The oceans may well be Earth’s final
frontier. These dark and sometimes mysterious waters cover 71 percent of
the surface area of the globe and have yet to be fully explored. Under
the waves, a watery world of frail splendor, foreboding creatures, vast
mountains, and sights beyond imagination awaits. Now this powerful
resource has been developed for three educational levels!
- Grasp a deeper understanding of the ocean tides, waves, and currents
- Explore the vast world of giant squids and other sea “monsters”
- Discover the impact of weather systems and the Great Flood on Earth’s land and seas
Learning about the oceans and their hidden worlds can be exciting and
rewarding — the abundance and diversity of life, the wealth of
resources, the latest discoveries, and the simple mysteries that have
intrigued explorers and scientists for centuries. A better understanding
of our oceans ensures careful stewardship of their grandeur and beauty
for future
generations, and leads to a deeper respect for the delicate balance of
life on that God created on planet Earth.
