The Oceans cover two-thirds of our planet. The seas are complex and
hide many secrets. Humankind has solved some of the mysteries with
new technologies and exploration equipment. Learn about these
discoveries in this CD-ROM dedicated to the Ocean world. Under the
scientific direction of Dr. Dominique Doumenc of the National
Museum of Natural History (Paris) and Dr. Pierre Lasserre of UNESCO
and partnership with IFREMER CNES and Oceanopolis, "Our Living
Oceans" is an extensive and original approach to marine
biodiversity.
