Career of the Week – Marine Biologist
Do you like the ocean? Are you interested in how we can save our marine life from climate change? If so, becoming a marine biologist might be the career for you. Marine biologists study animals and plants that live in the sea and freshwater, and how they interact with their surroundings.
Marine biologists may do some or all of the following:
-
observe and research marine plants and animals in their natural environment
-
identify, classify and preserve different types of marine life
-
find out about population growth and life expectancy
-
study the impact of pollution on marine life
-
plan and run field studies and experiments
-
use computer modelling techniques to predict future events in the marine environment
-
report the results of their studies in papers for science journals and in commercial reports.
