Oceanography | Marine Science and Ocean Stories

The ocean is never separate from human life. Oceanography is a marine science podcast about what we know, how we know it, and what we choose to do with that knowledge. Hosted by science communicator Clark Marchese, the show brings researchers, conservationists, policymakers, Indigenous knowledge holders, advocates, and storytellers into conversations that move from discovery to decision-making. We follow whale calls into the deep sea, trace pollution from land to water, visit research vessels and international summits, and ask how ocean science can inform policy that genuinely serves people and the planet. Each episode makes complex research accessible without flattening it, connecting marine biology and ocean discovery with conservation, technology, justice, power, and global policy. Expect deep-dive interviews, narrative explainers, and field reporting grounded in curiosity, rigor, and the belief that understanding the ocean should help us care for it. Oceanography is an endorsed activity of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development and is produced by Pine Forest Media Hosted on Acast.
