3.00 Credits
3 class hours 3 Credits Oceanography is a true science but not a traditional science. Oceanography is amultidisciplinary field, which encompasses the traditional fields of biology, geology, chemistry and physics. The beauty of oceanography is that it actually incorporates specific subsets of information from each of these disciplines in an integrated fashion. This course provides an overview of each of these fields is provided with the ocean environment as a general model. The marine environment of Southwest Florida provides an excellent laboratory setting to accomplish the overall objective of the course enabling students to see connections between the disciplines of biology, chemistry, physics, meteorology, economics and other disciplines traditionally viewed as separate. For themost part, OCE 1001C covers geological, chemical, and physical oceanography. This course can be taken in any order with OCE 1002C.
