Oceanography

Definition of Oceanography as it relates to Science, Physical Science, Geology

Oceanography is the scientific study of the Earth's oceans, their origin and history, circulation, geological and chemical properties, and life forms. As a subfield of geology, it focuses on the physical and chemical characteristics of the ocean floor, including its sediments, rocks, and structures. By examining these features, oceanographers can learn about past tectonic events, such as the formation of underwater mountain ranges and the movement of continents. Additionally, they study how the ocean interacts with the atmosphere, influencing global climate patterns and weather systems. Oceanography encompasses various disciplines, including marine biology, geophysics, chemistry, and physics, providing a comprehensive understanding of the world's oceans and their impact on our planet.
