March 7th:

Renee Richardson: My Year as a Sea Grant John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellow

Description: In January 2022, I wrapped up my year-long John A. Knauss 
Marine Policy Fellowship. I carried out my fellowship in the NOAA 
Weather Program Office Observations and Disaster Supplemental programs. 
I will be discussing how meteorology is a good fit for the fellowship, 
my experiences in NOAA, as well as a look into the everyday tasks in the 
Observations and Disaster Supplemental programs.

Heather Holbach: Operational SFMR Algorithm Update

Description: The Stepped-Frequency Microwave Radiometer (SFMR) is the 
primary remote sensing instrument on the Hurricane Hunter aircraft for 
obtaining surface wind speed estimates in tropical cyclones.  This talk 
will discuss the updates being made to the SFMR algorithm to improve the 
accuracy of the wind speed retrievals at high wind speeds (≥ 100 kts).

Alexandra Bozec: The HYCOM-TSIS Gulf of Mexico reanalyses: new products 
at 1/100º and 1/25º

These reanalyses are created at the demand of the Bureau of Ocean Energy 
Management (BOEM) to be used with their statistical oil spill model 
(OSRA). Both reanalyses are done using an identical set-up to be able to 
compare the impact of the resolution on the circulation of the Gulf of 
Mexico. In this presentation, I will describe this set-up, discuss a few 
results (mostly sanity checks for now) and the data that will be 
available once the simulations are done.
