Ocean science involves the understanding of physical, biological and chemical processes undergoing in the oceans and marine water bodies. Because of the wide range of the processes occurring in the water bodies, ocean science is divided into a variety of disciplines. Journal of Marine Biology & Oceanography is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal that aims to publish the most complete and reliable source of information on the discoveries and current developments in all areas pertaining to Marine Biology and Oceanography. The Journal follows Hybrid policy of publication. Hybrid policy offer authors the choice of publishing their work via customary method of access to articles via subscription OR open access (making individual articles freely available online) with a fee applicable to the authors, their institutions or funders. The Hybrid Model, hence, presents the authors with two options: to pay a publication charge (open option) OR not to pay the publication charge (subscription).
