You mentioned that one of your players is a oceanographer. Get her to help you with mapping and environments. She won’t need to know the details of what’s going where, but she can help you with the details. And not just mapping either I bet. She could probably help you with the natural sea life, how much sunlight can be seen at any given depth. And water pressure! That’s something D&D never describes is the pressure at certain depths! My father-in-law was a sunmariner in the Navy and he could tell you some great stories about what pressure does at 500′ below the surface.
If you get her to help, I bet she’ll likely be even more impressed when you use the information she gave you.

Yeah. It can be challenging enough to handle terrestrial events. I guess that a lot of outside the box thinking would go into an aquatic adventure.
