The three thrust areas of research at ISET are:

• Sensor Science and Technology

  Involves a collaborative effort of PI's from Electrical Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering at CUNY, NCA&T and CSUF and divided into three subgroups:

  1. Sensor Technologies for Ground Based Remote Atmospheric and Meteorological Measurements
  2. Development of Sensor Technologies for in-situ Measurements of Coastal Waters.
  3. Basic science: Development of Aerosol, Greenhouse Gas Monitoring (sensor) and Mitigation Technologies





• Analysis of Global Observing Systems

  Involves collaboration of PI's from Marine Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Mathematics, Physics at NCSU, NCA&T, and CUNY and divided into two sub groups:

  1. Analysis of Observing Systems: Severe Storms & Hurricanes Research
  2. Analysis of Observing Systems: Physical and numerical research approach

 





• Data mining, fusion and collection for analysis and modeling

  Involves a collaboration of PI's mainly from Computer Science and EE, Physics Departments at FISK, ALASKA, MINNESOTA, NCSU, CUNY, NCA&T and divided into four subgroups:

  1. Data Fusion
  2. Data Mining
  3. Distributed Architecture
  4. GIS Lab

The consolidation of thrust areas gives each group more focus and the approach is more cohesive. Responsibilities and tasks are distributed across all participating institutions based on strength and capability. The activities are more integrated and complement each other.
