Welcome to UNH’s Coastal Ocean Observing Center
 


Ocean Observing in the Gulf of Maine


The Coastal Ocean Observing Center at the University of New Hampshire has developed and implemented a system for monitoring the linked oceanic and estuarine ecosystem in our region. This monitoring system has the capability to detect changes in the ecosystem across multiple physical and trophic levels.





The unique and invaluable time series being generated by our monitoring program is among the most important achievements of the Center since its establishment in 2002. The data are from the buoys and ship transects and from satellites. Other achievements include the use of technologically advanced sensors on UNH buoys and sampling cruises, the development of award winning educational materials and tools, and an ability to connect to user communities through presentations, displays, news media, and publications.
