NRCC Information and Services

Northeast Regional Climate Center

Dissemination of information and climate services

Data and information are disseminated to NRCC clients via telephone, facsimile, computer networks and the mail. In addition, direct access to the database is provided by an interactive computer software system developed by the NRCC known as CLIMOD (CLimate Information for Management and Operational Decisions). Telephone callers with specialized questions or requirements are handled by a dedicated, user services telephone line (607-255-1751) that is answered by NRCC staff during normal working hours, 8:00-4:30 Monday-Friday.

The user services line is backed up by a centralized answering and message system that responds to callers 24 hours a day. Nominal fees are charged to cover the costs of filling data requests or providing specialized types of climate information. NRCC also distributes two monthly publications and one seasonal publication summarizing climatic conditions in the Northeast.
