long-term seafloor electromagnetic observation in the northwest
... It has long been pointed out that a “land-locked” view alone cannot provide the true image of the Earth because the continents occupy only 30% of the Earth’s surface. Disciplines in solid Earth geophysics such as seismology strongly require an “ocean-locked” view of the Earth as well as the “land-lo ...

Effects of global warming on oceans
![](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:FilePath/Waves_on_Ocean_Coast.jpg?width=300)
Global warming can affect sea levels, coastlines, ocean acidification, ocean currents, seawater, sea surface temperatures, tides, the sea floor, weather, and trigger several changes in ocean bio-geochemistry; all of these affect the functioning of a society.
