Benefit Of Ocean Exploration

Select Explore from the menu, then select Ocean Exploration listed below Oceans. Choose an explorative mission that took place at a marine sanctuary or an ecological preserve. This is the specific web site to use as a launching point for further research.

The death penalty is procedure conducted by the government by which a person is put to death as a punishment for a crime. The crimes that can sometimes carry the death sentence in places like the US are war crimes, treason, murder, crimes against humanity, espionage and genocide. 103 countries as of today have fully removed the death penalty except for special crimes e.g. War crimes. Although this is a step in the right direction (for most people) 56 countries are known to perform the death penalty.

Within explicit texts, "Into the Deep," by Spencer Kayden moreover including, "What's Down There," by Mackenzie Carro, there is a ubiquitous theme concerning the correspondence between humankind and the subterrene ocean. It investigates how we are achieving to find life submerged in the sea using modern technology. It explains that we continue to discover multiple forms of life underneath the shores using research and submersibles. Because of this detail and additional ideas pointed out in both pieces, the two are more comparable than expected.

The world is home to many living things, the majority of life on earth though is living in the ocean with a percent of 94%. Since the beginning of the 1800s, man has been mapping the great oceans and what’s in them, but no more than 90 years ago have we started to look deeper. The ocean hasn't been completely explored, but with the advances in ocean exploration technology, scuba diving’s, and with those finds of strange creatures and treasures along the way.

Presented in an informal style of writing, “What Is Ocean Exploration and Why Is It Important?” inform its readers about the importance of researching and discovering the unknown ocean. It explains how much work is needed for the documentation of the ocean in varies areas, at the same time it addresses that scientist will be able to better understand the unknown oceans. For example, the time needed to obtain and study the result, as well as answer how the change in atmosphere will cause the ocean to react and affect life. The information obtain will also provide the baseline for scientist, researcher and government agencies to make important and dangerous decisions for the future. Sometime during research amazing things happen and new resources may be revealed. Besides informing about the ocean researching, the article also has a background idea as it is trying to encourage and get its readers interested into joining the field of ocean researching by emphasizing the role the ocean plays and how it will help ensure that ocean resources are well managed for future generations to enjoy.

70 percent of the Earth's surface is made up of oceans, yet less than 5 percent of the ocean has been explored. According to scientist Cheryl Bardoe in her essay, "Living in the Dark", there is so much to learn about the ocean and it's inhabitants. With the help of today's technology, scientists are able to explore the ocean deeper than ever before. The United States should be involved with major exploration of the ocean because more time and money has been spent exploring space and there is still so much to learn about the ocean.

The National Science Foundation is an independent federal agency created by congress “to promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defense…" Each year they are given a budget of millions of dollars to fund research in all fields of fundamental science and engineering, excluding medical sciences. One major project the National Science Foundation funds is called Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI). The OOI is an integrated infrastructure project composed of science-driven platforms and sensor systems that measure physical, chemical, geological and biological properties and processes from the seafloor to the air-sea interface. The Ocean Observatories Initiative was created to better understanding of earth oceans and being able to solve problems such as climate change, ecosystem variability, ocean acidification, and carbon cycling.

Astonishingly, Did you know that we have better maps of the moon than we do of the ocean? (#7) It’s true! Scientists are working to make drones to explore the deep sea. Ocean Exploration is a developing science that incorporates the use of marine biology and drone technology. Ocean Exploration technology will be an overall benefit to society because 1. exploring the ocean is easier than before and 2. ocean exploration can help with monitoring the deep sea.

