BIOL 289 Introduction to Marine Science
At its most basic, marine science is the study of the world's oceans. This includes the dynamic processes that govern the ocean, such as the movement of water currents and the availability of sunlight for photosynthesis. It also includes examining the unique challenges for life in salty water, which is often dark and cold. Marine science is traditionally divided into four key areas: biological, chemical, physical, and geological. This course will provide students with an introduction to all 4 of these areas, including an exploration of how each of these interact with and affect marine life.
