| Notes |
GEBCO: associated meeting, proposer and year of proposal (en): Associated meeting: SCUFN-29. Proposer: Leighton Rolley, Schmidt Ocean Institute, USA. Year of proposal: 2015. |

GEBCO: discoverer and year of discovery (en): Discoverer: U.S. research vessel "Falkor". Year of discovery: 2014. History: Named in recognition of the outstanding service that Engineers have collectively provided to ocean sciences. Engineers serving on board oceanographic and survey vessels across the globe are, and have been for over a century, the unsung heroes of science at sea. Engineers face daily challenges to keep the vessel running, the lights working etc. In addition to supporting vessel maintenance, engineers often assist the science party with fabrication and equipment problems that can determine the success of an expedition and the data that is produced. As technology advances and vessel systems become more complex the role of engineers in cruise support not only becomes more obvious but more critical. |
