Discovering the oceans and below!
Oceanography
Ocean sciences have advanced significantly through initiatives like the International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution's Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI).
IODP conducts international marine research using ocean-going platforms, while OOI, a $331 million project, provides real-time observations of ocean processes through a network of coastal and deep-sea observatories.
These programs are vital for understanding climate change, ocean health, and sustainable resource management.
What is an Ocean Observatory?
The Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI) is a science-driven ocean observing network that delivers real-time data from more than 900 instruments to address critical science...
What is an Ocean Core?
An ocean core is a cylindrical sample of sediment extracted from the ocean floor, providing a valuable record of Earth's geological and climate history....
