We are developing a pilot CSB program in Tampa Bay with hopes to expand it state-wide after this proof of concept.\u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”TBBEx” image=”https:\/\/www.marine.usf.edu\/comit\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/USF-Marine-Science-Control-Center-small.png” _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_text=”USF Marine Science Control Center-small” url_new_window=”on” link_option_url_new_window=”on” url=”https:\/\/www.marine.usf.edu\/comit\/field\/” link_option_url=”https:\/\/www.marine.usf.edu\/comit\/field\/” sticky_enabled=”0″ image_icon_width=”100%”]<\/p>\n The Tampa Bay Bathymetry Experiment, or TBBEx used four different survey methods to collect data on seafloor bathymetry and coastal land elevations in the western portion of Tampa Bay. COMIT scientists tested a combination of sensors and platforms to determine best and most efficient ways for surveying these areas which are prone to sea level rise and climate change impacts.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Hydrography Concentration @ CMS” image=”https:\/\/www.marine.usf.edu\/comit\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/marie_cover.jpg” _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” title_text=”marie_cover” sticky_enabled=”0″ url_new_window=”on” link_option_url_new_window=”on” url=”https:\/\/www.usf.edu\/marine-science\/research\/hydrography.aspx” link_option_url=”https:\/\/www.usf.edu\/marine-science\/research\/hydrography.aspx”]<\/p>\n Hydrographers in the College of Marine Science conduct research related to seafloor mapping from nearshore areas to regions deep in the Gulf of Mexico and beyond. They use innovative acoustic, optical, and other remote sensing tools aboard crewed and uncrewed platforms to measure and map bathymetry and other seafloor characteristics.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Student Experiences” image=”https:\/\/www.marine.usf.edu\/comit\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/cat1-cropped.png” _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” url=”https:\/\/www.marine.usf.edu\/comit\/category\/student\/” link_option_url=”https:\/\/www.marine.usf.edu\/comit\/category\/student\/” url_new_window=”on” link_option_url_new_window=”on” title_text=”cat1-cropped” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n COMIT students have been generously documenting field experiences throughout their time in grad school in blog form. In Summer 2023, we were fortunate to send several students aboard the NOAA ship Nancy Foster which was highlighted in a series of blog posts.
