Welcome to Marine Science

  • Marine science is the study of the deep sea to shallow coastal oceans: their biology, chemistry, geology and physics together make marine science a richly inter-disciplinary science. In this course will will study how volcanic activity affects not only the ocean but the whole planet. We will also look at how outside disturbances affect the ocean currents and tides. This Course will be an in depth study for all aquatic aspects.
