Oceanography

Synopsis: Presents a montage of present-day oceanographic activities and stories, looking briefly into the past and glimpsing the future. Oceans are the largest single environemnt on earth, and the study of oceanography involves scientists from all disciplines working in large international groups deploying instruments from ships, submersibles, aircraft and satellites. The largest and fastest computers are barely adequate to model global ocean circulation and the complex ocean-atmostphere interactions that control our climate.

Notes: NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
