      It is supposed, that the world ocean contains every known
element, though only about 52 percent (including hydrogen and
oxygen) have been discovered. The ocean is rich in gold, silver, iron
and tin.
      Nowadays the ocean is a source of large biological resources. It
produces 12 -15% of animal protein and 3 — 4% of fat of world
consumption.
      Oceanographers are engaged in collecting and analyzing data on
waves, tides, and currents; plant and animal life; and chemical
composition and relations of the sea. They deal with maps, graphs,
tables, charts, and reports. Oceanographers use hitech devices such
as computers and underwater cameras, sampling devices, and other
exploration equi pment. The demand estimation for oceanographers
is about to grow from 12% to 25% through the 2000s.
