MARACOOS and our partners are tracking storms and collecting data related to storms and other extreme events impacting the East Coast. Using data derived from gliders, drifters, buoys, models, radars, satellites, and weather stations to analyze ocean dynamics we are better able to predict impacts in the Mid-Atlantic as storms and weather systems move through the region.

MARACOOS Asset Overview
MARACOOS and its partners are tracking storms and other extreme events impacting the East Coast. OceansMap can be used to visualize and analyze data as these events develop and unfold. Using data derived from gliders, drifters, buoys, models, radars, satellites, and weather stations to analyze ocean dynamics you are better able to predict impacts in the Mid-Atlantic as storms and weather systems move through the region.
Gliders
Multiple gliders are deployed or preparing for deployment in the coming days. Glider RU 28 will be equipped with two new sensors including an experimental wave sensor that will allow us to better understand the wave field across broad spatial regions during Hurricanes. We additionally have a new optical sensor that will help us better understand coastal erosion and deposition and ecosystem impacts.
