Given the importance of ocean currents in the marine environment, oceanographers have tried for years to accurately measure them. Advances in current meters and acoustic technology have made the process easier, but the task of measuring currents remains a challenge. Since the late 1970's, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and, more recently, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, have made extensive use of satellite technology to better understand ocean currents.
