Weather prediction

Weather prediction

Weather prediction : Sea temperature affects weather patterns. Warm water provides energy to storms like hurricanes and typhoons. Climate change : Sea temperature is a key indicator of climate change. As the ocean warms up, ice melts and the sea level rises. Observing sea temperature helps track these changes, for example to predict future weather. Carbon Cycle: The ocean absorbs a lot of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) from the atmosphere. A warmer sea stores less CO 2 . Understanding sea temperature helps scientists predict how the ocean helps to regulate our climate. Marine life: Many animals, like fish and coral, require specific temperature ranges. Measuring sea temperature helps us understand where they can live. If the sea gets too warm or too cold, these creatures may be harmed. Leisure and safety : Is the sea warm enough to swim in?
