These small, inexpensive instruments developed at APL-UW are key to increasing the density of nearshore wave observations in several collaborative experiments.

An APL-UW software engineering team developed mobile apps to aid reconnaissance planning and data collection in the wake of natural disasters including hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides, and wildfires. Renewed NSF funding is seeding program expansion. (UW C+EE)

A collaborative team is demonstrating the integration of technologies to operate, dock, and wirelessly recharge an uncrewed underwater vehicle with a wave energy converter. (Video)

Developing an agressive, resilient, and high-speed vehicle that can navigate in off-road terrain with no human intervention. (Videos)

Puget Sound and coastal Washington waters are changing — carbon dioxide absorbed from the atmosphere is making them more acidic. Newton describes how understanding ocean acidification means studying nearly everything – physics, chemistry, and biology – and building collaborative research partnerships.
