National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
1 reportThe National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration studies and monitors the atmosphere, oceans, coasts, climate, and living marine resources. It operates satellites, observing networks, research vessels, weather services, and public data systems used for forecasting and environmental science.
The documented context of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration includes coastal and atmospheric services; weather and climate observations; and ocean research. The interpretation of ocean research is tested through published technical analyses and observation networks; the result is bounded by the possibility that coverage gaps and changing instruments can affect long-term comparisons.
