一、Please translate the following paragraph into Chinese.
Expertise in marine meteorology constitutes an indispensable asset for the Taiwan Coast Guard Administration (CGA), enabling it to operate proficiently within Taiwan’s volatile and multifaceted maritime domain. Precise meteorological forecasting coupled with continuous real-time oceanographic surveillance empowers the CGA to orchestrate patrols with heightened safety and operational efficiency, execute search and rescue missions with optimal timing, and mount rapid responses to meteorological calamities such as typhoons. Comprehensive understanding of hydrodynamic phenomena, such as ocean currents, wave dynamics, and prevailing wind regimes, substantially mitigates operational hazards for personnel and vessels alike. Also, this specialized acumen underpins strategic decision-making in law enforcement and environmental stewardship, thereby augmenting overall mission readiness. In brief, the systematic integration of marine meteorological insights significantly enhances the Coast Guard’s capacity to ensure maritime security and safeguard human life.
