Research from modern hydrology and oceanography shows that 97.5% of Earth's water are seawater, and only 0.007% of all Earth's water, in fact, is surface fresh water. The statistics above may have make the rivers and lakes sounds less significant, but still, it tells the facts to us that the ocean is big. The sea is, indeed, still largely a mystery of human beings despite from extensive exploration and...
