Oceanography (Hunting)

The science of all aspects of the oceans, in spite of its etymology. The term, oceanography, however, implies the interrelationships of the various marine sciences of which it is composed. This connotation has arisen through the historical development of marine research in which it has been found that a true understanding of the oceans is best achieved through investigations based on the realization that water, its organic and inorganic contents, motions, and boundaries are mutally related and interdependent.
