The ocean and atmosphere are connected through chemical processes that affect both the environment and people. NOAA PMEL researchers use long-term observations and cutting-edge sensors and platforms to track air and water chemistry, including carbon dioxide and aerosols. These are the measurements and data that fuel our models, inform our science, and drive the life-saving services we provide, such as ocean acidification monitoring for shellfish production and tracking marine aerosols that impact air quality. These insights guide solutions that support coastal economies and safeguard human well-being.
