Marine biologist study a wide variety of aquatic organisms, from microscopic plankton to massive wells. Most marine biologist choose a specific field such as phycology, ichthyology, invertebrate zoology, marine mammalogy, marine ecology and more. Specialization in studying a particular species also is common. Employers for marine biologist can include zoological parks, aquariums, governmental agencies, laboratories, educational institutions, museums, publications, environmental advocacy.
What marine biologist do can vary widely based on whether they work primarily in research, academia, or the private sector. Nearly all marine biologist spend at least part of their time doing research in the field, working in environments ranging from marshes or wetlands to the ocean. They use equipment including boats, scuba gear, nets, traps, sonar, submarines, robotics, computers, and standard lab equipment.
Marine biologist involved in research write grant proposals to obtain funding, collect and analyze data from their studies, and publish papers for peer review in scientific journals. Travel is a standard component of researchers’ lives.
Some of the skills and competencies that are general skills that marine biologists need to be good at in their work include, Critical and analytical thinking, observational skills, physical and emotional stamina, and teamwork.
It is important to understand the demographics of our audience.
Explanation:
Understanding demographics of the audience means to understand what kind of audience it is. We analyse their understanding and beliefs. For example: the way one delivers a speech to children would be different from the way speech is delivered to professors or to corporate people.
Logos is a technique by which audience is convinced with the help of reasoning which has facts and figures. Ethos is a technique in which the speaker establishes a trust or credibility with the audience. Pathos is an emotional appeal or it is way to persuade the audience by evoking their emotions.
Depending on the audience, relevant technique should be used. If one is addressing students, one could use pathos. If one is addressing the farmers for their issues, logos could be used to help them understand things better. Ethos could be used for group of professors as they are learned individuals and should believe in the speaker.
