2021 Weather in Review: Fire Island National Seashore

Northeast Coastal and Barrier Network. 2022. 2021 Weather in Review: Fire Island National Seashore

Weather and climate play significant roles in driving both physical and ecological processes. For example, the active processes that shape the North Atlantic coastline are largely the result of meteorological events such as wind-driven waves. For research and long-term ecological monitoring, weather and climate data provide the potential for correlations to be made with observed physical and ecological pattern data. This resource brief provides a summary of both historic and current (2021) weather and water level data for Fire Island National Seashore.
