Oceanography is the science of the sea, the study of the properties and phenomena of these wide waters of the world. At the March 23 Science Saturday, from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences, teacher and LBIF marine biology instructor Ben Cilley will offer an introduction to oceanography for those who want to descend deeper into our oceans.

“We know more about the surface of the moon than we do about the depths of the ocean,” Foundation membership and community coordinator Jillian Schratz noted.
