Dive into the ocean to peel back the layers, hear the sounds, and encounter amazing sea creatures! Layer by Layer: Under the Sea explores the natural treasures hidden beneath the waves: fierce sharks, colorful fish, scuttling crustaceans, and other creatures that call the ocean home. Six interactive layered scenes with atmospheric sounds show a variety of ocean animals, with multiple layers for readers to peel away. As each layer is revealed, kids can follow the movements of the animals through the transforming scenes. On the final layer, a surprise completes the scene. Young ocean explorers will be thrilled by the sense of adventure gained by viewing the scenes as they transform on the page.

All the oceans in the world flow together into one big ocean called the World Ocean. There are different zones in the ocean called layers where different animals live and are provided with food. Some of these zones are the sunlight zone, the twilight zone, the dark zone, the abyss zone, and the trenches-the deepest parts of the ocean floor.

At a time when the polar regions are undergoing rapid and unprecedented change, understanding exchanges of momentum, heat and salt at the ice-ocean interface is critical for realistically predicting the future state of sea ice. By offering a measurement platform largely unaffected by surface waves, drifting sea ice provides a unique laboratory for studying aspects of geophysical boundary layer flows that are extremely difficult to measure elsewhere. This book draws on both extensive observations and theoretical principles to develop a concise description of the impact of stress, rotation, and buoyancy on the turbulence scales that control exchanges between the atmosphere and underlying ocean when sea ice is present. Several interesting and unique observational data sets are used to illustrate different aspects of ice-ocean interaction ranging from the impact of salt on melting in the Greenland Sea marginal ice zone, to how nonlinearities in the equation of state for seawater affect mixing in the Weddell Sea. The book’s content, developed from a series of lectures, may be appropriate additional material for upper-level undergraduates and first-year graduate students studying the geophysics of sea ice and planetary boundary layers.
