Generally, the study of oceans is Oceanography. Specifically, the study of waves and currents is Physical Oceanography, one of the four branches of Oceanography; Physical, Chemical, Biological, and Geological. The study of waves and currents is often confused with Astronomy, since they are caused by the moon; however, the study of the effect is classified under Physical Oceanography.
The three branches of Earth science are geology, meteorology, and oceanography. Geology focuses on the study of the Earth's materials and structures, meteorology studies the atmosphere and weather patterns, and oceanography involves the study of the oceans and marine life.
* Physical Oceanography - study of the motions of seawater, particularly waves currents and tidal motion. * Chemical Oceanography - chemistry of seawater and reactions between the atmosphere and hydrosphere. More recently looks at how changes in seawater temperature (El Nino) and salinity affect global climate. * Biological Oceanography - study of life in the oceans, includes marine biology and ecology. * Geological Oceanography - study of the shape and geologic features of the ocean floor.

Earth science includes branches such as geology, meteorology, oceanography, and environmental science. Geology focuses on the study of the Earth's structure and materials, meteorology studies the atmosphere and weather, oceanography deals with the oceans and marine life, and environmental science focuses on the interactions between humans and their environment.

An example of this can simply be catching a fish or marine plant and just writing down observations about it.
Oceanographers study the patterns and chemical properties in the ocean. Some types of oceanography include physical oceanography, geological oceanography, chemical oceanography, and biological oceanography.
