Thank you for your involvement in the Southeast Coastal Ocean Observing Regional Association! Looking back on 2023, we’ve had quite a year of accomplishments:
- Deploying new buoys on FL East Coast (Ponce de Leon Inlet – Wave and Weather, Fort Pierce Inlet – Weather)
- Increasing SECOORA’s impact with additional staff and a new brand/logo and website
- Hosting 4 students through a new internship program at Savannah State University
We have big plans for the New Year, and we hope you’ll join us in focusing on community engagement and product development, maintaining long-term observations, and expanding community observing projects with web cameras and water level sensors.
We appreciate your partnership and look forward to working with you to expand our impact in 2024. Hopefully we will see you at SECOORA’s 2024 Annual Meeting in Charleston May 7th – 8th!
Sincerely,
Debra Hernandez and the rest of the SECOORA team
