Geological Oceanographic MeasurementsContents |
Background
This very brief description is not intended to provide fundamental instruction in geological oceanography; as with all OceanTeacher materials, we leave basic marine education to the colleges and universities. This article merely provides a conceptual framework and terminology for data managers who may have a slightly different specific background, but who have marine data responsibilities.
Geophysical Surveys
Geological Samples
Geo-Hazards
Soils and Landcover
Beaches and Shores
[stick to the soil, sediment, sand, mud, rock subjects; this is not a general heading on coastal everything]
Special Role of Mapping
[just a few words; GIS is covered elsewhere]
Additional Resources
[links; stick to stable, permanent, major monographs and websites; just the really main sites and resources; use well-formed wiki reference format, and you can add gloss notes to explain them after the brackets close
