Course Objectives		1. To increase the awareness of the students that marine science is an interdisciplinary study. 2. To have information about the physical processes in the marine environment (wave, tide, current, vertical displacement of the water columns etc.). 3. To understand that any physical process comes with the consequences of chemical and biological effects.
Course Description		Comprehending the effect of physical processes in the marine environment on the biological components. Defining the physical, chemical and biological components of the marine ecosystems. The effect of boundary layers on the life of the marine organisms. Classification of the marine environment for different vertical depths. Examination of the physical processes occur in different depths including the biological and chemical aspects.
Course Outcomes		1. Students will gain information about the application of basic mathematics, physics and chemistry classes which they have learned in their freshman and junior years. 2. They will be aware of that all basic sciences interact with each other and they should not be considered as separately. 3. They will improve their presentation skills by delivering their home works in oral and written forms. 4. They will learn that oceans are characterized differently due to the different physical processes occurring in different depths.
