On this episode of Marine Tech Talk we hear from Dr. Alexander Forrest, an Associate Professor for the Environmental Robotics Laboratory in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of California, Davis.
Dr. Forrest's group focuses on applying autonomous robotic systems, like AUVs and gliders, outfitted with seafloor mapping and water column measurement sensors to examine how localized topography influences water flow in lakes and nearshore coastal zones in the ocean.
