Marine Geosciences

Marine earth wisdom, or geological oceanography, is the study of the history and structure of the ocean bottom. It involves geology, geochemistry, sedimentological, and paleontological examinations of the ocean bottom and littoral zone. Marine earth wisdom has robust ties to geology and to physical earth wisdom. Marine matter surroundings are centered on palaeontology, geobiology, pale-oceanography and archaeology, organic and inorganic snippet biogeochemistry, marine minerals, carbonate sedimentology, and thus the physical parcels of sediments and crustal jewels. More than half of our nation's population lives among the fifty long hauls of the seacoast. Healthy littoral and coastal conservation areas are veritably important to our nation's frugality. The USGS studies littoral revision, hazards that impact littoral areas, ocean coffers, and littoral and marine ecosystems.
