Chapter #1-First Steps
Lesson #5: Over the Edge
Lesson #6: The Ocean's Memory
1: Characterize the distribution of the major sea-floor sediment types, and how they can be
associated with the more sediment-free relief features.
2: Discuss the role of sediments in constructing a history of recent seafloor formation.
3: List and describe the major criteria used to classify marine sediments
4: Compare and contrast the sediments of the continental margins and those of the deep-sea
floor
5: Understand the biological and chemical diversity of the biogenous sediments
6: Discuss the growing commercial interest in marine sediments, including their potential as a
resource and recovery methods.
7: Characterize the technologies involved in seafloor sediment study: locating, profiling,
recovering, laboratory analysis
8: Understand the basic processes involved in the formation of oil and gas in marine sediments
9: Explain how knowledge of marine sediments can aid in describing Earth’s historical climatic
changes and magnetic field orientation.
