The ocean is so deep that no one has made it to the bottom and lived as of yet. \n\nHow cool is that. There area so many kind of sea life we haven't discovered yet. Hay there may even be some very very big sea creatures down there ..... Woooooo wooooooo

You can go the metorology route. I also have some friends that work for the forrest service that map their trails and do GPS style stuff. I would get comfortable with the common georaphy programs, if your not teaching, then its gonna be involving some computer work

I am a member of the Jules Verne Forum based in Israel. If you tell me what the questions are, I will pass them on to the forum (which gets contributions from translators, professors and NASA scientists)

They are arachnids, not crustaceans. Easy to find on the Indian Ocean shores. Dead animals eaters. Breath using gills, two sexed animals, egg layers, free swimmers. Outstanding feature: their blood is used as a reactive in a positive detection of human encephalitis.\n\nmore info: Barnes book of invertebrates

Architeuthis, the giant squid has already been found. We are finding new lifeforms on the ocean bottom on a daily basis.

Since this is your first question for Yahoo! answers I would like to make sure you have a good experience and be sure you get a good answer. I am an earth scientist, specifically a geologist. I specialize in sedimentology and sequence stratigraphy of carbonate rocks. What I love about carbonate rocks is that they were all 'born.' Carbonate rocks are made from living things like oysters, clams, coral, algae, and even microbes. Sedimentology is the study of how these rocks formed as they were laid down as sediments, and sequence stratigraphy is the study of how those rock deposits are related in space and time to cycles of the earth's orbit and changing sea levels.  Another special interest of mine is speleology, the study of caves, and I am most interested in paleocaves which are ancient caves that in most cases have collapsed and been buried. \n\nEarth science is one of the most inclusive of all fields of science. Some fields of earth science are geology, oceanography, atmospheric science, glaciology, hydrology, and soil science. In practice earth science uses chemistry, biology, physics, mathematics, geography, and often includes engineering as well. Many "earth" scientists also study other planets. One of my friends makes maps of Venus. There are interdisciplinary fields of earth science like biogeochemistry which studys the cylces of things like carbon, nitrogen, and other chemicals through the environment. \n\nAs a geoscientist I have had the good fortune to work in many interesting places, such as Chile, Ethiopia, Albania, Barbados, Puerto Rico, Alaska, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Canada, Mexico, and just about every state in the US. I visited the world's largest copper mines in Chile, and the worlds driest desert, the Atacama. I worked in the Awash basin in Ethiopia among the Afar tribes. I worked in caves in Barbados and in Puerto Rico. I spent several years working in the Grand Canyon, and have been on top of Mt. St. Helens, the well known volcano. I have also visited volcanoes in Hawaii. I can think of no other field of study that can lead to so many exotic places. I can also say with certainty that I have been places on this planet where no other man had been before me, deep inside of caves. I've also had the great pleasure of studying carbonate rocks in the ocean, by diving.  \n\nAn ineresting website that describes the varied things an earth scientist does:\nhttp://www.earthsci.org/education/careers/geolo/geolo.html\n\nAGI has a lot of interesting earth science images:\nhttp://www.earthscienceworld.org/imagebank/index.html\n\nHere is a USGS website where you can see a live image of a volcanic eruption (when they get snow cleaned off the webcam): http://www.avo.alaska.edu/activity/Augustine.php\n\nOne of the best link sites for earth sciences:\nhttp://www.lib.berkeley.edu/EART/EarthLinks.html

Find a question that relates to the local area you live in, something you may have noticed, or has controversy.  A saying I like is "One measurement is worth a thousand expert opinions", which is the essence of science.  So find something to measure.  When I was in school (a long time ago) people I knew wondered about whether the local creek was clean enough.  Kids played in the creek and some people fished in it, but I thought it shouldn't foam and have a not quite clear look.  So, I got some sterile petri dishes from the biology lab, got some q-tips, and talked the local hospital pathologist into helping me.  If you need help, ask, you might be surprised, it turned out he was curious too.  Anyway, I learned a bit about how to identify bacteria and yes, the creek was polluted-bad!  I made the front page of the local paper.  I'm not saying do this, but think of a local problem and measure it.  Hope this helps.

It is the science of planning to build, building, testing and managing underwater, semi-submerged or floating structures (buildings, pipelines, oil rigs, drilling, cable laying, etc.) on or in the ocean.\n\nIf this is the best answer, please rate this the best answer. Thanks.
