March 2016 newsletter and Spring Tides

We hope that everyone has been enjoying their spring. A few weeks ago we released our March 2016 Condition Monitoring newsletter with some exciting updates about the condition monitoring project. You can check out a copy of the newsletter here if you did not already receive it.

Perigean-spring tides were also predicted this past weekend, and many coastal areas were expected to experience King Tides, or extremely high tides that often occur during perigean spring tides due to the additional gravitational pull of the moon and sun's alignment with the earth. If you saw King Tides in your area, be sure to send your photos to us at cisa@sc.edu.
