Science and Marine Biology
Ocean and Marine Organisms - Ocean covers over 70% of the earth - Affects global weather patterns - Provides food and vital resources

Science and Marine Biology
Productivity – the amount of food produced by marine organisms and the number of organisms the ocean can support
Leading area of research in marine ecologyOver 80 million metric tons of marine fish and shellfish harvested annually

Science and Marine Biology
Study of the SeaOceanography: the study of the oceans
and their phenomenaMarine Biology: the study of organisms
and their reactions with each other and their environment

Science and Marine BiologyKnowledge of Marine Biology:
- Helps us understand how marine organisms relate to us
- Helps us understand how human activities affect the marine environment
- Helps conscientious citizens make prudent decisions that involve the sea

Science and Marine Biology
History of Changing Perspectives - science has advanced over the years as new technologies have been developed - Initial studies of marine organisms can be traced back to the ancient Greeks and Romans
![Page 8: MARE 171 Marine Biology: Diversity Dr. Turner Fall 2014.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc45503460f94ab65c3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Science and Marine Biology
History of Changing Perspectives - Aristotle – first to develop scheme of
classification; “Ladder of life” - Pliny the Elder
– Roman naturalist;works in Natural History

Science and Marine Biology
History of Changing Perspectives-modern sciences of oceanography and marine biology continued in 18th and 19th century: Jean-Baptiste Lemark, Georges Cuvier, Charles Darwin
![Page 10: MARE 171 Marine Biology: Diversity Dr. Turner Fall 2014.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc45503460f94ab65c3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Science and Marine Biology
History of Changing Perspectives- HMS Beagle 1831 – Charles Darwin;
observations of atolls- 1859 – On the Origin of the Species
by Means of Natural Selection

Science and Marine BiologyHistory of Changing Perspectives-modern sciences of oceanography and marine biology originated with the Challenger expedition in the 19th century
- 1876 – 4,700 new species collected- Plankton – term for organisms that
drift in ocean current, coined in 1887

Science and Marine Biology
History of Changing Perspectives - First marine laboratory in US was founded by Louis Agassiz in 1873; purpose of helping teachers improve their teaching methods
![Page 13: MARE 171 Marine Biology: Diversity Dr. Turner Fall 2014.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc45503460f94ab65c3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Science and Marine Biology
History of Changing Perspectives- In early 20th century, expeditions were mounted to study the Arctic and Antarctic seas and their inhabitants - Marine laboratories play a vital role in both marine and basic biological research
![Page 14: MARE 171 Marine Biology: Diversity Dr. Turner Fall 2014.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc45503460f94ab65c3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Science and Marine Biology
Process of Science - Inductive Reasoning: involves looking at individual observations and proposing a general explanation for them; octopus and squid are observed with suckers so a cephalopods have suckers
![Page 15: MARE 171 Marine Biology: Diversity Dr. Turner Fall 2014.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc45503460f94ab65c3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Science and Marine Biology
Process of Science- Deductive Reasoning: is the process of reasoning whereby observations suggest a general principle from which a specific statement can be derived; cephalopods have suckers, a cuttlefish is a cephalopods, therefore, cuttlefish have suckers
![Page 16: MARE 171 Marine Biology: Diversity Dr. Turner Fall 2014.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc45503460f94ab65c3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Science and Marine Biology
Process of ScienceScientific Method – orderly pattern of gathering and analyzing information
Step 1: - Making observations
Good researchers are good observers as well as creative thinkers
![Page 17: MARE 171 Marine Biology: Diversity Dr. Turner Fall 2014.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc45503460f94ab65c3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Science and Marine Biology
Process of ScienceStep 2: Using inductive reasoning to form a hypothesis
Hypotheses are formed after a researcher notices patterns or relationships and makes an educated guess as to the probable answer
![Page 18: MARE 171 Marine Biology: Diversity Dr. Turner Fall 2014.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc45503460f94ab65c3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Science and Marine Biology
Process of ScienceStep 3: Using deductive reasoning to design experiments
Deductive reasoning – observations suggest a principle from which a specific statements can be derived - used to design experiments and test hypotheses
![Page 19: MARE 171 Marine Biology: Diversity Dr. Turner Fall 2014.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc45503460f94ab65c3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Science and Marine Biology
Process of ScienceHypotheses are tested with experimentsWell designed experiments test only one variable at a time - called the Experimental Variable – factor that is altered in an experimentTwo trials are run – each with a different variableExperimental set – has experimental variableControl set –without experimental variable
![Page 20: MARE 171 Marine Biology: Diversity Dr. Turner Fall 2014.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc45503460f94ab65c3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Science and Marine Biology
Process of ScienceSteps 4 & 5: Gathering results and drawing conclusions
Conclusions drawn from experiments lead scientists to either accept or reject their hypotheses

Science and Marine Biology
Process of ScienceThere are times when controlled experiments are not possible or feasible
Observational science involves observing and describing and possibly theorizing; but not testing
Theory – is a body of observations that have stood the test of time
