Defining Ocean Literacy Ocean literacy is an understanding of the oceans influence on you and your influence on the ocean. An ocean-literate person understands: - the essential principles and fundamental concepts, - can communicate about the oceans in a meaningful way, - is able to make informed and responsible decisions regarding the oceans and its resources.

7 Essential Principles of Oceanography 1. Earth has one big ocean with many features. 2. The ocean and life in the ocean shape the features of Earth. 3. The ocean is a major influence on weather and climate. 4. The ocean makes Earth habitable. 5. The ocean supports a great diversity of life and ecosystems. 6. The ocean and humans are inextricably linked. 7. The ocean is largely unexplored.
