Oceanographers are scientists who apply biological, chemical, physical, and geological principles to the study of the world's oceans. They study flow patterns such as currents, circulation, and tides; the relationship between the oceans, weather, and climate; chemical factors such as contaminants; and ocean interactions, for example with air, ice, and land formations. 2, record 2, English, - oceanographer
