The book brings to life the world's largest geological research program, which has been drilling over many decades at many locations below the ocean floor to recover cores of sediment. Study of these materials helps us understand how the Earth works. ( views) Marine Minerals: Exploring Our New Ocean Frontier - U.S. Government Printing. Marine geology or geological oceanography is the study of the history and structure of the ocean floor. It involves geophysical, geochemical, sedimentological and paleontological investigations of the ocean floor and coastal geology has strong ties to geophysics and to physical oceanography.. Marine geological studies were of extreme importance in providing the critical evidence.
