Collaborate on a sampling program for collecting data to support fisheries and ecological and climate change studies. The resulting data will be incorporated into the US-Poland Joint Fishery Ecology Project, shared with the Asch Fisheries Oceanography Laboratory at ECU, and be made available to the public through existing NOAA data-sharing mechanisms.

Use NOAA’s SWFSC Ocean Technology Development Tank to test capabilities of SubSeaSail’s Advanced Sea-Going Underwater Autonomous Research Device, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy. The goal is to develop a submerging capable vessel and sensor package that can monitor underwater soundscapes and electromagnetic fields generated by offshore energy installations from both above and below water.

Deploy a low-altitude weather radar network that has the potential to improve high-resolution monitoring of precipitation leading to flash-floods and the detection of tornadoes, hail, snow bands, microbursts, and mesoscale boundaries. Partners will assess the Climavision radar data quality and conduct due diligence of the radar network towards improving the accuracy and timeliness of existing operational severe weather and hydrology products.
