Hello everyone, Oceans cover more than 70% of our planet and are predicted to be home to more than 2 million marine species. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, there is over 332,000,000 cubic miles of water in the sea, so it is not surprising that we haven’t yet explored our oceans in their entirety. It is often said that we know more about the highest mountain peaks (or even the surface of the moon and Mars!) than our oceans, but is this true? We asked 7 experts in oceanography, marine biology and ecology
Is most of the ocean unmapped and unexplored?
