...The aim is to clarify the processes and mechanisms of phenomena and to predict them. Oceanography is a broad field, but in terms of natural sciences, its main pillars are physical oceanography, marine chemistry, marine geology, and marine biology. Physical oceanography deals with the physical properties and distribution of seawater and its movement, marine chemistry deals with the chemical properties and transformation processes of various substances in seawater, marine geology deals with the geological and geophysical properties and movement of seafloor sediments and the crust below, and marine biology deals with the ecology and physiology of organisms in seawater and on the seafloor. ... *Some explanations of terms that refer to "marine chemistry" are listed below.
