The Swarm-enabled Distributed Sensing (SDS) project was funded to provide a feasibility study to analyze the use of a swarm as a distributed sensor array to enhance the Navy’s battlespace awareness through intelligence collection. This study informs the design of swarm-based sensors and platforms that will use them. The goal of characterizing and u...
This work investigates and analyzes collaborative beamforming for a swarm-enabled distributed sensing project. It investigates the use of a three-dimensional, randomly populated, and uniformly-distributed array in three configurations: spherical, cylindrical, and cubical. These topologies uniquely act like a practical bound to contain the elements...
Determining accurate latitude and longitude positions in GPS-denied environments is a long-standing issue in the fields of navigation and positioning. Much of the ongoing research in these fields centers on costly, evermore sophisticated sensor and algorithm development. Yet, several applications exist, which do not require high levels of precision...
A low-cost (~$100), do-it-yourself (DIY) ultrasonic water level sensor/datalogger has been designed, constructed, and tested for use in education, citizen/community science, and research settings. The sensor package comprises an ultrasonic distance sensor, a microcontroller running Arduino firmware, a micro-SD card for datalogging, a real-time cloc...
Small scale buoyant outflows have the potential to impact beach contamination, nutrient exchange, productivity, larval recruitment, and carbon chemistry in the nearshore region where surface gravity waves influence momentum and energy transport. This study aims to understand the dynamics leading to the fate and structure of an idealized small scale...
The Amundsen Sea Embayment (ASE) on the West Antarctic coastline has been identified as a region of accelerated glacial melting. A Southern Ocean State Estimate (SOSE) is analyzed over the 2005–2010 time period in the Amundsen Sea region. The SOSE oceanic heat budget reveals that the contribution of parameterized small-scale mixing to the heat cont...
