Oceanography From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Thermohaline circulation Oceanographic frontal systems on the southern hemisphere Oceanography (from the greek words meaning Ocean and meaning to write), also called oceanology or marine science , is the branch of Earth Sciences that studies the Earth 's oceans and seas . It covers a wide range of topics, including marine organisms and ecosystem dynamics; ocean currents waves , and geophysical fluid dynamics; plate tectonics and the geology of the sea floor; and fluxes of various chemical substances and physical properties within the ocean and across its boundaries. These diverse topics reflect multiple disciplines that oceanographers blend to further knowledge of the world ocean and understanding of processes within it: biology chemistry geology meteorology , and physics Contents Sub categories History Ocean and atmosphere connections Major oceanographic institutions and programs ... edit Sub categories The study of oceanography is divided into a number of branches: Biological oceanography , or marine biology , is the study of the plants, animals and microbes ( biota ) of the oceans and their ecological interaction;

Kathleen S. Chemistry Occupations Home Agricultural Chemist Analytical Chemist Archeaologist ... Materials Scientist What is Oceanography? The Ocean takes up almost three fourths of the Earths surface. It is filled with animals and plants and is perhaps one of the most interesting aspects of nature. The study of the oceans and the plants and animals it contains is called oceanography. A person who studies the oceans and the plants and animals it contains is called an oceanographer. Are there different types of oceanographers? Yes, like many other jobs, there are different branches of oceanography. Four types of oceanographers are biological oceanographers, geological oceanographers, marine scientists, and physical oceanographers. Although each division of oceanography works with the ocean, each division also specializes in a certain area. For example, a physical oceanographer monitors the surface and currents of the ocean while a biological oceanographer studies the marine life in the ocean. How is oceanography realated to chemistry?

Sources of Additional Information Significant Points Environmental scientists and hydrologists often work in offices, laboratories, and field sites. Federal, State, and local governments employ 43 percent of all environmental scientists and hydrologists. Although a bachelor’s degree in an earth science is adequate for a few entry-level jobs, employers prefer a master’s degree; a Ph.D. degree generally is required for research or college teaching positions. Job prospects are expected to be favorable, particularly for hydrologists. Nature of the Work About this section Back to Top Environmental scientists and hydrologists use their knowledge of the physical makeup and history of the Earth to protect the environment, study the properties of underground and surface waters, locate water and energy resources, predict water-related geologic hazards, and provide environmental site assessments and advice on indoor air quality and hazardous-waste-site remediation. Environmental scientists Hydrologists study the quantity, distribution, circulation, and physical properties of bodies of water. Often, they specialize in either underground water or surface water. They examine the form and intensity of precipitation, its rate of infiltration into the soil, its movement through the Earth, and its return to the ocean and atmosphere. Hydrologists use sophisticated techniques and instruments. For example, they may use remote sensing technology, data assimilation, and numerical modeling to monitor the change in regional and global water cycles. Some surface-water hydrologists use sensitive stream-measuring devices to assess flow rates and water quality.

This teen oceanographer is using a sieve net to identify the fish inhabiting the area. What is an oceanographer? An oceanographer can be a biologist, chemist, physicist, geologist, engineer, mathematician, computer scientist, meteorologist, or you! As a relatively new frontier, oceanography is a wonderfully challenging and exciting field of study providing many career opportunities. It's an important field of study because oceans encompass 70% of the earth's surface, and they also have an important role in understanding global weather patterns. Chemical, geological, and physical oceanographers investigate the physical aspects of the ocean, such as salinity, currents, and the ocean floor. Biological oceanographers study marine plants and animals and their processes within the context of their ocean environments. Ocean engineers provide the technology and instrumentation that allows oceanographers to explore questions and solve problems in a variety of ways. Oceanographers are global scientists who study a wide variety of topics. There is never a shortage of questions to answer or things to discover! For instance, as a chemical oceanographer you might study how sea water and sediments form, how pollutants and waste disposal impact the ocean, or how the ocean affects climate. As a physical oceanographer you study the ocean from a "big picture" perspective, often using satellites (remote sensing) to understand how and where water moves, and how the ocean interacts with the land and atmosphere to influence weather patterns. As a marine geologist or geophysicist, you may study the formation of beaches, map the earth's interior, or drill into the ocean's floor to discover the ocean's history of sea-level rise and earthquakes. Understanding these questions helps to develop sound management policies for harvesting seafood, responding to pollution, and recovering resources for biotechnology.

Ocean engineers provide the technology and instrumentation that allows oceanographers to explore questions and solve problems in a variety of ways. Because the oceans are linked to our survival on planet Earth (comfortable climate and oxygen to breathe), oceanographers work side by side with policy makers, social scientists, educators, and businesses to develop effective ways of managing and maintaining our ocean resources. Our dependence on the global ocean will increase as we look to the ocean to sustain our expanding population's needs such as food and water. Through continued research and new technology, we are learning how the oceans affect life and the future of our planet.

Careers ADVERTISMENTS Occupational Therapist Operations Researcher Optical Dispenser Optical Technician ... List of Careers MY CAREER CHOICE Oceanographer Career Description Oceanographers study the sea and all its different facets such as the sea floor, marine life, ocean currents, the physical and chemical composition of the water and also the air above the ocean. The entire field, including the deep ocean and continental shelf regions as well as the shore with its dunes and tidal rivers fall within the sphere of activity of oceanographers. What am I going to do in this occupation? Oceanographers are involved in one of the following five branches of oceanography: Physical Oceanography Physical oceanographers study the physical properties of water such as temperature, salt content and density and phenomena such as currents, waves and shores. They also study the interaction between the sea and the air above and how it influences the weather and climate. Issues such as global warming and the ozone layer are currently under investigation. Marine Biology This involves all aspects of plant and animal life in the sea. Marine biologists study the occurrence, distribution and development of plants and animals and how these are influenced by environmental factors.
