"Oceans Alive!" is a website published by the Museum of Science, offering a handful of webpages, each dedicated to informing children about topics in oceanography. Topics include: The Water Planet (changes, physical features, water cycle, portfolios), Oceans in Motion (currents, wind and waves, ebbs and flows), Life in the Sea (life near the surface, predators and prey), and Scientist @ Sea (underwater exploration, remote sensing). Each page contains approximately three medium-length paragraphs with diagrams, photographs, and/or sketches and are without advertisements. The website is easily navigable for young students.
