A, Atlantic Oceanograph- ic and Meteorological Laboratories in Miami, Florida and Adjunct Professor of Marine Geology and Geo- physics at the University of Miami. He is Chief Scien- tist of the Trans-Atlantic Geotraverse (TAG), an international cooperative project to investigate the Earth's crust along a corridor across the Atlantic be- tween southeastern North America and northwestern Africa to gain an understanding of continental drift, sea-floor spreading, and the occurrence of seabed minerals. He generally spends several months of the year at sea leading explorations of the seabed. Prior to joining NOAA in 1969 he was Exploration Geologist with Standard Oil Company () between 1957 and 1959. From 1960 to 1969 he was with Columbia University, Hudson Laboratories where he developed and became Head of Marine Geophysics. He received the degree of in 1967 from the Department of Geology and Geophysics at Yale Uni- versity. He has published about 50 scientific papers and is a member of 12 professional Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratories; Pacific Ocean
