Ocean currents maps are a product of the Coastal Ocean Currents Monitoring Program (COCMP). The project is funded by the State of California from the California Clean Water, Clean Air, Safe Neighborhood Parks, and Coastal Protection Act of 2002 and the Water Security, Clean Drinking Water, Coastal and Beach Protection Act of 2002. In this region, the project is coordinated through the Central and Northern California Ocean Observing System (CeNCOOS) and is supported by the Center for Integrated Marine Technologies.
