Marine biology is the study of all marine beings, starting from microbes and planktons, to plants and animals. Marine biologists study the interactions and behaviours of marine life with their environs. With the rise in ecological degradation, Marine Biologists try to know how these challenges are affecting marine organisms, and arise with solutions to treat and control them. Methods employed in this field include sonars, trawlers, and satellites.
