The award provides funds to develop a prototype mini acoustically tracked drogue. The drogue is being developed in response to the need to understand the patterns and mechanisms of larval transport, identified as a priority by the Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO) workshop participants in January 02. The PI has looked at currently available drogues and has determined that they are not suitable because of their size and limited ability to supply positional information while submerged. The PI plans to research, design, fabricate, and test the prototype mini-drogue. If successful, the proposed instrument would provide insights into aspects of the nearshore circulation such as sub-surface parcel trajectories connecting offshore coastal circulation features to shallow water habitats near shore and will significantly advance our understanding of how coastal circulation processes deliver larvae to coastal ecosystems.

该奖项提供了开发原型迷你声学跟踪的鲜花的资金。为了理解幼虫运输的模式和机制的需求，正在开发沟渠，这是由沿海海洋跨学科研究（PISCO）讲习班参与者的合作伙伴关系确定的。 PI计划研究，设计，制造和测试原型迷你菜单。如果成功的话，拟议的仪器将提供有关近海循环方面的见解，例如将沿海沿海循环特征与岸边浅水栖息地相连的地下包裹轨迹，并将大大提高我们对沿海循环过程如何将幼虫传递到沿海生态系统的理解。
