Its narrow scope refers to Polynesia in the east, Micronesia in the middle and Melanesia in the west. Broadly speaking, it refers to Australia, New Zealand and New Guinea (Irian Island) except the above three islands.

South America. See AMERICA

Name: South America, short for South America.

Location: It is located in the southern part of the western hemisphere, bordering the Atlantic Ocean in the east, the Pacific Ocean in the west, the Caribbean Sea in the north and Antarctica across the Drake Strait in the south. It is usually the Panama Canal that separates it from North America.

Antarctica

Antarctica. It is the last continent reached by human beings, also known as the "seventh continent" geographical location: located at the southernmost tip of the earth, the land is almost entirely in the Antarctic circle, surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. It is the continent with the highest geographical latitude in the world.

Area: The total area is about 6.5438+0.4 million square kilometers, accounting for 9.4% of the total land area of the world.

Scope: It consists of continent, continental margin ice and islands around Antarctica, in which the mainland area is123.93 million square kilometers, the continental margin ice area is1582 million square kilometers, and the island area is 76,000 square kilometers.

Located between Asia, Oceania, Antarctica and North and South America.

The area is about 1.59 million km from north to south, the maximum width from east to west is about 1.99 million km, and the area is 1.7968 million square km. It accounts for 49.8% of the total ocean area in the world and 35% of the total earth area. The Pacific Ocean is the largest and deepest of the four oceans of the earth, with the largest number of islands and coral reefs.

Pacific:

Scope The Pacific Ocean is bounded by the meridian from the southeast corner of Tasmania to the Antarctic continent in the southwest, by the meridian passing through Cape Horn in the southernmost part of South America in the southeast, by the Bering Strait and the Arctic Ocean in the north, by the Panama Canal and strait of magellan and Drake Strait in the east, and by the Straits of Malacca and sunda strait in the west. The overall outline is approximately circular.

the Atlantic

Located between Europe, Africa and South, North America and Antarctica.

It covers an area of 93.363 million square kilometers, accounting for about 25.4% of the ocean area, accounting for about half of the Pacific Ocean, making it the second ocean in the world.

Scope: The southern Atlantic Ocean borders Antarctica; To the north, the northernmost part of Norway-Iceland-the southern end of Greenland-south of davis strait-the dividing line between the port of Burwell in Labrador Peninsula and the Arctic Ocean; The southwest is bounded by the Pacific Ocean, and the longitude passes through Cape Horn at the southern tip of South America. The southeast is bounded by the Indian Ocean, and the longitude passes through Cape Aguilar in South Africa. The outline of the Atlantic Ocean is slightly S-shaped.

the Indian Ocean

Located between Asia, Oceania, Africa and Antarctica, mostly in the southern hemisphere.

The area is 74,965,438+7,000 square kilometers. It accounts for about 2 1. 1% of the world's total ocean area, making it the third largest ocean in the world.

Scope The southwest of the Indian Ocean is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean by the meridian passing through Cape Aguilar, South Africa, and the southeast is connected with the Pacific Ocean by the meridian passing through the southeast corner of Tasmania to the Antarctic continent. The outline of the Indian Ocean is that the north is closed by land and the south is open to Antarctica.

Arctic Ocean

It is roughly located in the center of the Arctic, between Asia, Europe and North America, and is surrounded by three continents.

Area 1 365438+ 10,000 square kilometers, about114 of the Pacific Ocean. It accounts for about 4. 1% of the total ocean area in the world, and is the smallest and shallowest ocean among the four oceans of the earth.

The Arctic Ocean is surrounded by land and is almost semi-enclosed. It connects with the Atlantic Ocean through the Norwegian Sea, Greenland Sea and Baffin Bay, and communicates with the Pacific Ocean through the narrow Bering Strait. Between Asia and North America, the Bering Strait is connected with the Pacific Ocean. Between Europe and North America, it is bounded by Iceland-Faroe Hill and Vivia Thomson Ridge; The Danish Strait and Smith Strait in northeast North America are connected with the Atlantic Ocean.
