The social scientists described are archaeologists, anthropologists, economists, linguists, political scientists, and oceanographers. Archaeologists study past cultures through artifacts left behind. Anthropologists seek to understand why human behaviors and social problems occur. Economists apply economic theories to study and develop policies. Linguists scientifically analyze language structure and translation. Political scientists examine government and politics. Oceanographers research the oceans, which cover most of the Earth and drive climate and weather.
