What it funds
Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.
This study will collate physical oceanographic data since 2000 in Cook Inlet and Shelikof Strait. Researchers will synthesize the data into a regional framework and identify information needs for sampling and improved data tools to support future oceanographic modeling efforts. Researchers will also compare areas to determine where low resolution, limited, or dated sampling exists to inform the collection of physical oceanographic measurements to observe trends in a changing climate. The study will also examine ocean models that have been applied to Cook Inlet, as well as other areas, to identify which algorithms and data may be most appropriate for use in future Cook Inlet simulations.
