ABSTRACT:
Scripps Institution of Oceanography is a fictitious setting in several novels. Genres in which SIO appears include murder mysteries, romances, and science fiction. SIO appears under its own name or other names like Scripps Institute, University of San Geronimo Department of Oceanography, Oceanography Institute, Pacific Institute, Seaside Laboratory, Marine Research Institute, Brayton Institute of Oceanography, Dawson Oceanographic Institute, and Torrey Institution of Oceanography. Excluded are works where SIO is mentioned very briefly, typically to establish a character's credentials in a single sentence or two.
