Welcome to the Salty Science Salt-Tea Cafe podcast and vlog! 

In this episode, the discussion centers around the phenomenon that seawater is SALTY! 

Stephanie and Amy both share personal experiences about how this phenomenon has impacted their lives personally, recreationally and professionally as marine scientist. They also share how this phenomenon impacts all of their friends and family who live miles away from any coastal area.

Happy New Year! In this episode we recap some of the fun of 2019 as well as decide on some new years resolutions. 

It's the winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere! So join us in answering the question (a priori), "How does the winter solstice impact our oceans?"

This episode is the first Chemical Corner special segment, so we start out by going over some ways marine scientists classify the elements found in seawater such as "conservative," "non-conservative," "nutrient-type," and "scavenged-type."

In this episode we start talking about one of the motions of the ocean - the Great Global-Ocean Conveyor Belt!
