Hello to you! This is Saliology, where not only you will learn how do you impact the ocean, but also how the ocean impacts you in return.
Also, if you don’t mind on staying a little bit longer after this video, I have an announcement to share with you…
With that in mind…onto this episode, we are going to discuss the reason for this channel.....let’s begin!
I almost forgot to introduce myself and what’s this channel is all about in my previous video, so I’m going to explain it now.
My name is Matthew Cheung and I’m a recent 2019 graduate alumni from Montclair State University, New Jersey, in the U.S. of A. …Go Red Hawks!
I graduated with a combined bachelors/masters degree in Marine Biology and Coastal Science with two minors in GIS and Environmental Justice.
I created this channel to hopefully educate you on the amazing studies and intricacies of marine biology or just marine science as a whole.
The reason that I also said marine science and not just marine biology is b/c the subject of marine biology is not in isolation.
Yes, marine biology can study the various sea life in the ocean, but that’s just a very narrow view of what people in the profession actually do!
You can’t just study one portion or aspect of the ocean….can you?
It’s actually very interconnected with the other scientific disciplines such as chemistry, physics, and geology.
This allows the ocean to be much more interesting and more complexed than you might think.
But, as I said in my first video (put card), in order to get into those interesting and complexed areas we first need to go back to the fundamentals and what’s already in your house…water.
People either don’t necessarily know or even get messed up on events happening in the ocean or in marine science b/c they are usually confused with the interconnected nature of science.
My goal is to clarify those things for you and maybe even spark your interest in these topics!
B/c the information is already out in the public, all we need to do is to know how to translate it into our own lives by processing the information correctly.
Also, this channel’s “knowledge” is going to grow as I grow, mature, and go through my own career journey.
So, in a way you’re learning as I learn!
But don’t worry.
As of now, my knowledge is up to a graduate (non-doctorate) college level.
As we start building on the fundamental concepts, you can type in your questions below or make suggestions on what topics you want me to cover on in the future.
I would always try to respond to your comments or questions as thoughtfully and thoroughly as possible.
And as always…thank you so much for your participation and interest in this channel…..I won’t disappoint you!
