Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Submarine Mines and Torpedoes: As Applied to Harbour Defence Many other authorities have been quoted and are duly acknowledged in the text. My own inventions connected with submarine mining are perhaps noticed too prominently, but it was necessary to illustrate the various and necessary contrivances by some special patterns, and it not unfrequently occurred that I was compelled to describe my own patterns or none at all, the Government gear being treated as secret and confidential. For a similar reason, it being impossible to indicate the defects of our service arrangements with precision, I have been compelled to attack their intricacy in general terms only. On matters connected with the personnel and the purchase of stores, however, it has been possible to go into detail; and if some of the remarks appear to be harsh, my excuse must be that the subjects required it. Minced language is not a desirable form of expression when the writer believes that the efficiency of an important item in National Defence is at stake.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental information is important for successful planning and execution of naval operations. A thorough understanding of environmental variability greatly increases the likelihood of mission success. To ensure that naval forces have the most up-to-date capabilities, the Office of Naval Research (ONR) has an extensive environmental research program. This research, to be of greatest use to the warfighter, needs to be directed towards assisting and solving battlefield problems. To increase research community understanding of the operational demands placed on naval operators and to facilitate discussion between these two groups, the National Research Council's (NRC) Ocean Studies Board (OSB), working with ONR and the Office of the Oceanographer of the Navy, convened five previous symposia on tactical oceanography. Oceanography and Mine Warfare examines the following issues: (1) how environmental data are used in current mine warfare doctrine, (2) current procedures for in situ collection of data, (3) the present capabilities of the Navy's oceanographic community to provide supporting information for mine warfare operations, and (4) the ability of oceanographic research and technology developments to enhance current mine warfare capabilities. This report primarily concentrates on the importance of oceanographic data for mine countermeasures.
