CLIMATE MODELING / IMPACT PREDICTION / CLIMATE OBSERVATION
With Alabama A&M University, we are identifying opportunities to apply new remote sensing concepts to improve groundwater measurements and models.  These models can inform decisions related to agriculture, land use, human health and wellness, and geopolitical stability.

CLIMATE MODELING / IMPACT PREDICTION / CLIMATE OBSERVATION
We are developing a compact and encapsulated optical salinity sensor to enable more distributed and persistent monitoring of the ocean’s 3D structure.

Climate modeling / impact prediction / adaptation
We are developing a neural network using data derived from satellite measurements of temperature and humidity to improve drought monitoring and forecasting.
A dozen operators sit in front of computer screens.
decision support
New software tools provide test operators with automated decision support for directing sensors during increasingly complex tests conducted at the Reagan Test Site.
A photograph of a suite of radars on an island.
communications
We contributed to a transformational program to fundamentally change the mission execution and operations at the Reagan Test Site.

optical systems
Upgrades to the Reagan Test Site’s optical systems combine state-of-the-art focal plane technologies with a wide-area, network-centric, open-system design to allow distributed system command and control while achieving unprecedented metric accuracy.
