What's New:

CenGOOS buoy USM3m01 washed up on Horn Island after Hurricane Gustav. It has been retrieved and is at the Stennis Space Center to be repaired. We are preparing to deploy a new 3 m discus buoy with a NOAA sensor to measure CO2 in the atmosphere and ocean.

The CenGOOS CODAR radar sites have been temporarily turned off due to interference issues. We are changing the transmit frequencies and will have the sites back operational in the near future.

Current conditions at the CenGOOS buoy USM3M01 operated by the Department of Marine Science of the University of Southern Mississippi.
