But in spite of all this, the ocean remains drastically unexplored, and the details of its impact on human lives aren't fully understood. Scientists from around the world are realizing that to address issues plaguing the ocean, such as dead zones, coral bleaching, and climate change, we need to better understand this incredible, unique feature of our planet. With a range of impressive, cutting-edge technologies at their disposal, oceanographers have set out to measure, sample, and analyze at every turn. Every day, mysteries about the ocean are being solved, and every day, new questions come to light. The more scientists learn, the better they are able to answer these new questions. What lies in the deep? And who is at the forefront of these exciting discoveries? The scientists and research included in this book shed light on the most pressing issues currently facing oceanographers and point us in the right direction to solving these challenges." -- $c (Source of summary not specified.) 521 $a Ages: 13-18. 521 $a Grades: 9 to 12. 541 $d 20201207. 650 7 $a Underwater exploration $v Juvenile literature. 650 4 $a Oceanography $v Juvenile literature. 650 4 $a Ocean $x Juvenile literature. 650 $a Marine resources $x Management $v Juvenile literature. 650 $a Restoration ecology $v Juvenile literature. 650 $a Marine biology $v Juvenile literature. 650 $a Marine ecology $v Juvenile literature. 650 $a Climate change mitigation $v Juvenile literature. 710 $a Twenty-First Century Books (Firm). 941 $a 3 952 $l XSPE157 $d 20230801011059.0 952 $l ZUPD675 $d 20211012011202.0 952 $l VMPC334 $d 20210130011938.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E69A4A8A62C811EBBBC4168156ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
