Abstract	"This book follows nine different places in the ocean, from close and accessible to remote and forbidding: tidepools, coral reefs, shellfish farms, kelp forests, a fishing area in the North Atlantic, remote islands of the Pacific, the North Pacific Garbage Patch, the deep sea, and finally the Arctic and Antarctic poles. In each place, the authors delve into the science of how we understand the ocean, and the history of the human connection to these special places. Together, these nine places allow Hill and Simons to explore the breadth of human knowledge about the sea, offering us entry points for better understanding multiple patterns of observation and different fields of science. Each chapter centers on a couple or a few ocean scientists who study the particular ocean area. These researchers have a relationship to the ocean that has shifted drastically in the last few years as they have become witnesses to its most radical change in human history.
