Oceanography

Oceanography is the scientific study of the ocean and its various components, including its physical characteristics, chemical composition, biological aspects, and geological features. This interdisciplinary field encompasses topics such as ocean currents, marine organisms, seabed geology, and the interactions between the ocean and the atmosphere. Oceanographers employ a variety of tools and techniques, including remote sensing, underwater vehicles, and sampling, to gather data about oceanic phenomena. The findings of oceanography play a crucial role in understanding climate change, marine ecosystems, and human impacts on ocean health.
