What is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear, or see, the word “Marine”?

Was it this???

Or was it this??

The word “Marine”: Refers to anything of, found in, or produced by the sea.

Marine Biology vs. Oceanography Marine Biology is the study of life in the ocean. Oceanography is the study of the physical characteristics of the ocean Sir Charles Thompson is considered to be the “Father of Oceanography”.

Physical Characteristics of Water Color Temperature Turbidity- cloudiness Salinity- saltiness Pressure Currents Density

The Water Planet Earth is 71% water, 29% land.Earth is 71% water, 29% land. Most of that water is marine water – salt (97.5%)Most of that water is marine water – salt (97.5%) Less than 3% of the Earth’s water is freshwater.Less than 3% of the Earth’s water is freshwater. Of that 2% is tied up in glaciers and polar ice caps…Of that 2% is tied up in glaciers and polar ice caps… Which leaves less than 1% of the Earth’s water as drinking water.Which leaves less than 1% of the Earth’s water as drinking water.

Think of 3 things that are of, found in, or produced by the sea!

How many oceans? How many oceans can you name? Just like how many continents there are, this is a question that has no “correct” answer So… how many continents are there? Map activity

5 Oceans

What’s the biggest ocean? Pacific – sq km Atlantic – sq km Indian sq km Southern – sq km Arctic – sq km

Let’s Review 1.What is the difference between Marine Biology and Oceanography? 2.How much of our planet is covered by water? How much of that is freshwater? 3.Define the word Marine. 4.How many Oceans are there? Name them.
