- Nov 810:00 AMEdTech ConnectThis is a virtual time of discussing and sharing EdTech ideas, strategies, or inklings you bring to this virtual open forum. Each month we offer this time to discuss various topics. This is open discussion, so if there is a curiosity or pressing matter come and drop in. There is a email group to receive notices, and we are building an online discussion forum to extend the topics beyond the in-person meetings. Each month a reminder email will be sent and where applicable it will include an article, research paper, weblink or other resource to frame the topic and initial conversations, but conversations may wander to other topics. We look forward to chatting with you.Zoom Link: https://uri-edu.zoom.us/j/98596492297?pwd=j7zHd3cdMLyrPdnI2NGgUDK6XTJgWS.1PW 912345
- Nov 810:30 AMPhysical Oceanography Seminar: Dr. Thomas FarrarSpeaker: Dr. J. Thomas Farrar, Senior Scientiest, Woods Hole Oceanographic InstitutionTitle: The Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE)Abstract: The Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE) is a NASA Earth Ventures Suborbital investigation designed to test the hypothesis that oceanic frontogenesis and the kilometer-scale (“submesoscale”) instabilities that accompany it make important contributions to vertical exchange of climate and biological variables in the upper ocean. These processes have been difficult to resolve in observations, making model validation challenging. S-MODE was conducted offshore of California, and it combines novel aircraft remote-sensing techniques with coordinated measurements from ships and a fleet of uncrewed vehicles and other measurement platforms to study submesoscale ocean dynamics (scales less than about 10 km) and their contribution to vertical transport in the upper ocean. Oceanic fronts and the submesoscale instabilities that develop on them are thought to be an important factor for vertical transport in the upper ocean, but these processes have been difficult to resolve in observations and models. Team members from more than 16 institutions collected an extensive data set of oceanographic and atmospheric measurements with coordinated sampling from three research aircraft, a research vessel, and dozens of uncrewed surface and subsurface platforms. This talk will present an overview of the experiment and will discuss our team's efforts to make comprehensive measurements of submesoscale-resolving ocean surface currents and and inferences about vertical velocity and vertical transport in the upper ocean.
