[NEW COURSE] Over 70 percent of the surface of the Earth is covered by oceans. They are foreign worlds to us, but essential for the health of our planet. In this course we will study many aspects of the oceans: their chemistry, life in the seas, forces that make oceans come and go, and more. We will discuss environmental issues that the world’s oceans are facing in the 21st century.
