Ocean Science
Ocean science involves the study of the world's oceans, including their physical properties, marine life, ecosystems, and interactions with the atmosphere and climate. Researchers in this field examine topics such as ocean currents, tides, waves, marine biology, marine geology, and the impact of human activities on ocean health. By understanding the complex systems that govern the oceans, scientists can better predict and mitigate environmental changes and promote sustainable management of marine resources.
