ONR âhas extensive research on computer modeling and prediction of sea waves, ice movement, seasonal ice cycles and air-ocean interaction,â he said in his keynote address.
Winter noted the involvement of ONR researchers in what he called the âscience and technology diplomacyâ practice to establish partnerships with other scientists worldwide, Bob Freeman writes.
“Our ONR global outreach mission allows our scientists to collaborate with other scientists around the world to discover the breakthrough technologies and build the scientific relationships vital to addressing the unique challenges in the harsh Arctic environment,” Winter said.
He also cited other research initiatives of ONR, including studies on marginal ice zones using computer simulation programs and research experiments that intend to determine how changing Arctic environments affect low-frequency sounds in both sonar and water operations, according to the report.
