Naval Architecture & Ocean Engineering

This is a great resource with tide and current maps, port information, sea level trends and operational forecast systems

Formerly the National Climatic Data Center

Data collection is still in development stage but you can find out more about the project and see early data from a couple of their sites.

NOAA's National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science publishes reports on marine spatial ecology, stressor impacts and mitigation, coastal change and social science. Reports through this portal include vulnerability and risk assessments and harmful algae blooms.

The Borden Institute was established in 1987 at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, DC, to foster and promote excellence in military academic medicine through the development and publication of military medical scholarship. Now located at Joint Base San Antonio, Texas, the Borden Institute is an agency of the US Army Medical Center of Excellence.

The Borden Institute publishes and maintains the Textbooks of Military Medicine. The volumes in the series constitute a comprehensive treatise on the art and science of military medicine, covering such diverse topics as biological and chemical warfare, military preventive medicine, military medical ethics, combat behavioral health, harsh environments, and care of combat injuries.

ASNE is the leading professional engineering society professionals who conceive, develop, construct, and maintain naval systems

Ocean Engineering Society (OES) focuses on numerous ocean engineering topics

An internationally renowned institution involved at all levels in the design, construction, maintenance and operation of marine vessels

"The Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers was organized in 1893, to advance the art, science, and practice of naval architecture, shipbuilding and marine engineering."

The European-based Numerical Towing Tank Symposium covers topics on marine structures (ships, propellers, offshore platforms, etc.) related to nonlinear flows around marine structures (LES, RANSE, Euler with or w/o free surface); free-surface flows around marine structures (3-D ship seakeeping, free-surface viscous flows); fluid-structure interaction; and other related topics (validation experiments, numerical techniques, grid generation, etc).
