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 may be 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;

RESEARCH EDUCATION PEOPLE GENERAL INFORMATION ... U.S. Government The Florida State University Department of Oceanography graduate program offers both master of science and doctor of philosophy graduate degrees in oceanography with specializations in biological, physical, geological, and chemical oceanography. Graduates from the Department of Oceanography hold many faculty positions in universities and colleges, as well as research posts in industry, private research institutions, federal and state laboratories, and regulatory agencies. The placement of our graduates attests to the quality and integrity of this fine oceanography graduate program. Faculty Positions Available FSU is recruiting new faculty members in Oceanography. See the Position Advertisement for additional information. As part of FSU's initiative to hire 200 new faculty, Oceanography and other departments will be hiring six new tenure-track faculty members in the area of Extreme Events and Climate two of which are anticipated to be in Oceanography. See this Position Advertisement for details.

Part of NASA's mission is to develop an understanding of the total Earth system and the effects of natural and human-induced changes on the global environment. Our oceans play a major role in influencing changes in the world's climate and weather. Collecting and analyzing long-term ocean data from satellites is a relatively new field of exploration. The analysis of remotely-sensed ocean data makes it possible to understand the ocean in new and exciting ways. Ocean Exploration at NASA Exploration is discovery through disciplined, diverse observations and the recording of findings... [+ more] Prior to satellite data, most of what we have learned about the oceans had come from infrequent measurements collected from ships, buoys, and drifters. Ship-based oceanographers are limited to sampling the ocean in a relatively small area with often a great deal of difficulty. Data from ships, buoys, and drifters are not sufficient to characterize the conditions of the spatially diverse of the ocean. The advent of ocean-observing satellites has launched a new era of marine discovery. Remotely sensed satellite data and modeling techniques enable the global mapping of seasonal changes in ocean surface topography, currents, waves, winds, phytoplankton content, sea-ice extent, rainfall, sunlight reaching the sea, and sea surface temperature. Studying these patterns at a global scale help forecast and mitigate the disastrous effects of floods and drought. Images generated by ocean observing satellite missions tell us volumes about the most fundamental climate changes. During the last decade, forecasting models have benefited from satellite data as they have improved the ability to predict events such as

6. Oceanography: Home The official magazine of the oceanography Society aims to promote and chronicle all aspects of ocean science and its applications. http://www.tos.org/oceanography/index.html

Oceanography magazine contains peer-reviewed articles that chronicle all aspects of ocean science and its applications. In addition, Oceanography solicits and publishes news and information, meeting reports, book reviews, and shorter, editor-reviewed articles that address public policy and education and how they are affected by science and technology. We encourage submission of short papers to the Breaking Waves section that describe novel approaches to multidisciplinary problems in ocean science. Oceanography is published in March, June, September, and December in online and paper format.
