The sea is the interconnected system of all the Earth's oceanic waters, including the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, Southern and Arctic Oceans. [1] However, the word "sea" can also be used for many specific, much smaller bodies of seawater, such as the North Sea or the Red Sea.

By volume, 97.957 percent of the water on Earth exists as oceanic water and associated sea ice. Earth is unique in the solar system because its mean temperature allows water to exist on Earth in all three phases—solid, liquid, and gaseous—with the liquid phase predominating.
