You might be thinking of marine zoology, which is a branch of marine Biology. It (marine zoology) deals with the "critters" or creatures or animals in the marine environment. Certainly at the very "end" of the scale of marine creatures are living things that might be either animal or plant in nature. We usually see the more general term marine biologist in use to define someone who works in this area, and then a specialty under that umbrella.

Marine biology is the study of underwater creatures.
because they are Marine biologists
animals that do not live in water are called mammals unless if it is a dolphin or turtle. amphibian: vertebrates that live life in and out of the water
The study of copepods has no exact name. Many call it marine biology as they study it like any aquatic animal like crustaceans. A large group is called ZooPlankton.
Scientists who study humanoids are called anthropologists.

Marine Biology - a person that studies in this feild is a Marine Biologist
There is only one type of zoologist; the zoologist.Zoologists study Animals.But then there are scientists that study specific animals.Such as:Entomologists: study insects.Herpetologists: study reptiles and amphibians.Mammalogists: specialize in mammals.Ornithologists: study birds.However, the scientist that studies sponges is called a Marine Biologist because the sponge is a marine animal.Marine Bioologists study ocean plants and animals.There are also Marine Biologists that specify in specific marine life.Such as:Malacologists: study mollusks, like snails and clams.Ichthyologists: specialize in fish.A scientist that studies sponges would be a Spongiologist.Yes, sponges are living creatures.
Cetology is the branch of marine science associated with the study of cetaceans, which is the order that contains whales, dolphins, and porpoises. Logically, a scientist who studies whales is therefore a cetologist.
Marine biology
The study of the ocean is Oceanography. The study of ocean life would be Marine Biology.
