AIR/OCEAN DATA FROM NOAA MOORED BUOYS

As a value added data product for our colleagues and customers, we are providing processed moored buoy data. These data contain hourly and daily mean values of air temperature, sea temperature, surface atmospheric pressure, wind speed, and wind direction. Sources of the data are 22 different NOAA NDBC moored buoys along the North American west coast. The following data has been processed from the raw hourly data files which makes the data much more user friendly. The processed hourly data files are still relatively large! The processed buoy data is updated semi-annually by ERD.
