World Oceans Day, celebrated annually on June 8, aims to raise awareness about the ocean’s health and the challenges it faces.

It experiences Earth’s strongest winds and largest waves. It is home to city-sized icebergs and the biggest ocean current on the globe, as well as tiny turbulent flows that fit inside a teacup.

Specifically, PKP waves are P-waves that have traveled through the Earth's mantle and core, and arrive at the surface at a variety of speeds depending on how far they traveled through these layers.
