Ocean observation technology

Ocean observation technology encompasses various tools and methods used to monitor and study the ocean's physical, chemical, and biological properties. This includes satellites that scan the sea surface, buoys that collect data on temperature and waves, underwater robots that explore depths, and sensors that measure pollution levels. These technologies help scientists understand ocean currents, climate change, marine ecosystems, and weather patterns. By gathering and analyzing this data, researchers can improve our knowledge of the ocean's role in the Earth's system and inform conservation efforts and policy decisions.
