Ben’s CV Ben Korgen 6/6/2017 5.
1998- Appointed as Member, National Advisory Board for UMD Athletics.
1998- Selected as science advisor by children’s fiction writer Joan Verniero.
1996 Created ocean current analysis for the Swimmer Oceanographic Information Chart
(SOIF) used in the movie “G.I. Jane.”
1996 Commendatory letter sent by Buddy Teevens, head football coach at Tulane
University, just after his 1996 upset victory over Cincinnati. Previous to the Cincinnati game,
I had shared my ideas with Buddy during 12 hours of meetings. In his letter, Buddy states
that he used many of my ideas and that they played key roles in Tulane’s upset of
Cincinnati.
1993-1998 Created ocean current analyses sent worldwide to U.S. Marines, Seal Teams,
and Mine Warfare Forces.
1981-1998 Received sixteen performance awards (special service, superior, or outstanding)

program controlled by the Naval Oceanographic Office.
1974 Awarded tenure by unanimous vote, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.
1971 Lead author (with Gunnar Bodvarsson and Rod S. Mesecar) of a Journal of
Geophysical Research paper demonstrating that a symmetrically spreading ocean-floor
ridge crest can generate an asymmetric heat-flow profile, a phenomenon that required
explanation to prevent its existence from becoming an obstacle to plate tectonics theory.
1969 Performed Ph.D. dissertation research in the deep-ocean bottom boundary layer that
Ben’s CV Ben Korgen 6/6/2017 6.
explained a widely identified discrepancy between the Monin-Obukhov similarity theory and
measured superadiabatic temperature gradients that appeared to but did not actually
negate this theory. The results demonstrated that the Monin-Obukhov similarity theory
could be effectively used for predicting conditions in the near-bottom shear zone present in
all of the world’s oceans. Also demonstrated that the temperatures measured by a pressure
protected thermistors in waters deep enough to reveal the influence of pressure on the
adiabatic temperature gradient are significantly influenced by the thickness and structural
design of the pressure protection cases.
1965 Commendatory letter sent by Rolf Bolin of Stanford University, chief scientist on the
Te Vega Expedition, to Wayne V. Burt, head of the oceanography program at Oregon State
University. The letter refers to my mouth-to-mouth resuscitation of a fellow graduate student
during a diving accident that occurred on the 1965 TeVega Expedition.
1965 Member of the scientific party on the first expedition to discover that the Pacific Ocean
surface is extensively populated far from land by surface-skimming insects related to the
water-striders commonly found on the surfaces of inland lakes. (It was previously thought
that the only insects in the ocean had fallen into nearshore waters from vegetation on land.)
1965 Member of the scientific party on the first American vessel to use a surface-skimming
Neuston net.
1965 One of twelve graduate students and the only graduate student in the physics branch
of oceanography selected worldwide to participate in Stanford University's predominantly
biological Te Vega Expedition.
Travel
Lived from 5 to 21 years in each of America’s four major aquatic regions. Professional,
family, and recreational life entailed repeated criss-crossing of the U.S. by land and air.
Naval and oceanographic careers involved extensive travel by sea, including mileage
equivalent to several circumnavigations of the earth with visits to 49 foreign countries or
