Arctic Technology Development at the University of Washington

Abstract

A synopsis of the sponsored arctic technology development at the University of Washington is presented. This includes a description of the developmental progress made on the Unmanned Arctic Research Submersible (UARS), and a presentation of three recommended arctic technology projects. These projects (the development of an ice pack research support vehicle, the development of a remote acoustic telemetry link for under-ice sensor systems, and experiments in ice albedo modification) are described in detail and rationale to support their early accomplishment is given.
