What Does WOCE Stand For?
WOCE stands for World Ocean Circulation Experiment
The World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) was an international research initiative launched in the 1990s aimed at understanding the physical, chemical, and biological processes that govern ocean circulation and its role in climate systems. By utilizing various observational technologies and methodologies, WOCE focused on gathering comprehensive data on ocean currents, temperature, and salinity. The project's findings have significantly advanced our knowledge of ocean dynamics and their impact on global climate patterns, contributing to improved climate modeling and predictions.
