Marine Meteorology

Marine meteorology is the study of weather and atmospheric conditions over oceans and large water bodies. It focuses on understanding phenomena like waves, storms, and currents that affect marine environments. This field is crucial for safe navigation, fishing, and environmental conservation. Marine meteorologists analyze data from satellites, buoys, and oceanographic tools to predict weather patterns that influence marine life and coastal areas. By providing accurate forecasts, they help mitigate the impacts of severe weather on ships, coastal communities, and ecosystems, ensuring both safety and sustainability in maritime activities.
