Oceans cover ~ 70% of the Earth’s surface. Ocean Facts Oceans cover ~ 70% of the Earth’s surface.

Function and Facts Moderate the Earth’s temperature by absorbing solar radiation (heat radiation.) Currents distribute heat energy around the world. Oceans are all connected to each other in one giant basin. There are 5 recognized oceans.

The 5 Oceans Pacific: The largest and deepest ocean. It contains the Mariana trench which is over 36,000 ft deep. Atlantic:The ocean closest to us. It’s the 2nd largest. Indian: Located beneath southern Asia. Southern: Most recently recognized. Arctic: Smallest. Frozen in the North.
