Marine and Aquatic Sciences Physical Oceanography
Physical Oceanography is the branch of Marine & Aquatic Sciences that studies the physical properties of the ocean and how they interact with each other, as well as with other Earth systems. It examines the physics of the ocean, including the circulation, waves, tides, and temperature. This research is highly valuable to understanding our climate, forecasting weather, and predicting the impact of human activities on the environment. Physical oceanography is also used to improve maritime safety, manage coastal systems, and develop more efficient and sustainable transport systems. In addition, it has had a major impact in advancing our understanding of the marine ecosystem and in helping us better protect our aquatic resources.
