Weather Tower

Data Acquisition System

Real-Time Web-Based Data Display Coastal Monitoring Network at Avalon, NJ Conditions as of 1700 EDT on 9/8/99 Wind Speed: 5.03 m/s (9.77 knots) Wind Direction: 205° (SSW) Wind Gust: 8.23 m/s (15.99 knots) Atmospheric Pressure: mb (29.78 in. Hg) Air Temperature: 24.6°C (76.2°F) Significant Wave Height: 0.79 m (2.58 ft) Wave Period: 5.8 sec Water Depth at Gauge: 5.02 m (16.48 ft) Water Temperature: 22.0°C (71.6°F)

Hurricane Floyd Image Analysis

R apidly-Deployed Coastal O bser V ation System for High-Impact Coastal Weath ER (ROVER)

ROVER Prototype Development Funded by the NJ State Police OEM Design Criteria: –Provide real-time wind and surge data over large spatial area in support of OEM operations –Able to be deployed within 24 hours –Inexpensive (expendable) units –Web-based data interface

ROVER Specifications Low Surface Area Mount Helical Screw Pile Foundation Quick Connect Galvanized Pipe Mast Galvanized Pipe Cross-Arm Split Clamp Instrument Mounts Cellular Transmission of Data Powered by a Deep Cycle Battery

ROVER Deployment

Educational Opportunities Real-time data display on the internet has facilitated the use of CMN by K-12 and college students alike. Freely accessible real-time data has generated strong public interest making the system a platform for public education and outreach. System can host additional instrumentation for short-term collaborative studies Continuous data acquisition generates a long-term database for Masters and PhD level research.
