The oceans is an essential component to surviving, but it’s also one of the most affected by the climate change. According to the EPA website, the greenhouse gases emitted trap heat and this heat is increasing the temperature of the oceans around the world. Over the past three decades, the surfaces temperature of oceans has been increase higher than any other time period. The oceans are a vital part of surviving; it provides 50 percent of all the oxygen in the world. However, with surface temperature

specialize in studying large ocean animals all the way down to microscopic organisms. Marine Biologists study life in not only the ocean, but also other brackish (salty) waters such as estuaries, bays, and tidal flats. They do not just study ocean life, but also the destruction we humans do to our oceans and how to understand how the ocean process works. Marine Biologists also provide the information needed to create new management methods to build a sustainable future for the ocean. Marine biology is thought

Why don’t Oceans freeze. In many parts of the world , winter temperatures drop low enough to make rivers and lakes freeze. In these parts of the world, the ocean will not freeze even though other water sources does. In the Arctic region, most of it is a tundra, which include frozen soil and animals such as polar bears and penguins. The ocean however is not frozen. One reason ocean water doesn’t freeze all the way through is because it’s so salty. Salt lowers the freezing point of water, meaning

Ocean overfishing is the process of removing wildlife from the ocean (or any other water sources) at unsustainable rates that lower their replication rates. Overfishing began around the mid-20th century. At this time, there were many attempts to increase the pricings and variety of protein-rich foods; this led to the government trying to increase the fish capacity. While the fishing operations advanced, the fish populations deteriorated. These operations ended up turning into profit-hoggers and started

Hurting the Ocean, Even If It’s Not on Porpoise The saltwater biome accounts for 70% of Earth’s surface area (KDE 1). This fact explains the amazing diversity and wonder of the ocean. However, in recent years it has become apparent that this astounding asset to the world is in danger. The ocean is constantly polluted by things ranging from garbage such as plastic bags, to pesticides from run-off (WFF 1). The Environmental Protection Agency and other organizations around the world should increase

thing a person thinks of when someone talks about coral reefs is the Great Barrier Reef or the movie "Finding Nemo" and how beautiful it is, with its vibrant corals and colorful fish swimming about. Coral reefs are vital to the world. Even though they only cover .1% of the ocean floor, they are home to 25% of all marine life. Home to many species of fish and acting as a nursery for little fish and also provide protection until they are big enough to venture out and protect themselves. It is a place

Many countries that depend on the ocean for food and other sources. As we send more and more transported goods over the seas we are polluting it killing and damaging more species and coral reefs of the wonderful things in the oceans. This blog is about how the oceans are slowly becoming less healthy to the world and how most problems with the ocean are man made. Global warming is affecting the oceans, pollution is another problem, the pollution oil spills and garbage. Global warming is causing

There are four named oceans in the world: Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, and Arctic. Roughly 70% of the earth’s oxygen is produced by marine plants and only 27% by rainforests. Over 80% of ocean pollution comes from land based activity. This activity can include, but is not limited to, burning oil and not recycling plastics. With knowing those statistics, people should undoubtedly be more concerned with our ocean’s health and well being than what they currently are. Yes, there are a copious amount of
