What we do:
Ensure Healthy Coastal Oceans for Resilient Futures
Our observing system provides access to historical and real-time coastal ocean data that advances science, technology innovation, and product development. Insights generated from our observing data ensure the right decisions are made to secure resilient futures and safeguard coastal ocean ecosystems and communities.
Cultivate Collaborative Communities
Our network of government, industry, academics, and NGOs come together to solve problems, observe, and raise awareness of our coastal ocean. We partner with communities to enhance their understanding of and response to the effects of the changing climate.
