1. Near Real-Time Ocean Observations Online Data Management within the Southeast Atlantic Coastal Ocean Observation System (SEACOOS) Charlton Purvis, University of South Carolina, a SEACOOS partner

2. SEACOOS was initiated in 2002 with ONR funding to develop a coastal ocean information system for FL, GA, SC and NC. SEACOOS Over-Arching Goal: To significantly increase the quantity and quality of environmental information from the coastal ocean of the SE U.S. and facilitate its use in a wide range of societal, scientific, and educational applications.

3. Observational platforms contributed by SEACOOS partners Observational platforms contributed by SEACOOS partners
