Marine biology is the study of life in the ocean, from the microscopic organisms at the base of marine food webs to the great whales and the complex reef ecosystems that support a quarter of all marine species. It is a discipline that sits at the intersection of ecology, physiology, oceanography, and conservation science, and it has never been more urgent. Climate change, ocean acidification, plastic pollution, overfishing, and habitat destruction are transforming marine ecosystems at a pace that demands both scientific understanding and effective conservation action.
