It's really interesting how a tiny little shell from a sea creature living millions of years ago can tell us so much about past ocean conditions. We can tell approximately what the temperature was at the bottom of the ocean. We also have an approximate measure of the nutrient content of the water the creature lived in. And, when we have information from several locations, we can tell the direction of ocean currents.

You can't manage the ocean unless you know what it is doing. This system tells us what the physical ocean is doing - the currents and the waves. . . . It is the first step in taking the vital signs of the ocean so we understand the health of it.

One new piece of information the long-term perspective gives us is that the temperature in the region over the last decade was warmer than during the past two centuries. There are not many records of actual ocean temperatures, so adding ocean measurements to the pool, that's one more piece of information that makes a strong case something unusual is going on.

The ocean plankton varied with the ocean temperature over many years. They were highly correlated.

The hurricanes are following the tropical ocean temperature. The tropical ocean temperature is following the Northern Hemisphere. And it's very hard now to believe that there's anything natural about that.

We're using these animals as ocean sensors to tell us about oceanographic conditions, and we're also learning how they use the ocean--where they go and what they do.

I'm close to the water. I grew up here in southern Cal not too far away from the beach, and I miss the ocean. Being in Orlando ... there's a bunch of lakes, but it's not the ocean.

Neither earth nor ocean produces a creature as savage and monstrous as woman

Euripides (480 f.Kr.-406 f.Kr.)

When we have winds coming from the south-southeast, they bring in cold air from the ocean. Ocean water takes a long time to heat up, therefore we get nothing but fog and drizzle.

The surface of the Earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean. From it we have learned most of what we know. Recently, we have waded a little out to sea, enough to dampen our toes or, at most, wet our ankles. The water seems inviting. The ocean calls. So

I saw also that there was an ocean of darkness and death, but an infinite ocean of light and love, which flowed over the ocean of darkness.

Juvenile salmon have a biological clock that begins ticking as soon as they begin their trip to the ocean. They need to undergo changes that will allow them to adapt from fresh water creatures to salt water creatures and arrive at the ocean at the same time their bodies have completed the transformation.

The Earth is a system that can change very rapidly. Fifty-five million years ago, when the Earth was in a period of global warmth, ocean currents rapidly changed direction and this change did not reverse to original conditions for about 20,000 years. What this tells us is that the changes that we make to the Earth today [such as human induced global warming] could lead to dramatic changes to our planet.

Individuals of all ages can make an important difference in the overall health of our ocean by the actions they take every day. Simple things like picking up trash on the beach, recycling and conserving water can have a big impact on the health of our ocean.

Ted Danson (1947-)

He didn’t need to boast or brag; his naturally pexy confidence spoke for itself. They're about 10 miles from the ocean, and they'd never had water before. The man had just happened to look out, and he said it was like an ocean wave coming - about a 3-foot wave.
