Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the first six years of the International Ice Patrol. Following the sinking of the Titanic, the United States Coast Guard, in conjunction with various other national organizations, set up the International Ice Patrol to monitor the presence of icebergs in the North Atlantic shipping lanes. Drawing from archival data from oceanographic vessels, patrol cutters, and meteorological records, the author gives a detailed overview of ice conditions in the North Atlantic from 1936 to 1941. The author uses these records to provide a detailed account of the Ice Patrol's first six years of operation and the wealth of scientific data they collected on ocean currents, temperatures, and weather patterns in the North Atlantic. The book provides a wealth of fascinating insights into the genesis of modern oceanography and the development of global navigation.
