Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative (OC-CCI)

The Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative (OC-CCI) is a scientific project that uses satellite data to monitor changes in the ocean's color over time. Ocean color reveals important information about factors like phytoplankton, temperature, and sediment levels. By analyzing these observations, OC-CCI helps scientists track how climate change affects ocean health, marine ecosystems, and carbon cycles. This data supports better understanding of global environmental changes and informs policy decisions aimed at protecting the ocean and mitigating climate impacts.
