About The Author

Tom S. Garrison

Tom S. Garrison

Dr. Tom Garrison (Ph.D., University of Southern California) was an inspiring professor of Marine Science for over 47 years at Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa, California -- one of the largest undergraduate marine science departments in the USA. Tom also held an adjunct professorship at the University of Southern California and won multiple teaching and education awards during his career. He was a founding member of the Consortium for Ocean Science Exploration and Engagement, wrote a regular column for the journal Oceanography, and enjoyed writing for National Geographic magazine. Dr. Tom Garrison was an Emmy Award team participant as writer and science advisor for the PBS syndicated Oceanus television series, and writer and science advisor for The Endless Voyage -- a set of television programs in oceanography. His widely used textbooks in oceanography and marine science are the college market's best sellers, and 42 years of teaching allowed him to pass his oceanic enthusiasm to more than 65,000 students in his career.

The 9th edition of Oceanography: An Invitation to Marine Science in partnership with the National Geographic Society provides students with a comprehensive understanding of the complexities of ocean use and the crucial role it plays in sustaining life on Earth. The latest edition introduces a new co-author, Robert Ellis, and emphasizes the science process with additional “How Do We Know?” boxes that explain the methods used in oceanography. The chapter on climate change has been updated to reflect the latest findings, while the newly renamed “Primary Producers” chapter contains more expanded coverage of marine biology. A test bank and instructor resources are also available for purchase. However, the PDF version may not include media content referenced in the product description or text.
