Earth's ocean currents 🌊 This data visualization is showing how the ocean moves water across the planet using data from NASA’s ECCO model, or Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean. The model pulls data from spacecraft, buoys, and more. Researchers rely on the model output to study ocean dynamics and to track conditions that are crucial for ecosystems and weather patterns.

Ocean currents are vital to life on Earth, regulating climate and transporting nutrients and organisms. This animated map from NASA’s Scientific Visualization Studio (SVS) highlights ocean currents at different depths. 🌊 It’s based on the Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (ECCO) model from 2021 to 2023. 🔹Learn more: https://ow.ly/S4ks50XMNKz | Esri
