SETPOINT Sussex Planet Science Sources of funding Women in STEM Sarah - Marine biologist "What I like about my job is its variety. I'm learning new things all the time. I enjoy influencing others and making a difference in the marine environment and I like the fact that my opinion is valued." At school, marine biologist Sarah was always more interested in sciences, especially biology, than other subjects. She chose to study marine biology at university because specialising seemed a better career move and she had always "had close links with the marine environment and enjoyed activities like diving and sailing." On graduating , Sarah went on to take an MSc degree (for part of this she received an EC grant) and was then offered a post with the National Rivers Authority (now merged with other organisations into the Environment Agency). Always 'an environment type at heart' she now works as a Science Team Leader, running environmental assessment activities for the Agency's North East region. Her team completes water and sediment quality work for the marine environment, under guidance from special water quality staff, and carries out all the marine biological work for the region. The work is important for several reasons. It must be carried out to comply with statutory EC Directives, it is important that quality is assessed and monitored, and it is sometimes necessary to carry out special investigations related to pollution problems or improvement schemes. Sarah recently worked on an investigation into kittiwake deaths off the north east coast.

Careers in Marine Science Advice to Students and Parents From the Scientists of Mote Marine Laboratory Science is the systematic discovery of knowledge about the natural world, and marine science is the general term for research conducted in oceans and coastal or inland waters connected to the sea. Marine scientists work in a surprising variety of disciplines. Examples include planetology, meteorology, physics, chemistry, geology, physical oceanography, paleontology, and biology. Marine science also includes archaeology , anthropology, sociology, engineering and other studies of human relationships with the sea. Scientists in such disciplines may be highly specialized. Geologists, for example, may concentrate on coastal processes, dynamics of the continental shelf or slope, or structure of the ocean floor. Chemists may work entirely at the interface of the sea and atmosphere, in the zone affected by ocean waves, at the maximum depth of light penetration, or in the environments created by deep sea thermal vents. Biologists may work mostly in tropical waters or polar seas, on plants, invertebrates, or vertebrates. Many marine scientists have multiple specialties or work as part of multi disciplinary teams. Marine scientists are employed by universities and colleges, international organizations, federal and state agencies, private companies, nonprofit laboratories and local governments, or they may be self-employed . Marine scientists draw professional salaries and may be rewarded richly for their work in intangible ways, but they almost never become wealthy by American standards. Salaries depend on each person's education, experience, and specific discipline. Location, the present supply of scientists, and other factors also affect individual salaries. Examples of marine sciences that presently pay above-average salaries are physical oceanography, marine technology and engineering, and computer modeling.

Indeed, many students have misconceptions about what an oceanographer does and perhaps, more importantly, what training the profession requires. Oceanography is a science. Interested high school students should prepare for the career by taking courses in algebra through calculus, biology, chemistry, physics, and computer science. In college, you should major in general sciences or specifically marine sciences or engineering. Most oceanographers continue on to a graduate program. Graduate schools divide oceanography into five major subdivisions: biological oceanography, physical oceanography, chemical oceanography, geological oceanography, and oceanographic engineering. Depending on the institution, masters and/or doctoral degrees will be offered. Take care in choosing an advisor, since her/his guidance is critical to your career, and their interests often shape those of their students.

H ow can I get a job in oceanography, especially at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution? O ceanographers are individuals highly trained in one of the basic scientific disciplines: biology, physics, geology, chemistry, mathematics, engineering, or a combination of these fields. It is inevitable that an oceanographer will become deeply involved with all sciences. Preparation for a career in oceanography should begin as early as possible with a concentration in one scientific discipline. In high school, you should plan your studies around college-preparatory courses including math, English, science, and foreign languages. In college, you should choose a basic field of science in which to earn your first academic degree. In graduate school, you may adapt your studies to the marine environment. Intensive training in basic science is necessary so that you may apply this knowledge and skill to the study of the oceans.

Doctoral degree holders face considerable competition for independent research positions, particularly in universities; holders of bachelor’s or master’s degrees in biological science can expect better opportunities in nonresearch positions. Biotechnological research and development will continue to drive employment growth. Nature of the Work About this section Back to Top Biological scientists study living organisms and their relationship to their environment. They research problems dealing with life processes. Most specialize in some area of biology such as zoology (the study of animals) or microbiology (the study of microscopic organisms). ( Medical scientists , whose work is closely related to that of biological scientists, are discussed elsewhere in the Handbook Biological scientists who work in applied research or product development use knowledge provided by basic research to develop new drugs and treatments, increase crop yields, and protect and clean up the environment. They usually have less autonomy than basic researchers to choose the emphasis of their research, relying instead on market-driven directions based on the firm’s products and goals. Biological scientists doing applied research and product development in private industry may be required to describe their research plans or results to nonscientists who are in a position to veto or approve their ideas, and they must understand the potential cost of their work and its impact on business. Scientists increasingly are working as part of teams, interacting with engineers, scientists of other disciplines, business managers, and technicians. Some biological scientists also work with customers or suppliers and manage budgets.

Marine Biology Since the early days of Jacques Cousteau, the science of marine biology and biological oceanography has been viewed by the general public as the adventurous pursuit of diving beneath the crystal blue waters of the ocean to swim with whales and photograph the multicolored life teeming in the warm waters of a coral reef. Although studying the living creatures of the sea can be interesting and rewarding, it does not always involve such glamorous outdoor activities. A marine biologist may spend much time collecting organisms in coastal waters as well as on the open ocean. He or she will definitely spend much time in the laboratory peering through a microscope, doing chemical analyses, or entering data into a computer. Marine biology cuts across many fields of study and covers many subjects. As a result, a marine biologist may specialize in such areas as marine ecology, physiology, anatomy, botany, or fisheries. Marine Biology also encompasses applied areas of study. These may include studying effects of toxic chemicals on living organisms, culturing shellfish and finfish, and studying human impacts on the marine environment. Marine Biologist In the MMS, marine biologists use their training in a variety of ways. For example, they design environmental studies that assess potential impacts of oil and gas development on the marine environment. Many studies have been carried out to investigate the impacts of drilling products on marine creatures living in the water column and around the production platform. MMS marine biologists also study resources of the Gulf of Mexico such as coastal wetlands, seagrasses, barrier islands, submarine banks, and live bottoms.
