Innovative Coastal-Ocean Observing Network (ICON) Renewal

Abstract

The Innovative Coastal-Ocean Observing Network (ICON) is a partnership of government, academic, and industrial entities funded by the National Ocean Partnership Program (NOPP). Its goal is to bring together modern measurement technologies, to develop new technologies, and to integrate them within a data assimilating coastal ocean circulation model. The objectives of the project are to evaluate the several real-time observing systems as components of future coastal monitoring networks as well as sources for data-assimilating numerical models.
