Marines compose a branch of a country's navy, often designated a corps rather than a service. Marines are naval infantry, specialising in fighting on ships and conducting amphibious assaults.Note that some countries do not differentiate branches of their armed forces, as Israeli Defense Forces, Canadian Armed Forces.

Marine biology is the study of animal and plant life within saltwater ecosystems. Given that in biology many Phyla, Families and genera have some species that live in the sea and others that live on land, marine biology deals with those species in which life is spent only (or mainly) in the water, thus its classification is based on the environment rather than on taxonomy.Marine biology is a huge field, given that a large (exactly how large is unknown at this point) porportion of all life on earth is contained in the oceans. Included in this are many species that are economically important to humans, including the food fishes.
Aspects of and problems in marine biology
Marine biology covers a great deal, from the microscopic plankton (with phytoplankton hugely important as the primary producers of the sea), to the huge cetaceans.
The study of marine biology obviously reserves a great deal of attention for the physical effects of continual immersion in the ocean, as well as for the ways that various oceanic properties changing affects marine life. How oceanic factors affect distribution of various organisms is also studied.
Recent marine biotechnology has focused largely on marine biomolecules, especially proteins, that may have uses in medicine or engineering.
An interesting branch of marine biology is aquaculture.
Marine environments are the home to many exotic biological materials that may inspire biomimetic materials.
History of marine biology
In recent times, marine biologists are trying to complete the mapping of underwater species with the help of modern techniques, which could help in exploring the deepest oceanic depressions in which it is supposed that new species could be found, eventually of potential great interest also for the theories on evolution.
Related fields
Marine biology is closely linked to both oceanography and biology. It also encompasses ideas from ecology. Fisheries science can be considered a partial offshoot of marine biology, as can marine conservation.
Institutions, well known journals, etc.
Many universities teach courses in marine biology.

(This page is about the bodies of water designated as oceans. For other uses, see Ocean (disambiguation).)
Three quarters of the surface of the Earth is covered by ocean. This global, interconnected body of salt water is divided by the continents and larger archipelagos into five oceans as follows:
The boundaries between the oceans are set by the International Hydrographic Organization; e.g., the Southern Ocean extends from the coast of Antarctica to 60 degrees south latitude. Smaller regions of the oceans are known as seas, gulfs, straits, etc.
- Arctic Ocean
- Atlantic Ocean
- Indian Ocean
- Pacific Ocean
- Southern Ocean
See sea water for a detailed discussion of ocean water composition, most notably its salinity.
Exploration
Study of Earth's oceans is called oceanography. Travel on the surface of the ocean through the use of boats dates back to prehistoric times, but only in modern times has extensive underwater travel become possible.
The deepest point in the ocean is the Marianas Trench located in the Pacific Ocean near the Northern Mariana Islands. It has a maximum depth of 10,924 m (35,838 ft). It was fully surveyed in 1951 by the British navy vessel, "Challenger II" which gave its name to the deepest part of the trench, the "Challenger Deep".
Climate
One of the most dramatic forms of weather occurs over the oceans: hurricanes (called typhoons in the eastern Pacific Ocean). Ocean currents greatly affect Earth's climate.
Ecology
The oceans are home to many forms of life, such as:
- fish
- cetacea such as whales, dolphins and porpoises,
- cephalopods such as the octopus
- crustaceans such as lobsters and shrimp
- marine worms
- plankton
- krill
Economy
The oceans are essential to transportation: a huge portion of the world's goods is moved by ship between the world's seaports. Important ship canals include the Saint Lawrence Seaway, Panama Canal, and Suez Canal.
Extraterrestrial oceans
Earth is the only planet known with liquid water on its surface, and is certainly the only such in our own solar system. However, liquid water is thought to be present under the surface of several moonss, most notably Europa. Other icy moons may have once had internal oceans that have now frozen, such as Triton. There is currently much debate over whether Mars once had an ocean of water, and over what happened to it if it did.
Liquid hydrocarbons are thought to be present on the surface of Titan, though it may be more accurate to describe them as "lakes" rather than an "ocean". The distribution of these liquid regions will hopefully be better known after the arrival of the Cassini probe.

A sea (pronounced see) is a large expanse of saline water connected with an ocean. The term is also used for large, usually saline, lakes that lack a natural outlet, such as the Caspian Sea and the Sea of Galilee. The term is used in a less geographically precise manner as synonymous with ocean, as in the tropical sea or down to the sea shore, or even sea water referring to water of the ocean.Many seas are marginal seas.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Seawater is water from a sea or ocean. On average, seawater in the world's oceans has a salinity of ~3.5%. This means that for every 1 liter (1000mL) of seawater there are 35 grams of dissolved salts (mostly, but not entirely, sodium chloride). Water with this level of osmolarity is not potable.Sea water is not uniformly saline throughout the world. The planet's freshest sea water is in the Gulf of Finland in the Baltic Sea. The most saline sea is the Red Sea, where heat increases the rate of surface evaporation and there is little fresh inflow from rivers.
Composition of Earth's ocean water by element Element Percent Element Percent Oxygen 85.7000 Sulfur 0.0885 Hydrogen 10.8000 Calcium 0.0400 Chlorine 1.9000 Potassium 0.0380 Sodium 1.0500 Bromine 0.0065 Magnesium 0.1350 Carbon 0.0026
Ocean Salinity
Scientific theories behind the origins of sea salt started with Sir Edmond Halley in 1715, who proposed that salt and other minerals were carried into the sea by rivers, having been leached out of the ground by rainfall runoff. Upon reaching the ocean, these salts would be retained and concentrated as the process of evaporation (see Hydrologic cycle) removed the water. Halley noted that of the small number of lakes in the world without ocean outlets (such as the Dead Sea and the Caspian Sea), most have high salt content. Halley termed this process "continental weathering".
Halley's theory is partly correct. In addition, sodium was leached out of the ocean floor when the oceans first formed. The presence of the other dominant element of salt, chlorine, results from "outgassing" of chlorine (as hydrochloric acid) with other gases from Earth's interior via volcanos and hydrothermal vents. The sodium and chlorine subsequently combined to become the most abundant constituent of sea salt.
Ocean salinity has been stable for millions of years, most likely as a consequence of a chemical/tectonic system which recycles the salt. Since the ocean's creation, sodium is no longer leached out of the ocean floor, but instead is captured in sedimentary layers covering the bed of the ocean. One theory is that plate tectonics result in salt being forced under the continental land masses, where it is again slowly leached to the surface.
Cultural Aspects
Even on a ship or island in the middle of the ocean, there can be a "shortage of water" meaning, of course, a shortage of fresh water. This is described most famously by a line from Samuel Taylor Coleridge's The Rime of the Ancient Mariner:
Seawater can be turned into drinkable water by the process of desalination.
- "Water, water, every where,
- Nor any drop to drink.".

