Below are notes taken from the Coastal Management Cluster presentations at the 16th Federation Meeting, Jan. 4-6, 2006.
NASA Applied Sciences: Coastal Management -- Lawrence Friedl
Coastal Management:
- Goal: enable partner's beneficial use of NASA Earth science results to
- Enhance DSS capability
- Expand and sustain the use of results
Functional themes in Coastal Management:
- Resource Mgmt
- Economic Trade/mgmt
- Emergency mgmt
- Health (public/environmental)
- Coastal change
--REASoN: HAB project - related to Algal blooms
--Numerous evaluations of DSTs and follow-on activities
--Depending on ROSES, may need to direct/fund more projects to jump-start efforts (no coastal related projects in June)
Future Directions:
- Strong model focus & preparation for future sensors
- Themes should remain similar, but bring in new partners
- NOAA: Marine Fisheries, Estuaries
- Coast Guard
- Army Corps of Engineers
Currently:
- Evaluation reports
- CREWS: Coral Reef Early Warning System (complete)
- GNOME: Oil Spill modeling (complete)
