Deep Discussions

Rigorous discussion and free exchange of ideas were hallmarks of Henry Stommel‘s intellectual style. Here, the renown physical oceanograher engages in one such discussion with George Veronis, of Yale University. In addition to serving as a long-time colleague and sparring partner of Stommel’s, Veronis was also co-founder in 1959 of WHOI’s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Program.
