Company Profile:
Founded in 1876, Texas A&M University is a U.S. public and comprehensive university offering a wide variety of academic programs far beyond its original label of agricultural and mechanical trainings. It is one of the few institutions holding triple federal designations as a land-, sea- and ...
A NOAA ETL experiment which took place in 1995. The objectives were to determine how environmental conditions affect observations of internal waves with active and passive microwave sensors, to develop improved instrumentation and techniques for observation of the air–sea interface, and to evaluate new scattering theories.
Industry:Earth science
A NOAA ETL program conducted in September 1993. It was an experiment to study the effects of the atmosphere on active and passive microwave remote sensing measurements of the ocean surface.
Industry:Earth science
A NOAA PMEL program established in 1984 to focus research on determining the oceanic impacts and consequences of submarine hydrothermal venting, with most of the effort directed towards achieving an understanding of the chemical and thermal effects of venting along northeast Pacific Ocean seafloor spreading centers.
Industry:Earth science
A NOAA PMEL project to demonstrate the use of satellite technology with existing tsunami warning methods to create a low– cost, reliable, local tsunami warning system.
Industry:Earth science
A NOAA PMEL project to develop a real–time capability for satellite transmission of ADCP data from deep water surface moorings. The first PROTEUS mooring was successfully deployed in April 1990 at 0°, 140° W as part of the EPOCS program.
Industry:Earth science
A NOAA program to provide timely, accurate, and continuually improving worldwide forecast guidance products.
Industry:Earth science
A NOAA program to stud the birthdate history of survivors (larvae, late larvae, and juveniles) to determine which life history phase or passage (spawning, transport across the shelf, inlet ingress, estuarine development, inlet egress) regulates recruitment variability in annual cohorts of transgressive species like Atlantic menhaden.
Industry:Earth science
A NOAA program whose mission is to advance knowledge essential for wise use of the nation’s oceanic, coastal, and large lake resources. It supports NOAA and local research needs through a partnership with regional, university–based National Undersea Research Centers (NURCs).
Industry:Earth science
A NOAA project directed at increased understanding of the role of western boundary currents of the Atlantic ocean in meridional heat flux and development of strategies to monitor important western boundary features.
Industry:Earth science
A NOAA project established to conduct research and produce information products on climate variability related to the ENSO climate cycle in the U.S.-affiliated Pacific Island.
