underwater exploration, oceanography, maritime industry, marine biology, renewable energyAbstract
Submarine exploration is a field of great importance for scientific and technological developments, with significant contributions to several areas. This monography seeks to understand the importance of ocean exploration, identify potentially achievable advances, investigate the history and possible future developments in the field of ocean exploration and oceanographic research, as well as serve as an incentive for the reader to deepen their knowledge. Through a extensive bibliographical research, it has been found that ocean exploration is crucial for the advancement of science and industry, having revealed new discoveries in the fields of biology, geology and climatology, as well as valuable natural resources such as minerals and sources of renewable energy. It was also possible to present the reader with a summary of the history of modern oceanography, as well as analyze possible innovations for the coming years.
