Abstract
This paper presents a general discussion of topics which contribute to an understanding of the problems involved in materials selection for long-life oceanographic instruments. Included are discussions of marine environment, fundamentals of corrosion, fundamentals of fouling and attack, and the behavior of common engineering materials in sea water.
