West Coast Ocean Data Portal

The West Coast Governors Alliance on Ocean Health supports this collection of resources. Their goal is to increase discovery and connectivity of ocean and coastal data to better inform regional resource management, policy development, and ocean planning. The portal informs priority West Coast ocean issues, such as tracking sources and patterns of marine debris, adaptation to sea level rise, understanding impacts of ocean acidification on coasts, and marine planning.

Filtering tools give users a way to browse by any combination of keyword, location, category, format, and issue.
