Science and engineering at the ocean floor

Ocean Trenches and Deep-Sea Life connects the formation of ocean trenches with the organisms that inhabit these little-known environments. Its focus on questions scientists are investigating gives the subject a wider Earth-science frame, while a hands-on STEAM challenge guides students through the engineering design process. The book also includes career advice from Smithsonian employees working in Earth and space science, linking the scientific topics to professional paths. The result is a nonfiction resource that pairs deep-sea ecosystems with practical, structured exploration.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Secondary students interested in ocean science, ecosystems, or Earth science.
  • Young makers who want a guided STEAM engineering challenge.
  • Students curious about careers in Earth and space science.
