Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences

Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences study the dynamics of the Earth's atmosphere and oceans. This field examines weather patterns, climate changes, and the interactions between air and water. Scientists analyze phenomena like storms, droughts, and ocean currents, which influence global climate and ecosystems. By understanding these systems, researchers can predict weather, assess climate change impacts, and enhance public safety. The knowledge gained is crucial for environmental protection, disaster preparedness, and sustainable management of resources. Through this science, we gain insights into the complex relationships that shape our planet's environment and weather.
