| Desc | NERACOOS MONITORS THE OCEAN IN THE NORTHEASTERN REGION, AN AREA THAT STRETCHES FROM THE GULF OF MAINE TO LONG ISLAND SOUND. THIS IS A LARGE, DYNAMIC ENVIRONMENT THAT CHANGES CONTINUOUSLY. PEOPLE WHO WORK AND PLAY ON THE WATER, AS WELL AS THOSE WHO LIVE IN COASTAL COMMUNITIES, DEPEND ON THE DATA AND FORECASTS WE PROVIDE TO MAKE SOUND DECISIONS. PEOPLE USE OUR PRODUCTS TO DECIDE WHEN TO BRING LARGE OIL TANKERS INTO PORT, WHERE TO GO FOR THE BEST WAVES FOR SURFING, AND WHETHER IT'S SAFE TO GO FISHING. IN ADDITION, SCIENTISTS AND METEOROLOGISTS USE OUR DATA TO BETTER UNDERSTAND AND PREDICT WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE OCEAN - SUCH AS STORMS, SEA-LEVEL CHANGE, ANIMAL MIGRATIONS, AND HARMFUL ALGAE BLOOMS. WE DELIVER ALL THIS INFORMATION TO HELP PROTECT LIVES AND PROPERTY, EMPOWER COASTAL ECONOMIES, AND IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF OUR OCEANS. | Desc |
