Marine Geosciences and Oceanography

The oceans cover more than one-half of the surface of the Earth. Therefore, as the global population grows, so does the demand for a better understanding of the properties and resources of this mostly unexplored region. This theme explores all the aspects related to the marine geosciences and their impact on the Earth System.
