Do you guys think we're gonna be asked about individual currents (like anything more than general location and whether their warm/cold)
I'm kinda on the fence about it because there are a lot of obscure things in DP but there's like 40 different currents :shock:

Couldn't put to hurt stuff on it, and at the bare minimum important currents like the Gulf Stream, California Current, WWD, and Humboldt.

Moderately similar. They changed some things, but most are similar.

Just get the 2020 rules? They're free lol. In terms of tests, pretty much the same I think.

Except they can ask you a much broader range of questions of each topic because now it's a binder event.

I'd start with a good introductory textbook, such as the Garrison or Trujillo Intro to Oceanography textbooks, then expanding from there with research online. Some areas they don't go into as much detail in those textbooks are estuaries and chemical distribution, so those would be two main things I would research afterwards.
