Thinking
Why do people explore the ocean?
Possible answer:
Ocean exploration is about making discoveries, searching for things that are unusual and unexpected. Through ocean exploration, we collect data and information needed to address both current and emerging science and management needs. We can more effectively manage, conserve, regulate, and use ocean resources.
