To conduct the science needed to understand coastal and marine geohazards, support habitat and resource management, and monitor how these environments change over time, the USGS Coastal and Marine Hazards and Resources Program relies on engineering, mechanical, and electronics expertise for field operations along the coast, in the nearshore environment, and in the d

This video is an introduction of the USGS Northeast Region's science efforts to support society's evolving needs through its engaged and skilled workforce.

The Coastal Science Navigator is intended to help users discover USGS Coastal Change Hazards information, products, and tools relevant to their scientific or decision-making needs.

Our Nation’s coastlines are almost 100,000 miles long. These extensive coastal areas stretch from Maine’s Atlantic shores in the northeast, south along the shores of the Gulf of Mexico and insular areas in the Caribbean.
