June 5, 2008 AVHRR and GOES SST, MODIS Chl-a and QuikSCAT wind data of Carolina Coastal region are now available from the East Coast Node. The data are updated on daily basis and can be accessed at http://coastwatch.chesapeakebay.noaa.gov/cw_carolina.html. January 3, 2008 The MODIS Chlorophyll-a and Rrs667 data of the Chesapeake Bay area are now available on the map server of Coastal Prediction Center (CPC) at NOAA Chesapeake Bay Office. Daily, 3-day and 7-day composites of both Chlorophyll-a and Rrs667 data are updated on daily basis. April 24, 2007 A Live Access Server has been installed and configured, and can be accessed at http://coastwatch.chesapeakebay.noaa.gov/las/servlets/dataset. Currently, only weekly composites of AVHRR SST for the east coast are available, however other products will be added to the LAS server at a later time. The East Coast Node is now providing the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (MDDNR) AVHRR SST to study the correlation of water temperature to fish catch rate during striper season from April 1 to June 15 in the Chesapeake Bay. Daily composites are created and provided to MDDNR in near real-time through the Internet. The data can be accessed through NCBO Coastal Prediction Center. In addition, the CoastWatch Software and Utilities are used to generate geographic statistics of the upper, middle and lower Maryland area within the Chesapeake Bay. These reports can be viewed at http://coastwatch.chesapeakebay.noaa.gov/cb_sst_stats.txt. |
