Exploration of the Ocean Oceanography: Oceanographers: study the ocean & its floor up to 6.4 km into the ocean floor Ocean floor: is made up of continental.
COASTLINES Aquatic Science coast: the zone extending from the ocean inland, as far as the environment is immediately affected by marine processes.
