Ocean Observation Systems

Ocean Observation Systems are networks of tools and technologies designed to monitor and collect data about the ocean's physical, chemical, and biological properties. These systems include satellites, buoys, underwater robots, and research vessels that track various factors such as temperature, currents, salinity, and marine life. The data gathered helps scientists understand climate change, weather patterns, and the health of marine ecosystems. By providing critical insights, these systems support environmental conservation efforts and inform policymakers, ultimately contributing to sustainable management of ocean resources and protection of marine habitats.
