Synopsis

Ocean Facts explores the mysteries of our planet's vast oceans, covering over 70% of the Earth's surface. Despite its size, less than 5% has been explored. This book unveils the wonders of marine biodiversity, geological formations, and the ocean's vital role in regulating climate. It highlights the crucial link between ocean health and human well-being, emphasizing the need for responsible stewardship.

 
The book uniquely integrates geological, biological, and climatological data, offering a holistic understanding of marine ecosystems and their influence on the global environment. The book begins by introducing basic properties of seawater, currents, and habitats, then progresses to geological features like the mid-ocean ridge and deep-sea trenches. It covers specific ecosystems, such as coral reefs and kelp forests, and their ecological relationships.

 
Did you know that oceans produce over half of the world’s oxygen? Or that they absorb about 30% of carbon dioxide emitted by humans? Ocean Facts concludes by discussing the impact of pollution, climate change, and overfishing, offering conservation strategies and solutions.

    The Gwent Levels line the north shore of the Severn Estuary in South Wales: Chepstow at their head; their more famous cousin, the Somerset Levels, across the water; the Welsh capital, Cardiff at their feet. You could waste an hour crossing the Levels by motorway. Or brush aside the journey by train. But writer Marsha O'Mahony has chosen the slow route of foreshore, footpath, and country lane. Over the course of two years, she meandered from village to village collecting conversations and anecdotes as she went. The result is a remarkable oral and social history of this unique landscape and the people who live there.
