UM Forms Partnership With Naval Undersea Warfare Center
The University of Montana has forged a new cooperative research agreement with the Naval Undersea Warfare Center based in Keyport, Washington. The agreement will make possible U.S. Department of Defense funding opportunities ranging from $500,000 to $10 million. Initial areas identified for collaboration include:
- Improving monitoring and modeling of coastal dynamics and land-ocean-atmosphere interactions in the Arctic.
- Developing new remote-sensing applications for environmental monitoring.
- Developing new artificial intelligence and machine-learning applications for rapid environmental assessments.
