Department of Oceanography Winter 1998 / Spring 1999 - Vol. 6, No. 3 Oceanographers at work: Training and careers for tomorrow's ocean scientists by Kimberly Mace Cruise the web for ocean careers! Link to additional resources for oceanography and marine science careers Oceanography is interdisciplinary, meaning that oceanographers use their knowledge about several basic science fields like chemistry, geology, physics, meteorology, biology, or mathematics to better understand the ocean. Students attending oceanographic institutions will likely specialize in one of the four main areas of oceanography: Physical oceanographers study oceanic circulation, its influence on biological and chemical processes, and the interaction of the ocean with the atmosphere. They also study water masses in the ocean and how energy from the sun or wind reacts with the sea, and apply principles of physics to gain knowledge about ocean circulation. Chemical oceanographers study natural and man-made chemical compounds in the ocean's waters and seafloor, interactions of atmospheric compounds with the ocean's surface, and dissolved and suspended materials in the water column. Geological oceanographers study the shape and material of the seafloor, the origin of seafloor sediments, causes of geological formations, and predict geological events (such as seafloor volcanoes).

California's first oceanographers: The Chumash Indians In studying past cultures and especially early California cultures, it strikes me how little we know about the science of these people. As we'll learn in our discussion of the Polynesians, these ocean-going cultures sure knew what they were doing when it came to the ocean. They were able to navigate using clouds and waves and sea birds and they knew when and where particular marine species could be found. In some areas, their knowledge of the sea surpasses our own, especially in their ability to observe a complex ocean landscape and interpret the underlying processes. For that reason, I've dubbed these early people as the first oceanographers. By all definitions of the word they qualify as oceanographers (and then some)! The first California oceanographers can be found among the Chumash Indians. In fact, any of the California coastal tribes, including the Gabrielino who occupied areas between Pt. Conception and Dana Point, could claim this honor. But archaeological evidence of Chumash people predates any other culture, so they title belongs to them for the time being. Now before I go any further, let me state emphatically that I am not an expert on indigenous people. My exposition here is intended to make you aware of the incredible skills these people possessed for oceangoing. There are currently many controversial issues surrounding the preservation and rights of their lands and culture and I support those discussions. If by some chance something here appears inaccurate or misleading, then by all means e-mail me. Indigenous cultures and their relationship with the sea is one of my favorite topics and I am happy to stand corrected on any account!

updated at midnight GMT search nature science update advanced search Oceanographers in noble pursuit Argon traces keep tabs on climate change. 21 January 2002 TOM CLARKE The warm gulf stream (red) as it travels across the Atlantic. A new method for detecting tiny quantities of a rare form of the element argon may help oceanographers to trace the vast undersea currents that regulate our planet's climate. The technique can pick out one atom of the rare isotope argon-39 ( Ar) amid 10 million billion other atoms. That's equivalent to detecting less than a litre of water in America's 300-mile Lake Michigan. Philippe Collon, a nuclear physicist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in Palisades, New York, and his colleagues modified a particle accelerator at Argonne National Laboratory near Chicago to find and count Ar atoms. Counting Ar "is decidedly tricky", says Collon. His team are still perfecting their technique. Previous efforts to count Ar atoms in seawater required thousands of litres of water and months of processing. Collon's technique should be able to measure the isotope's concentration in about 10 litres of water in a few hours. Ideal gas Rare Ar is produced in the atmosphere by cosmic rays hitting ordinary Ar - it then dissolves into the sea. Because the isotope decays at a fixed rate, the amount that remains at different depths tells researchers how long it has been since the water was last at the surface.
