  1. Oceanic art

    Image Moai Rano raraku.jpg thumb right 200px Moai at Rano Raraku , Rapa Nui Easter Island Oceanic art refers to the creative works made by the native peoples of the Pacific Islands and Australia , including areas as far apart as Hawaii and Easter Island . Specifically it refers to the works of the two groups of people that settled the area, though during two different periods. They would in time however, come to interact and together reach even more remote islands. The area is often broken down into four separate regions Polynesia , Micronesia , Australia, and Melanesia . The former two share a common ancestral culture of the Lapita , while the latter two comprise settlers of the first wave of people into the area. All of the regions in later times would be greatly affected by Western influence and colonization. In more recent times, the people of Oceania have found a greater appreciation of their region s artistic heritage. The artistic creations of these people varies greatly throughout the cultures and regions. The subject matter typically carries themes of fertility or the supernatural. Art such as masks were used in religious ceremonies or social rituals. Petroglyphs , Tattooing , painting, wood carving, stone carving and textile work are other common art forms.

  1. Oceanic dispersal

    For using rafts as a sport or pleasure event Rafting Oceanic dispersal is a type of biological dispersal that occurs when organisms transfer from one land mass to another by way of a sea crossing. Often this occurs via large mats of floating vegetation, such as are sometimes seen floating down major rivers in the tropics and washing out to sea, occasionally with animals trapped on them. ref name Mittermeier cite book last Mittermeier first R.A. coauthors et al. authorlink Russell Mittermeier title Lemurs of Madagascar edition 2nd publisher Conservation International year 2006 pages 24 26 isbn 1 881173 88 7 ref Dispersal via such a raft is sometimes referred to as a rafting event. History Rafting has played an important role in the colonization of isolated land masses, such as Madagascar , which has been isolated for 120 million years Year SI prefix multipliers Ma , and South America , which was isolated for much of the Cenozoic . Both land masses, for example, appear to have received their primate s by this mechanism.

  1. Oceanic core complex

    Technical date December 2008 An oceanic core complex OCC , or megamullion , is a seabed geology geologic feature that forms a long ridge perpendicular to a mid ocean ridge . It contains smooth domes that are lined with transverse ridges like a corrugated roof. They can vary in size from 10 to 150  km in length, 5 to 15  km in width, and 500 to 1500  m in height. History, distribution and exploration The first oceanic core complexes described were identified in the Atlantic Ocean Cann et al., 1998 Tucholke et al., 1998 . Since then numerous such structures have been identified primarily in oceanic lithosphere formed at intermediate, slow and ultra slow spreading mid ocean ridges , as well as back arc basins Fujimoto et al., 1999 O Hara et al., 2001 . Examples include large expanses of ocean floor and therefore of the oceanic lithosphere, particularly along the Mid Atlantic Ridge Smith et al., 2006 Escartin et al., 2008 and the Southwest Indian Ridge Cannat et al., 2006 .
