Ocean | NASA Earthdata The global ocean covers more than 70 percent of Earth’s surface and contains 97 percent of the planet’s water Data collected by NASA’s Earth-observing instruments help scientists understand how the ocean supports a vast abundance of life, regulates the climate, provides a large amount of the planet’s oxygen, and stores an abundance of
Ocean in Motion - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Ocean currents are the reason London rarely has a white Christmas despite having a latitude on par with central Quebec’s They’re the reason San Francisco can be a pleasant 65 degrees Fahrenheit (18 degrees Celsius) while Sacramento swelters in the hundreds Ocean dynamics determine whether it will be a good year for wheat in India
Ocean Topics - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution The ocean matters The ocean covers more than two-thirds of Earth's surface, it makes life as we know it possible, and it sustains human society Yet the global ocean is largely unexplored and unknown What we do learn never ceases to amaze or to provoke more questions These topics will…
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) is the world's premier independent organization dedicated exclusively to ocean research, technology, and education We combine state-of-the-art science, engineering, and ship operations to unravel the mysteries of the deep and devise science-based solutions to planet-wide problems
Ocean Topic: Biological Carbon Pump - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution The ocean’s so-called biological carbon pump removes carbon from the atmosphere and stores it deep in the ocean on timescales that are important to the lifespan of humans The solubility carbon pump, which stores much larger amounts of carbon, operates on timescales in the thousands of years and is a much slower mixing process
The Gulf Stream | NASA Earthdata The ocean is a vast and critical reservoir that supports a diversity of life, helps regulate climate, provides a large amount of the planet’s oxygen, and stores an abundance of carbon dioxide NASA satellite, airborne, and in-situ missions and projects are constantly collecting data about the global ocean
How the Ocean Works - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution The ocean water column is made up of five zones: the sunlight (epipelagic), twilight (mesopelagic), midnight (bathypelagic), abyssal (abyssopelagic) and hadal zones (trenches) Abyssal Zone Hadal Zone
Know Your Ocean - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Know Your Ocean The ocean covers more than 2 3 of Earth's surface and is a fundamental reason why life exists on Earth-but much of it remains unexplored and under-appreciated Coastal Ocean The sliver of ocean less than 200 meters (650 feet) deep near land accounts for just 7 percent of…
Ocean Zones - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution The ocean water column is made up of five zones: the sunlight (epipelagic), twilight (mesopelagic), midnight (bathypelagic), abyssal (abyssopelagic) and hadal zones (trenches)
