Институт по океанография Скрипс Институтът по океанография Скрипс (на английски Scripps Institution of Oceanography), понякога наричан просто Скрипс, се намира в кв. Ла Хоя, гр. Сан Диего, Калифорния. Създаден е през 1903 г. Днес се води като независим институт към Калифорнийски университет - Сан Диего. Той е сред най-старите и най-големите центрове за изследване на Земята, атмосферата и океаните. Изследванията се извършват с водоплавателни съдове и в наземни лаборатории. Институтът предлага докторски степени по морска биология, океанография и по науки за Земята.

Martin W. Johnson Martin Wiggo Johnson (September 30, 1893 – November 28, 1984), was an American oceanographer. Contents Background[edit] Of Scandinavian ancestry, Johnson was born in a farm house on the Great Plains in Chandler, South Dakota. As a young man, he was a general ranch hand. His family moved to Washington State, where he worked as a logger and as a guard on salmon traps.

Death[edit] Johnson died on November 28, 1984, in Snohomish, Washington.

Among Dr. Johnson's contributions are explanations for two newly discovered acoustic phenomena in the sea. These explanations brought biologist and physicists together in a common interest, and introduced underwater acoustics as a prime tool for marine ecology". Private life[edit] - He was a mandolin player - His hobby was wood carving - A scientific paper called Spectral properties of Noctiluca miliaris Suriray, a heterotrophic dinoflagellate, by W.M. Balch and F.T. Haxo (1983), was "...dedicated to Martin W. Johnson on the occasion of his 90th birthday".