Marine Corps emblemThe United States Marine Corps (USMC) is the smallest branch of the United States Armed Forces, with 170,000 active and 40,000 reserve members in 2002. The USMC serves as a versatile combat element, adapted to a wide variety of combat situations. Its original purpose, giving it the name Marine Corps, was to provide naval infantry (combat forces serving aboard naval vessels), and to conduct amphibious operations from the sea onto land. The latter tactic was fully developed and utilized in World War II, most notably in the Pacific Island Campaign. The Marine Corps is part of the Department of the Navy (but not part of the United States Navy).
Commandant of the Marine Corps
The Commandant of the Marine Corps is the highest ranking officer of the Marine Corps. Even though there are occasionally higher ranking Marine officers, the Commandant is still considered to be in charge of the Marine Corps. The Commandant is a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and reports to the Secretary of the Navy, but not to the Chief of Naval Operations.Marine Generals Peter Pace (Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff) and James Jones (Commander in Chief of the United States European Command; NATO Supreme Allied Commander, Europe; and a former Commandant of the Marine Corps) are Marines currently senior to the Commandant.
Creation
The United States Marine Corps was first established as the Continental Marines during the American Revolutionary War by a resolution of the Continental Congress on November 10, 1775. They served as landing troops for the recently created Continental Navy. The Continental Marines were disbanded at end of war in April of 1783 but were reformed on July 11, 1798.Since its inception, the Marine Corps has been recognized for combat prowess, and the Corps' role has been expanded significantly. Currently, the Marines serve as an all-purpose, quick-response task-force, suitable for quick insertion into areas where emergency intervention is required, and capable of utilizing ground, air, and sea elements. For example, in 1990, the 22d Marine Expeditionary Unit (22d MEU) conducted Operation Sharp Edge, a so-called NEO, or Non-combatant Evacuation Operation in the west African city of Monrovia, Liberia. Liberia was suffering from civil war at the time, and US and other civilians were not able to depart via conventional means. Sharp Edge was successful. Only one reconnaissance team came under sniper fire (no casualties either side), and several hundred civilians were evacuated within hours to US Navy vessels waiting offshore.
The Marines are unique in their mission statement, and do not necessarily fill unique combat roles. The Marine Corps is the only branch of the US Armed Forces with a mission to do whatever the President may direct. The US Army, US Navy, and US Air Force combined do overlap pretty much every area that the Marine Corps covers. However, the Marines consistantly utilize all of the essential elements of combat (air, ground, sea) together, and have perfected these tactics over the years, whereas the larger services may not work together as often, and may take some time to learn to function together in a combat theatre. The Marines do not, and should not take the place of the Army, Navy, and Air Force, any more than the ambulance takes the place of the hospital, but when an emergency situation develops and there is little time to be dealing with communications and/or political problems, the Marines essentially act as a stop-gap, to get into and hold an area until the larger machinery can be mobilized.
The Marines have one further difference from the other US military services: all marines, male or female, no matter what the occupational specialty, are trained first and foremost as riflemen. Thus the Marine Corps, at heart, is an infantry corps. The Corps has a creed stating "Every marine a rifleman first."
Historically, the United States Marine Corps is known for several campaigns as referenced in their anthem "From the Halls of Montezuma to the Shores of Tripoli". In the 1800s, Stephen Decatur led a group of Marines against the pirates of Tripoli, and separately, the Marines were known for their part in the war against Mexico.
The Marines are proud of their Gung-ho attitude and are inculcated with a strong belief in their chain of command and the importance of esprit de corps, a spirit of enthusiasm and pride in themselves and the Corps.
The Marine motto is "Semper Fidelis" (Always Faithful), sometimes just pronounced in the shortened form "Semper Fi!".

Chain of Command
Marines can task organize to any size unit.Typical deployment size is a Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU). This is a rifle battalion, with a battery or artillery, a platoon of LAVs, an air component, and a service support elements.
A Marine Expeditionary Brigade (MEB) is larger than a MEU with multiple rifle battalions.
A Marine Expeditionary Force (MEF), as deployed in Iraq, is a Marine division, with a artillery regiment, several tank battalions, several LAV battalions, etc.
