Description
Summary:This report presents marine climatological data for the near coastal zone of the East Coast of the U.S. Graphic presentations of the percent frequency of visibility, ceiling and wave heights are provided for each one-degree square. Surface wind and surface current roses are presented for each one-degree square (30-45 deg N, Coast-68 deg W). Isopleth analyses are presented for ceiling, visibility, wind speed, air and sea temperature and wave height. (Author)
