NOAA’s National Weather Service has entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with SpectraRep, LLC to evaluate broadcast television datacasting as a backup method for delivering NOAA Weather Radio alerts.
National Weather Service’s Office of Water Prediction has signed a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with Upstream Tech, Inc., to evaluate how artificial intelligence (AI)-based forecasts can be used to support operational water prediction capabilities, which inform decision-making for water management, flood response, and emergency services.
NOAA’s Southwest Fisheries Science Center recently signed a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with Fishtechy, Inc.—a small business that helps anglers accurately measure the size of their catch—to develop the Fishtechy app for commercial and recreational anglers.
NOAA PMEL researchers sent ocean drones to the U.S. Arctic to test their remote navigation capabilities close to ice and to collect data on Arctic weather, climate, and ecosystems. The saildrones were equipped to observe oceanic and atmospheric variables that are needed to estimate air-sea fluxes of heat, momentum, and carbon dioxide. Comparing Saildrone data to data obtained through existing collection methods allowed researchers to identify ways to improve ice navigation in the future.
