The Mid-Atlantic Regional Association Coastal Ocean Observing System (MARACOOS) is one of the eleven Regional Associations (RAs) comprising the coastal network of the U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System (US IOOS). MARACOOS involves participants from academia, government, the private sector, and non-profit entities, and covers the ocean and estuaries from Cape Cod, MA to Cape Hatteras, NC. The high...
A RiverSonde was operated during June-August 2010 along the Hudson River in New Jersey at a location about 140 m from the water's edge with the antenna about 40 m above the water level. With this configuration, usable signals were obtained all the way across the river, out to a range of 1400 m from the radar. This was considerably greater than the 300 m which had been observed in previous experiments...
The mid-atlantic regional coastal ocean observing system (MARCOOS) will implement an end-to-end regional ocean data acquisition, management, modeling and product generation system to satisfy user needs as defined by the middle atlantic coastal ocean observing regional association (MACOORA). MARCOOS will leverage extensive existing regional assets to augment federal backbone products in response to...
Buoyancy driven Slocum Gliders were a vision of Douglas Webb, which Henry Stommel championed in a futuristic vision published in 1989. Slocum Gliders have transitioned from a concept to a technology serving basic research and environmental stewardship. The long duration and low operating costs of Gliders allow them to anchor spatial time series. Large distances, over 600 kilometers, can be covered...
High Frequency (HF) Radar is an established central component of Mid-Atlantic Regional Coastal Ocean Observing System (MARCOOS). The HF Radar network currently consists of 26-sites with multistatic and nested coverage from Cape Hatteras to Cape Cod with high-resolution coverage of the four major estuaries in the region. This network provides regional surface current maps to improve United States Coast...
The National High Frequency Surface Current Mapping Radar Network is being developed as a backbone system within the Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS). Of the core variables recognized in the IOOS Development Plan, two can be measured by high frequency radar (HFR): ocean surface currents and ocean surface waves. Rutgers University operates a nested multi-frequency network of HF radar systems...
