Dr. Jen Seiter-Moser and Molly Reif from the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center's (ERDC) Environmental Laboratory discuss how ERDC research is delivering scalable technologies for harmful algal bloom detection, prevention, and management during a July 30, 2021 episode of the Power of ERDC podcast. Seiter-Moser, an ERDC technical director overseeing Civil Works Environmental Engineering and Sciences, discussed the scope of ERDC’s research. Reif, the Geospatial Data Analysis team lead, detailed a specific project that enables researchers and water managers to use remote sensing technologies to quickly detect the presence of water quality indicators of blooms in small, inland bodies of water. Other topics discussed include why ERDC is involved in studying this issue (6:50), the importance of partnerships (8:16), the scope of ERDC’s harmful algal bloom research (10:07), a project that uses remote sensing to detect the presence of blooms (14:40), and ways ERDC is able to leverage cross-disciplinary expertise in discovering solutions for harmful algal blooms (25:51). The Power of ERDC podcast is a behind-the-scenes look at ERDC’s involvement in solving some of the nation’s toughest engineering challenges.
