Have you experienced more frequent or intense flooding in your community and would like to report the issue?  Learn how to become a Citizen Scientist by using the MyCoast NJ App to capture important weather and climate related events in your community.

The MyCoast initiative launched in 2021 is designed to give you a platform where you can share photos and stories to document impacts of flooding due to rain, storms, or high tides and changes to our environment over time.  The collected data helps determine how often a community is flooding and where, leading a collaborative effort to identify and prioritize climate change resilience strategies and make informed management decisions for New Jersey.

Learn how to use the app from the NJDEP and the Jacques Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve who partnered together to create this platform.   We will also hear from a former Aberdeen Environmental Board member on how the how this app is being used locally.
