This review is from: Oceanography (Merrill physical science series) (Paperback)

In this book I learned about the pycnocline zone
and the deep zone and that there was a lot less circulation than one might expect in the oceans.
Ocean currents and wind currents are very basic in navigation of the world's oceans.
The realization sets in that as big as the ocean is
humans can get it dirty with their wastes
just as they have the atmosphere with co2.
