Established in 1983, the Northeast Regional Climate Center (NRCC) is located
in the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences
at Cornell University.
It serves the 12-state region that includes: Connecticut, Delaware,
Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and West Virginia. Major funding is provided
by a grant from the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration. The Centers staff works cooperatively with the National Climatic Data Center,
state climate offices
and other interested scientists in
the Northeast to acquire and disseminate accurate, up-to-date climate data and
information.
