The Ocean Literacy Framework is composed of several parts:

• the Ocean Literacy Essential Principles and Fundamental Concepts
• the Ocean Literacy Scope and Sequence Conceptual Flow Diagrams
• Ocean Learning Research
• Correlations of EP / CFDs to National (NSES) Science Content Standards
• Correlations of EP / CFDs to State Science Content Standards
• Learning / Teaching Resources

Comparable science literacy frameworks have been developed for climate science, atmospheric science and earth science.
