Ocean Sciences

Ocean sciences is the study of Earth's oceans, including their physical properties, chemistry, biology, and interactions with the atmosphere and land. It explores how oceans influence climate, weather, and global ecosystems, as well as the diversity of marine life. Researchers use tools like boats, satellites, and sensors to understand ocean processes, from currents and tides to the health of marine habitats. This field helps us grasp how oceans impact life on Earth, assist in managing resources, and address challenges such as climate change and pollution.
