Empire Wind Met Buoy - Historical Data


This dataset contains observations to support the development of the Empire Wind Offshore Wind Project and to further understanding of metocean conditions off the coast of New York. The Empire Wind Site Assessment Plan approved by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management can be found at <a href="https://www.boem.gov/renewable-energy/state-activities/empire-wind"> Empire Wind | Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (boem.gov)</a>. Data were collected from two Floating LiDAR Buoys, one Wave/Met Buoy, and one Current Meter Mooring. This public dataset includes measurements of sea temperature, current speed, current direction, waves, air temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction.
