This introductory oceanography text is intended to teach students the tremendous influence oceans have on our lives. They are encouraged to look at oceanography as a cohesive and united discipline rather than a collection of subjects gathered under a marine umbrella. Investigating Oceanography teaches students about the historical, geological, physical, chemical and biological characteristics of the ocean environment using remarkable images and photos. The authors have incorporated essays written by several scientists discussing topics in their fields of specialisation. In addition to understanding processes and principles, the authors believe students must have a basic command of the language of marine science in order to understand information concerning our planet and marine issues. By the end of this course, students will be prepared for future environmental discussions and have the ability to make informed decisions.
