Abstract

Like many of the male scientists at Lamont, Heezen was primarily occupied with collecting ocean data, which Tharp would then analyze, plot and map - work she was more than qualified to do. Features Walk the halls of an academic earth science department, and you'll likely find displayed on a wall somewhere a strikingly beautiful map of the world's ocean floor.