In my opinion, the benefits of European exploration did not outweigh the consequences. To support my opinion, this essay will include three topics that each show both pros and cons. Those topics include the Columbian Exchange, Smallpox, and Columbus’s voyages.

oceanographers study the ocean which cover seventy percent of the earth's surface. They study the largest area on earth which we have not seen ninety five percent of and where an estimated five hundred million people go year during the summer. They have found many things but they still have many fish and oil pockets to find in the ninety five percent that we have not seen, and hey who knows what we will find maybe we will find the next big source of energy in the ocean or a new type of fish that can

In Europe, there was widespread support for overseas exploration, from three groups of people. The European rulers supported the voyages financially because they hoped the explorers would bring back precious metals and materials that could be sold and used to aid them in war. Along with the leaders, European traders hoped for benefits from the explorations such as, gaining precious trade goods and new suitable land for growing and selling crops, all with a high profit in mind. The final group of supporters were the religious leaders. They believed that through expansion, many new people would be available for conversion to Christianity. Also, they hoped that the missionaries might be able get in touch with an ally against the Muslims, named

Since the beginning of the human race, people have flocked to the ocean. The largest civilizations were built in fertile, coastal areas. Oceanographer and professor at Stanford University, Mark Denny, opened up his book, How the Ocean Works: An Introduction to Oceanography, with the statement, “Throughout history, men and women have been drawn to the sea” (Denny 1). Here in Hawaii, this is especially notable. Hawaii was discovered by islanders who were adventuring across the sea, using it to feed them and working with the currents on their journey. Now, hundreds of years later, visiting the white sandy beaches and crystal blue waters of Hawaii is on nearly the whole world’s bucket list, but it might not be around for much longer. This would be devastating to the planet, as environmental expert Jennifer Weeks says oceans supply most of the Earth’s food and oxygen (Weeks). Not only does the sea provide the most basic necessities for survival, but it has also provided “...Anticancer and antiviral drugs based on substances produced by coral reef species...” (Weeks). Despite all the research that has been done, and is currently underway right this moment, we still know less about the ocean than we do about space! Elisabeth Mann Borgese, an expert in environmentalism, has written, “Our ignorance of the ocean is profound, and although we have learned much during the last hundred years, our knowledge of ocean processes and life in the oceans will remain forever incomplete” (Borgese 23). As Borgese said, it is impossible to learn all there is to know about the sea, but knowing what to do to fix the state of the world’s oceans is vital and attainable information.

For many years humans have struggled to discover the deepest parts of the ocean and have also struggled with discovering space. We could not go really deep into the ocean, because humans can not withstand the pressure that the ocean produces. But now there is a robot that can reach the ocean floor called “The Benthic Rover”. With that new robot, scientist will be able to record how changes on the surface of the ocean will impact the marine animals below. “What is special about the rover is that we will be able to stay in the deep parts of the ocean for a really long time collecting seasonal changes data” (Engineer Alana Sherman). With Benthic Rover,

The ocean is one of Earth's most valuable natural resources. It provides food in the form of fish and shellfish—about 200 billion pounds are caught each year. It's used for transportation—both travel and shipping. It provides a treasured source of recreation for humans. It is mined for minerals (salt, sand, gravel, and some manganese, copper, nickel, iron, and cobalt can be found in the deep sea) and drilled for crude oil.

The mysterious vastness beyond Earth has allured many scientists to explore and contribute much of their effort to the understanding of space. Although humans have been looking up at space for thousands of years, the physical exploration of this frontier has been only going on for the past few decades. Our current understanding of space is unparalleled to any time before in our history, but we still only know a small fraction of what there is to learn. Governments around the world spend about $40 billion dollars a year (Rockefeller, 2010) hoping to undertake tasks such as “human exploration of the solar system” to discovering the origins of life itself (Tatarewicz, 2009, p. 531). Recently, the private sector has also shown interest in space exploration in order to engage in profitable activities such as harnessing minerals from asteroids. Although it is easy to debate about the benefits and negatives of space exploration in its entirety, it is simpler focus on one aspect of it - the direct effect it has to those down on Earth. Rather than trying to decide whether or not going to other planets is worth it, this paper will argue about the value of the terrestrial benefits of space exploration. It is an important topic to think about as programs such as space exploration change lives and help acquire knowledge. Despite the large costs associated with space exploration, the multitude of discoveries in the past few decades has greatly improved daily life on Earth, the jobs the
