URI professor wins Navy grant to study ocean acoustics
Original: URI ocean engineering professor awarded ONR grant to investigate oceanographic variability impact on acoustics and geo-positioning
A University of Rhode Island ocean engineering professor has been awarded a grant from the Office of Naval Research to study how oceanographic variability affects underwater acoustics and geo-positioning. The research aims to improve understanding of how changing ocean conditions influence sound propagation and navigation accuracy beneath the surface, work with potential implications for naval operations and marine technology.
Why now: The award links ocean science to naval and navigation interests, drawing attention in defence and marine research circles.
