IS53A:
Innovative and Emerging Research Technologies with High Impact for Marine Sciences I


Session ID#: 7773

Session Description:
This session will offer the marine science community a venue to discuss emerging applications of innovative research technologies to advance state-of-the-art oceanographic research.  

We would like to invite abstracts that describe technologically innovative or transformative scientific practices, data acquisition methods, and analytical approaches, or provide the results of successful demonstration projects that leverage new technologies to advance the pace of research in the marine sciences.  

Examples may include novel remote sensing and high bandwidth communications technologies, in-situ analytical systems, advanced robotic autonomy and teleoperations, shipboard high performance computing, scientific information systems, live data and video streaming and annotation, technologies and methodologies from other fields, and other innovative and emerging technologies that help or promise to increase the efficiency and productivity of scientific marine research and to achieve ever more comprehensive understanding of the ocean.  This session may also discuss novel, technologically advanced methods and systems for sharing information with broad general audiences.

We look forward to a variety of presentations that will illuminate emerging opportunities for advancing oceanographic research via intelligent applications of new technologies whether on research vessels, robotic platforms, as part of observing systems, or in shore-side laboratories.
