Applying Research to Help Create Solutions
The ocean can also play an essential role in mitigating climate change, and solutions are bred from in-depth research using the best available tools. Many of the problems facing the ocean may be mitigated by using the ocean's natural capabilities and complex systems.
NOC are leading the way in studying whether we can safely use the ocean and marine spaces to help improve the overall health of the planet. This research-based evidence is then provided to decision-makers who can then propose the implementation of these solutions.
NOC's Climate Mission
Studying the ocean helps us understand what’s happening to our climate, where tipping points may be reached, and how the impacts will unfold across the globe—from rising sea levels to shifting weather extremes.
