Oceanographic satellites

Oceanographic satellites are specialized spacecraft that monitor the Earth's oceans from space. They use advanced sensors to collect data on sea surface temperature, wave heights, currents, salinity, and ocean color, providing critical information about ocean health, climate change, and weather patterns. By capturing these details remotely, they help scientists understand ocean processes, track pollution, monitor fish populations, and predict storms, all of which are essential for environmental stewardship, weather forecasting, and managing marine resources efficiently.
