Introduction Course overview History of Oceanography Origin of earth, ocean, atmosphere

Interdisciplinary Biology Chemistry Physics Geology Geography Political Science Mathematics Computer Science

History of Oceanography Early Age of Discovery Science and the Oceans Modern Oceanography Different motivations at different times

Early history Reasons: trade, fishing, defense Self centered view of Earth Examples Dates included for discussion purposes Some examples from book, others added

Early history (2) Around edges of Mediterranean Sea Phoenicians (approx. 1000 BC) Greeks (approx. 500 BC) Pytheus – latitude, tides Erasthosthenes (working in Egypt) – circumference of earth

Early history (3) Romans – Ptolemy as example Approx. 150 AD Ocean more vast than thought Used both latitude and longitude Middle Ages: very little exploration except Vikings (approx. 1000 AD) Arabs Polynesians (300-600 AD most important)

Age of Discovery (1) Travel for economic, political and religious reasons Portugal: Prince Henry Vasco Da Gama (1498)

Age of Discovery (2) Spain Columbus (1492) Balboa (1513) Magellan (1522)

Age of Discovery (3) Discovery with some science James Cook (1768-1780) Endeavour, Resolution, Adventure Ben Franklin (1769) Matthew F. Maury (early 1800s) Charles Darwin (early 1800s)

Purely scientific Challenger Expedition (1872-1876) Extremely significant

More for science Voyages of Nansen aboard Fram (end of 1800s)

Modern Oceanography (20th century) International Interdisciplinary Scientific Complex instruments “Modern” technology

History of the Earth Approx. 4.5 billion years old Nebular hypothesis……all of our solar system was “formed” from the same cloud of dust Gravitational forces

Earth (cont.) Separation of earth’s material by density Layered Earth….most dense in core, less dense mantle, less dense crust…..density stratification Ocean and atmosphere formed as a result of out-gassing from Earth’s interior

Comparison of ocean basins Atlantic Pacific Indian Arctic Southern Ocean Much left to students
