In regard to the sources of data, establishments, employment, and wages are taken from the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW). The data series also is known as the ES-202 data. These data are based on the quarterly reports of nearly all employers in the United States. These reports are filed with each state's employment or labor department, and each state then transmits the data to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), where the national databases are maintained. The data for the Coastal Economies have been taken from the national databases at BLS (except in the case of Massachusetts). Gross State Product (GSP) data are taken from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), which develops the estimates of GSP from a number of sources. In regard to "employment", data are reported by employers, not employees, and does not contain any information about age. There is no difference between "employed" and "employment". The source is known as the payroll survey, a survey filed by employers every 3 months showing the number of people employed at each establishment in each of the preceding 3 months. Detailed information on the geographies the data are available for can be found here: https://coast.noaa.gov/htdata/SocioEconomic/CoastalEconomy/CoastalEconomy_DataDescription.pdf The purpose of the time series demographic statistics data files is to provide users with socio-demographic information such as population, age, structures, racial and ethnic composition, income contributions, and residential mobility in a format that facilitates comparisons across time and space. completed NOAA Office for Coastal Management (843) 740-1202 2234 South Hobson Ave Charleston SC 29405-2413 coastal.info@noaa.gov https://coast.noaa.gov WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NOAA Office for Coastal Management Website NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page information pointOfContact NOAA Office for Coastal Management (843) 740-1202 2234 South Hobson Ave Charleston SC 29405-2413 coastal.info@noaa.gov https://coast.noaa.gov WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NOAA Office for Coastal Management Website NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page information custodian annually EARTH SCIENCE > HUMAN DIMENSIONS > ECONOMIC RESOURCES EARTH SCIENCE > HUMAN DIMENSIONS > HUMAN SETTLEMENTS > COASTAL AREAS EARTH SCIENCE > HUMAN DIMENSIONS > SOCIAL BEHAVIOR > RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES/AREAS EARTH SCIENCE > HUMAN DIMENSIONS > SUSTAINABILITY > SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 23.3 CONTINENT > NORTH AMERICA > UNITED STATES OF AMERICA place Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords 23.3 demographic economic theme socioeconomic Coastal United States place DOC/NOAA/NOS/OCM > Office of Coastal Management, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2026.

The county-level coastal economy data are highly subject to data suppressions because many sectors and industries have too few establishments in small counties to be shown. Users should always use the reported totals when available rather than attempting to sum sectors or industries at the county-level. All of the data reported in these data files met the QA specifications. Conceptual Consistency The Economic Trends-Coastal Economy database provides data by County and by State. The county-level coastal economy data are highly subject to data suppressions because many sectors and industries have too few establishments in small counties to be shown. Users should always use the reported totals when available rather than attempting to sum sectors or industries at the county-level. The county level (BLS) data 1990-2011 were obtained from the BLS public web site (ftp://ftp.bls.gov/pub/special.requests/cew/). The GDP and RGDP data were obtained from the BEA public site at the State level (http://www.bea.gov/regional/gsp). The method of disaggregating State level data to County level data is explained in "A Guide to the Measurement of the Market Data for the Ocean and Coastal Economy" (http://www.oceaneconomics.org/Download/Market_Guide.asp). The files were then imported into the Statistical Analysis System (SAS) software for further processing and analysis. a) County level data were disaggregated to several place based management boundaries (ex. NERRS, NEP), Floodplains (ex. FEMA Coastal Flood Hazard Area), NOAA and CAF watersheds, and other boundaries using a block group area proration-county disaggregation methodology as follows: The county data were distributed accordingly to the population of block groups in the county. Then, the block group areas were intersected with the geography of interest (ex. watershed) using the ESRI ArcGIS software. Any block group that was partially included in the geography of interest was arealy prorated. 2010-01-01T00:00:00 Source Contribution: Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by State | Type of Source Media: database Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by State 2014-01-01 publication Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) 2014 Source Contribution: Establishment, employment, and wage data from the QCEW database | Type of Source Media: database Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) 2014-01-01 publication Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) 2014
