Oceanography is a branch of Science that studies the ocean.
There are different branches of Oceanography.
These are:
---quote--
* Biological oceanography, or marine biology, is the study of the plants, animals and microbes of the oceans and their ecological interaction;
* Chemical oceanography, or marine chemistry, is the study of the chemistry of the ocean and its chemical interaction with the atmosphere;
* Geological oceanography, or marine geology, is the study of the geology of the ocean floor including plate tectonics;
* Physical oceanography, or marine physics, studies the ocean's physical attributes including temperature-salinity structure, mixing, waves, internal waves, surface tides, internal tides, and currents. Of particular interest is the behavior of sound (acoustical oceanography), light (optical oceanography) and radio waves in the ocean.
