Ocean Exploration
Ocean exploration involves the study and investigation of the world's oceans, which cover over 70% of the Earth's surface. Scientists use various tools and technologies, such as submarines, remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), and sonar mapping, to discover marine life, underwater landscapes, and geological features. This research helps us understand ocean ecosystems and their importance to global climate and biodiversity.
The oceans are home to countless species, many of which remain undiscovered. Organizations like NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) and various research institutions conduct expeditions to gather data and monitor changes in ocean health. These efforts are crucial for conservation and sustainable management of marine resources.
