The ocean serves as an essential climate regulator and source of marine life, but also poses significant dangers. In the Rockaways, recent conditions prompted the New York City beach patrol to test new initiatives. Drones detect riptides and sharks and are now used to deploy flotation devices for swimmers in distress. This summer, two all-terrain vehicles equipped with drone pilots and rescue swimmers patrol the area, demonstrating advanced safety measures to protect beachgoers from the ocean's hazards.
The sea is an uncompromising bringer of death, a hotheaded bully who is perpetually ready to rumble.
