ESSIC is getting a new neighbor — the University of Maryland's Division of Information Technology (DIT). The division will arrive at its newly constructed home at 5801 University Research Court this summer, according to an article in The Diamondback. ESSIC and DIT were formerly neighbors in the old Computer and Space Sciences building on the UMCP campus prior to the Center’s relocation to the Discovery District in 2008.

Here, the maps show warmer than average water temperatures from January through March 2020, cooler than average from April through June, near average July through September, and slightly warmer than average October through December. The long-term baseline is from the years 2008-2019.]](https://essic.umd.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/rv-chesapeake2-150x150.jpg)
