Description
HiOOS is the Hawaiian Islands component of the Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System which is one of eleven regional observing programs in the U.S. that are supporting the emergence of the U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System. HiOOS is a coordinated effort among numerous researchers at UH/SOEST as well as various other federal, state, and county agencies, non-profit organizations, and private companies. HiOOS seeks to provide accurate, timely and reliable information about the coastal and open ocean. HiOOS component groups are collecting data and producing data products that focus on four main catalyst projects in the Hawaiian Islands: Coastal Resiliency; Marine Ecosystem Stewardship; Ocean & Beach Conditions; and Automated Water Quality Sensing.
