SCI 209 Week 5 NOAA Activity FinalSection SCI 209 Week 5 The Flow ofEnergy SCI 209 Week 5 Discussion MarineOrganism ..................................................................................................................... ......................................... SCI 209 Week 1 DiscussionOceanography For more course tutorialsvisit www.tutorialrank.com In Week One we assess the Introduction and Overview of Oceanography. This begins by exploring the Earth’s physical properties and its chemical composition. In addition, we discuss the origin of life as it relates to oceanography. Finally, we discuss the modern tools and techniques used in oceanicresearch. Consider the reading and activities that you have completed thisweek. If you could explore any specific ocean, which would it be? Why would you choose that particular ocean? Do you believe oceanic research to be a worthwhile endeavor? Why or whynot? ..................................................................................................................... .........................................

  3. SCI 209 Week 1 Individual Assignment NOAA ActivityPart One Ocean Exploration (UOPCourse) For more course tutorialsvisit www.tutorialrank.com Navigate to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) site athttp://oceanservice.noaa.gov/ 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. http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/topics/oceans/oceanex/ Review the chosen exploration and create a 10- to12-slide PowerPoint® presentation with following items. Online Campus students must submit a 10- to 12-slide PowerPoint®presentation with presenter notes. Be sure to include the following in yourpresentation. List the basic categories of Earth’s chemical composition and physical properties, with an emphasis on how these factors relate to the ocean. Describe at least one of the early research theories about the origins of life on Earth. List the modern tools of research used in your chosen oceanexploration. List the goals and objectives of the mission and how it relates to the National Ocean Service’s overarchingmission. List the areas to be explored by the mission.
