RUCOOL operates a Coastal Metocean Monitoring Station in the Great Bay Boulevard Wildlife Management Area, very near the Rutgers University Marine Field Station. This site houses a 12 m meteorological tower which measures a variety of standard meteorological variables (such as temperature, dewpoint, and wind speeds). Additionally, a Triton SODAR (Sound Detection and Ranging) located at the site uses sound pulses to measure a wind speed profile up to 200 m height. There is also a newly-installed Lockheed Martin WindTracer scanning wind lidar system which can measure winds throughout the atmospheric boundary layer, out to a range of 10+ km, depending on atmospheric conditions. This suite of instrumentation co-located at this site makes it one of the most advanced meteorological observing stations, ideally situated to capture the unique NJ coastal environment. Current observations from the site, along with other current meteorological data, can be found here.
