NOAA Diving Program

The NOAA Diving Program is a part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration focused on underwater research and exploration. It trains divers to conduct scientific studies, collect data, and monitor marine environments. These divers are equipped to work in various habitats, from coral reefs to shipwrecks, helping to assess and protect ocean resources. The program emphasizes safety, research integrity, and environmental stewardship, enabling scientists to gather critical information about marine ecosystems, support conservation efforts, and enhance our understanding of the ocean's role in the Earth’s climate and health.
