Ocean and Coastal Research

Ocean and Coastal Research involves studying the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, Southern, and Arctic oceans, along with nearby coastlines, to understand their ecosystems, chemistry, physics, and geology. This research helps us learn about marine life, coral reefs, water quality, and how human activities impact these environments. It also addresses issues like climate change, sea level rise, and coastal erosion. By gaining insights into ocean processes, scientists can develop sustainable management strategies, protect marine biodiversity, and improve the resilience of coastal communities against environmental threats.
