As the services scramble to adapt to 21st century visions of "network-centric warfare" that call for vast growth in tactical information exchange, they'll be looking for innovative ways to multiply communications networking capabilities—while slashing costs. All the services are looking at...

The Arabian Sea Transition Layer (ASTraL) Departmental Research Initiative, or DRI, seeks to understand the dynamical mechanisms that control the structure within and the coupling across the ocean and atmospheric boundary layer, i.e., “the transition layer”, in the Arabian Sea, and, consequently, to provide a framework for resolving coupled model biases in the region’s ocean heat, atmospheric moisture, and precipitation.
