The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Defense Sciences Office (DSO) is investigating how improved ocean circulation models and characterization of ocean parameters might prevent strategic or tactical surprise for our national security. Knowledge of real-time ocean dynamics is essential but is currently hampered by lack of data and information on which to base our models and assessment, particularly in the ocean interior. We are seeking to understand how to monitor the ocean and model its dynamics across a variety of spatial and temporal scales.
