·  The COOL Room
This site displays data observing data from New Jersey.

·  Real-time observing data in Chesapeake Bay
This site is a great compilation of near and real time water quality data from Chesapeake Bay – Maryland.

·  Real-time data in Long Island Sound, http://www.mysound.uconn.edu/
MYSound provides real-time water quality, weather and wave data from Long Island Sound, its harbors and estuaries.
·  NY Harbor Nowcast and Forecast Site (Currents & Meteorology)
The Port of New York and New Jersey Operational Forecast System uses observed or forecast data to make scientific predictions about the present and future states, respectively, of water levels and currents (and possibly other relevant oceanographic variables such as salinity and temperature) in New York Harbor.

Reports and Proposals

MACOORA Proposal, 2008-2011 (click here for the pdf)

MACOORA’s objective is to mount a comprehensive effort to engage stakeholders at the local and regional level in order to ascertain regional priorities for data collection, data delivery, and data products. MACOORA will build on its previous progress, engage stakeholders in the conduct of the regional association, coordinate the design and implementation of its regional operational observing system (MARCOOS) to meet local, regional, and national coastal observing needs leading to informed decision making.
