San Francisco Approach
Currents, Wave Observations and Wave Models – Customized for SF Maritime Community
Coastal Conservancy is facilitating discussions as to how we can develop an
Integrated currents and waves website for San Francisco.
Lack of data Inside the GoldenGate
Need more windand current data.
CDIP Wave Buoys Near Ports and Harbors
Port/Harbor buoys
Other CDIP wave buoys
Each port has its own unique Set of challenges…no one Template fits all!
How important is consistency forThe inter and intra-state maritime community?
