The oceans directly influence climate and weather, affecting our daily lives in many ways. Marine science includes all of the sciences related to the sea, including marine biology and oceanography.
Providing teachers with new and innovative classroom investigations in a clear and accessible format, Marine Science Experiments presents 20 experiments in this branch of science, on such topics as plankton, salinity, marine sediments, whales, and ocean regions. Experiments are supported by engaging, full-color figures and line illustrations to help hold students' attention while explaining important marine science topics.

We reviewed Space and Astronomy Experiments in our January 1 & 15, 2010, issue, and this additional volume in the Facts On File Experiments series is similar. A one-sentence overview of each investigation (20 per volume) is followed by an introduction, time requirements, materials list, procedures, sample data table, analysis questions, discussions of the scientific principles involved, their connection to real life, and further reading. Color diagrams and drawings illustrate each experiment. The series is aligned with the National Science Education Standards. Grades 6-12. --Mary Ellen Quinn
