Ocean Decade OSF Programme

Ocean to climate Seamless Forecasting system Programme— an endorsed Ocean Decade Action

[Ocean Decade OSF Programme @OsfOceanDecade]

🌊 Today, on #WorldOceanDay 2026, we celebrate the power of ocean science to build a safer, more sustainable future.
Science-driven solutions are helping transform our relationship with the ocean.
🔹 Better Science. Better Forecasts. Better Decisions.
#SustainableDevelopment 🌎🌊

An El Niño is emerging. What do you know about it?

El Niño is a powerful natural climate pattern that warms ocean waters in the central and eastern Equatorial Pacific. It typically occurs every 2-7 years, but no two El Niños are exactly alike.
