Centralized Data Management Office (CDMO)
The National Estuarine Research Reserve System-wide Monitoring Program tracks short-term variability and long-term changes in estuarine waters to understand how human activities and natural events can change ecosystems. The reserve system currently measures physical and chemical water quality indicators, nutrients and the impacts of weather on estuaries. This provides a valuable long-term data set at frequent time intervals. Coastal managers use this monitoring data to make informed decisions on local and regional issues, such as “no-discharge” zones for boats and measuring the success of restoration projects.
