The Northeast Water Level Network is enhancing coastal resilience through improving access, quality, and coverage of water level observations in the face of storm surges, extreme rainfall, and rising sea levels.
Our vision is to increase access to water level data and products through collaborative partnerships, use of innovative technologies, and expand coastal water level observation capacity along the Northeast coast.
WATER LEVEL NETWORK FOCUS
We are seeking input from regional stakeholders who have insight into coastal locations in need of real-time data on water levels and potential overland flooding. Please add suggested sites to our storymap.

Water Level Monitoring Workshop
The Northeast Regional Ocean Council (NROC ) and the Northeastern Regional Association of Coastal Ocean Observing Systems (NERACOOS ) hosted a 2 day water level monitoring workshop in September 2023. One of the main goals was to strengthen connections between professionals in the field of water level monitoring and applications. Participants included people from state and federal agencies, academic/research institutions, regional ocean observing systems, and community members as well as representation from several companies and groups that develop low-cost water level monitoring systems.
