Underwater Technologies for Studying Aqueous Ecosystems

Description:

As both aqueous ecosystems become more and more under threat, there is an increasing need to understand the changes.  To monitor these changes, technology is an important, and often used, methodology.  This weeklong series of lectures, exercises, and student presentations will highlight the use of methods that consist of both collecting sea water and a variety of organisms to the use of in-situ methods such as optics and acoustics.  A survey of collecting platforms that use traditional methods from ships as well as newer methods that utilize a variety of autonomous vehicles will be covered.  A pragmatic expectation of the instructor is that students will learn about both traditional and contemporary technologies as well as their advantages and limitations.
