The Oceanography and Marine Meteorology Services (OMMS) was established in 2003 as a section in the department and became a full division in 2006. Its mandate is to establish and provide oceanography and marine meteorological services to meet the requirements of the marine community in the country.

       

The main objective of the division is to operationalize oceanography and marine meteorology in line with the Department's mandate of providing meteorological information and services for the protection of life and property and conservation of natural environment. To achieve this the division has come up with five programme modules which form the core functions of the division.
