Hydrosat: Next Generation High-Resolution Daily Surface Temperature for Interconnected Earth Processes
SBC: HYDROSAT INC Topic: 94Temperature is the critical signal that allows monitoring of a myriad of Earth’s processes. From direct measurements of wildfire and urban heat to more complex relationships with drought, agriculture, aquaculture, and biodiversity, maintaining a steady pulse on Earth’s surface temperature enables us to mitigate for and adapt to the impacts of extreme events and increasingly variable water avai ...

Low SWaP, UxS-Mounted System for In-Situ Monitoring of Harmful Algal Blooms
SBC: HYDROSAT INC Topic: 92The brevetoxins (PbTx) produced by Karenia brevis cause harmful algal blooms (HAB) or "red tide" in seawater. Currently, the only available ways of detecting PbTx are laboratory tests such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, which are expensive and slow, and require complex instrumentation and multiple processing steps. In previous work Intelligent Optical Systems (IOS) demonstrated a compact l ...

Seaweed-based bioplastic replacement for commercial lobster fishing gear.
SBC: VIABLE GEAR LLC Topic: 93Viable Gear will provide proof-of-concept for a seaweed-based bioplastic to be used in manufacturing a compostable biotwine for marine equipment, designed to replace petroleum-based plastics. This addresses NOM-SBIR research topic area 9.3, The Changing Ocean - specifically to "support increased protection and restoration of marine and coastal habitats to enhance vital ecosystems", by helping decr ...

UrbanScale: Physics Informed Deep Learning Framework to Generate High-Resolution Urban Temperature Data
SBC: SYNTHETIK APPLIED TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: 91Elevated temperatures observed in urban areas have significant implications for human health, energy consumption and infrastructure reliability, and their negative effects disproportionately impact disadvantaged populations. Increasing scientific and practical understanding of urban heat islands is an important step in identifying those regions at elevated risk, and effective mitigation strategi ...

Development and evaluation of peroxide free fin-fish nursery feeds with active DHA-synthase enzyme (DSe)
SBC: FPN LLC Topic: 93The marine microalgae Chrypthecodinium conhii (C. cohnii) contains high levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and DHA synthase enzymes (DSe). Finfish have shown de novo synthesis of DHA when fed a C. cohnii product, KoniSap™, developed by FPN LLC. KoniSap™ is unique to the aqua-feed market as it is produced under low temperature and inert gas to prevent lipid oxidation and avoid enzyme denatura ...

Sustainable seed production for North Atlantic kelp aquaculture
SBC: Ocean's Balance Inc Topic: 93Demand for seaweed products has dramatically increased in the U.S.; however, domestic production from both wild harvests and aquaculture operations only supplies 1% of this demand. To meet demand, expansion of seaweed aquaculture is crucial to protect wild populations from extinction by overharvesting, which impacts entire marine ecosystems. Currently, U.S. kelp aquaculture methods rely on wild ha ...

Development and evaluation of peroxide free fin-fish nursery feeds with active DHA-synthase enzyme (DSe)
SBC: FPN LLC Topic: 93The marine microalgae Crypthecodinium cohnii (C. cohnii) contains high levels of DHA and DHA synthase enzyme (DSe) both of which may provide nutritional benefits to finfish for human consumption. Field Phyto-Nutrients LLC has developed a process for algae-based feed preparation where the algae is dried under low temperature (

Sustainable seed production for North Atlantic kelp aquaculture
SBC: Ocean's Balance Inc Topic: 93Demand for seaweed products has dramatically increased in the U.S.; however, only 1% is met with domestic production. Expansion of seaweed aquaculture is crucial to protect wild populations from extinction by overharvesting, which impacts entire marine ecosystems. Current kelp aquaculture methods rely on harvested reproductive tissue, which is not sustainable. In response to NOAA Topic 9.3, Health ...

Measuring Stormwater Overflow with Synthetic Aperture Radar
SBC: WOLVERINE RADAR COMPANY Topic: 93Many municipalities in the United States have begun to use impermeability measurements to incentivize storm water retention as part of the architectural and landscaping design process. These measurements are performed through analysis of high-resolution aerial photography and updated on an annual or semi-annual basis. The practice of using high resolution aerial or even satellite photography is pr ...

DeepSpace-AI – A Deep-Learning Based Offshore Monitoring System Using Satellite Imagery
SBC: SYNTHETIK APPLIED TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: 93Environmental monitoring and forecasting for marine, coastal and terrestrial environments plays a critical role in informed decision making for a wide range of stakeholders in government and regulatory agencies, private industry, and the scientific community. The need for high-quality rapid data and analytics is becoming increasingly important in the face of a changing climate, which threatens to ...
