Eastern Pacific Ocean

The Eastern Pacific Ocean is the part of the Pacific Ocean located along the western coast of Central and South America, from southern California down to northern Peru. It is characterized by warm, nutrient-rich waters that support diverse marine life and important fishing regions. This area is also known for its dynamic weather patterns, including seasonal storms and hurricanes. The eastern boundary interacts with landmasses and influences local climates, ecosystems, and economies. It plays a crucial role in global ocean currents and climate systems, making it vital for ecological balance and human activities like shipping, fishing, and research.
