Marine Biology

Marine Biology is the scientific study of organisms that inhabit the ocean and other saltwater environments. This field encompasses the exploration of diverse marine ecosystems, including coral reefs, deep-sea environments, and coastal areas, as well as the relationships between marine organisms and their habitats. Marine biologists investigate various aspects of marine life, including the physiology, behavior, ecology, and evolution of species ranging from microscopic plankton to large whales. The discipline also addresses the impacts of human activity, such as pollution and climate change, on marine ecosystems, aiming to promote conservation and sustainable management of marine resources. Overall, marine biology integrates aspects of biology, ecology, oceanography, and environmental science to enhance our understanding of ocean life and its significance to the planet.
