70% of the Earth is covered in water.
More than half of the Oxygen you breathe
Is produced in the ocean.
Amniotic Fluid has the same salinity
As seawater.
If you like Ice Cream….you most likely
Ate it with some Seaweed
You may have brushed your teeth with marine skeletons this morning
How does Marine Science Impact you?

How do we Impact it?
The oceans produce two influences vital to life on Earth. Weather and world climate patterns dictate how warm, cold, wet, or dry it will be. This
largely determines where humans live on land.
In addition, the oceans provide three important marine resources:Food • Oxygen • Natural Resources (such as oil)
Humans have seen all of the Earth’s surface, but there’s far more to discover below than on it.
Humans increasingly change the oceans; pollutionand overfishing have caused serious damage, coralreefs are dying off, and there’s more.
What you learn here about the science of investigationand problem-solving, regardless of your final careerchoice, benefits you by making you a more capableperson who contributes to society.

Marine Science
Marine Science – the process of discovering the facts,processes, and unifying principles that explain thenature of the oceans and their associated life forms.
Oceanography – the science of recording anddescribing the ocean’s contents and processes.
There are four main branches of oceanography. Biological oceanography – studies life in the ocean.
Chemical oceanography – studies the chemistry of seawater.
Geological oceanography – studies the geology of the ocean.
Physical oceanography – studies the physics within themarine environment.
Technology has made marine exploration andits associated careers possible. It is throughtechnology that true marine exploration hasbecome possible.

OK so its really Oceanography??
How will we study it? Marine science involves four study areas beyond traditional
science disciplines: 1. Science as Inquiry – applying science as a way of
solving problems, answering questions. 2. Science and Technology – learning how science
advances technology and vice-versa. 3. Science in Personal and Social Perspectives – how
science affects you and society. 4. Historical Nature of Science – understanding how
science evolved as a discipline.

I thought this was Marine Science?
This course will include cross discipline content….integrating with many other disciplines Cross-discipline areas of study include:
Math - Mathematics is the universal “language” that helps you explainthe physical nature of the oceans.
History – A historical review provides insight to the past, present, andfuture of our oceans. A historical background provides a context of howand why the study of oceanography has changed over time.
Technology - Some say technology causes problems, some say itincreases our knowledge. It is really the advances in technology thathas made modern oceanography possible.
Social Sciences - Decisions about the environment may affect thelife of others on the planet.
Literature - Announcing scientific findings to others requires usingliterary and artistic forms.
Arts - The method of experimentation may be in the form of videographyor ethnography rather than the typical experiment.

How to use your textbook to Focus Study Headings (black) and subheadings (blue) divide each chapter.
Paying attention to these helps to organize the materials.
Learning Objectives are green: found under subheadings.
IMPORTANT: as you read, find the answers
to each of the learning objective questions.
Relevant supplement information: found
in the purple-boxed sidebars.
Photos and illustrations are red. These provide important
visual information to illustrate what you’re reading.
Quick Quiz is found at the end of a main
subject division. IMPORTANT: Review
the materials until you understand any
questions missed before moving on.
Review questions are found at the end of each chapter.

Learning Effectively with Life on an Ocean Planet
The first thing to do is survey this book. You do this by: First, read the table of contents; note chapter titles and subheadings. Next, go through from cover to cover. Pay attention to style and how it’s
laid out. Look for the pattern in identifying elements; the marine scientist profiles, quizzes, and reviews. Skim the glossary, index, and references.
Surveying before reading makes learning more efficient and effective. It does this by establishing your mental framework about marine science.
After surveying the bookthere are five study steps tofollow as you learn.
