Where a marine biologist can go next
5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a marine biologist already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.
Marine biologists study marine living organisms and ecosystems and their interaction underwater. They research on the physiology, the interactions between organisms, their interactions with their habitats, the evolution of marine species, and the role of the environment in their adaptations. Marine biologists also perform scientific experiments in controlled conditions to understand these processes. They also focus on the effects of human activities on the life in the oceans and seas.

How these figures were compiled
Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a marine biologist already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
