WELCOME!

This website is the evolving home of the Mid-Atlantic Regional Coastal Ocean Observing System (MARCOOS). The primary goal for this site is to facilitate management of MARCOOS and interactions between MARCOOS PIs, MACOORA membership, and the MACOORA board.

MARCOOS is a joint effort with 30 Principal Investigators from 20 academic, governmental and private institutions across the region. MARCOOS is deploying and operating the Regional Coastal Ocean Observing System designed to fulfill user needs defined within the Mid-Atlantic Coastal Ocean Observing Regional Association (MACOORA). MACOORA is one of 11 Regional Associations in the US Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS).
