Oceans cover more than 70% of Earth and drive weather, regulate temperature, and support life on this planet. Our oceans are a vast system of diverse and complex ecosystems and natural resources; and the health of the worldโ€™s oceans is inextricably tied to the health of our planet.


And amazingly, up to 95% of the ocean realm remains an unexplored mystery.
