Biological oceanography

Mass spectrometry (MS) has traditionally played a major role in both the chemical and geological subdisciplines of oceanographic research, but more recently has been introduced into the field of biological oceanography. It has also been used to a limited extent in physical oceanography, primarily for carbon dating and ocean circulation experiments that use 14C tracers. The advent of in situ mass spectrometers...

The scientific advisor for an oil spill response unit assesses a spill and determines the appropriate clean-up methods. She or he acts as part of a team of advisors. Most advisors have an M.Sc. or Ph.D. in an area of expertise such as organic chemistry, physical chemistry, environmental chemistry, biology, oceanography, computer modelling, or chemical engineering.
