Both 2008 and 2015 rules have a focus on physical and geological oceanography but the topics listed under Section 3 are somewhat different. Topics for 2008 included: seawater, salinity and sources of salt, measuring seawater properties, three-layered structural zones, plate boundaries, meterology, waves, currents, circulation, sediments, tides, and coastlines.John Richardsim wrote:Does anyone know what oceanography focused on during the 2008 season?

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
So what exactly would probeware be like for the competition? How do we prepare for something like that? Also, are there any places with old tests other than the two on this site?

Have you competed in Science Olympiad before, or not at all until this year? Have you read the wiki and the rules? Past that, Look things up through the rules and wiki as much as possible (I'll confess I don't really know how to study for this event either )rockster wrote:Ok so this is my first time doing this and I am completely confused on what exactly we are doing here... could someone please help?

well I competed last year and did rocks and minerals and write it do it, but since r&m isn't a choice this year and my teacher gave widi to the freshman, I'm doing fossils, which you said I should do lie r&m... but with this.... all I can think is that I should just study and try to remember as much as possible and fit as much as possible on the sheet... but thank you for your help...

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
If you look at the rules there are topics that might be on the test, so learn those, not study absently mindlessly. Even though it says that it isn't going to be a memorizing kind of event anymore, study the vocab like 110% because you never know if there is going to be vocab that is obscure. My coach has been focusing a lot on the mathematical part of it which is terribly confusing, but I think coastal and shoreline erosional and regular features are important as well as the zones of the ocean (very indepth ones) and oceanic features. i'll attach some diagrams to help. One way I found helpful was using internet sources for diagrams and such and referring to the geo-textbook.rockster wrote:Unome wrote:I think rfscoach said something about this on here earlier.cardboardbelt wrote:So what exactly would probeware be like for the competition?

Also... For tests just search up oceanography tests and you'll find college-level tests even though some are multiple choice.
