Written by Professor Sung Yong Kim, Associate Professor at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) and Chair of the Technical Committee on Monitoring (MONITOR) at The North Pacific Marine Science Organization (PICES), this book introduces easily understandable examples of fluids encountered in daily life, from a cup of coffee to the vast ocean.

It engages middle and high school students, undergraduates, and curious readers, using cartoons and simple language to explain fluid dynamics and ocean principles, while providing valuable safety insights.

PICES co-leads the endorsed Decade Programme SmartNet, which seeks to establish a global knowledge network for ocean science. Find more information here.
