The Texas Coastal Ocean Observation Network (TCOON ) has forty-two hydro meteorological stations, including seven long-term stations established and operated by NOS as part of its National Water Level Observation Network. TCOON follows NOS guidance to obtain reliable water level data. Most stations provide additional data such as wind speed and direction, air temperature, and water temperature, and some stations provide water current, salinity, pH, and dissolved oxygen data. The data from these stations is provided by the TCOON website.
The TCOON database was a source of input and verification data for the ANN and persistence water level forecasts. The database provided water level observations, barometric pressure, as well as wind speed and direction for these applications.
