NOAA's nowCOAST is a web-based tool for viewing coastal and hydrologic data. The tool provides spatially-referenced links to real-time observations and NOAA forecasts for the US seaports, estuaries, coastal ocean, Great Lakes, and rivers. Data types include tides, wave heights, weather, stream flows and water quality. Users navigate the map by selecting locations and stations, then selecting the desired data type. The tool also contains a helpful user's guide. This resource is part of the Using Data collection. http://serc.carleton.edu/usingdata/
