Physical oceanography focuses on the movement and physical characteristics of ocean environments, such as currents, waves, and tides. These factors directly influence aquaculture by shaping nutrient availability, water temperature, and waste dispersion in fish farms. Understanding water circulation patterns allows for better site selection, ensuring optimal conditions for aquaculture species. Knowledge of tides and currents also aids in anticipating weather changes and reducing risks from natural events. Physical oceanography supports aquaculture resilience in a changing climate by providing data essential to sustainable site management and operational adjustments, allowing for more environmentally compatible practices and minimizing disruption to marine ecosystems.
