The Oceanography Society announces its inaugural meeting, to be held at the Monterey Convention Center and the adjacent Doubletree Hotel, Monterey, California, on August 27–30, 1989. The program will be uniquely unifying for oceanography, and it will highlight the diversity of the field as well. It will be multi-disciplinary, with three days organized around a central theme of importance to the future of oceanography.
