Oceanography
is broadly divided into disciplinary subfields, including:
Interdisciplinary work in oceanography spans the boundaries between these traditional subfields. For example, marine geochemistry is an example of an interdisciplinary area of oceanographic work which combines aspects of geological oceanography and marine chemistry. Applied oceanography focuses on the use and management of ocean resources. Coastal engineering and marine resource management are examples of career areas in applied oceanography.
