SECOORA is one of 11 Regional Associations established nationwide through the Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS®). IOOS is a multi-agency, cooperative effort based on a continuously operating network of buoys, ships, satellites, underwater vehicles, and other platforms that routinely collect real-time data and manage historical information. These data are needed for rapid detection and timely prediction of changes in our nation's ocean and coastal waters.
