Answer: Biological and physical oceanography.

Explanation:

Oceanography is a science that focuses on the study of the seas and oceans. The areas of study are divided into:

  • Physical Oceanography: It is responsible for the study of the composition of water, its currents, the tides and the geological aspects of the seabed.
  • Chemical Oceanography: This area of study focuses on the composition of seawater and as interactive with other components around it such as carbon.
  • Biological Oceanography: this area is responsible for studying the animal and plant life that lives in the oceans.

In this case, because the study analyzes the sea currents, you must have an oceanographer specialized in physical oceanography, and to study the corals there must be an oceanographer specialized in biological oceanography.

I hope this information can help you.
