Washington DC<\/i> \u2013 Los senadores estadounidenses Ron Wyden y Jeff Merkley dijeron hoy que una combinaci\u00f3n de $2.2 millones en nuevas subvenciones de investigaci\u00f3n colaborativa para la Universidad Estatal de Oreg\u00f3n y la Universidad de Oreg\u00f3n para estudiar los glaciares de marea generar\u00e1 datos clave sobre el cambio clim\u00e1tico.<\/p>\n
Al se\u00f1alar que el aumento del nivel del mar afectar\u00e1 a millones de personas en las comunidades costeras en las pr\u00f3ximas d\u00e9cadas, la Fundaci\u00f3n Nacional de Ciencias (NSF) dijo que sus subvenciones estudiar\u00e1n el papel de los glaciares de marea en esa amenaza.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cLos estudios cient\u00edficos integrales como estos sobre los glaciares de marea producen resultados que pueden y deben usarse para proteger a las comunidades a lo largo de la costa de Oreg\u00f3n, los Estados Unidos y el mundo\u201d. <\/b>dijo Wyden. \u201cEstas subvenciones desempe\u00f1ar\u00e1n un papel importante en el ataque contra el cambio clim\u00e1tico, y me complace que los investigadores de la OSU y la U of O hayan obtenido estos recursos para respaldar su trabajo pionero\u201d.<\/b><\/p>\n
\u201cEl coronavirus es un claro recordatorio de lo importante que es que respondamos a las crisis nacionales y globales con acciones decisivas basadas en buena ciencia\u201d, <\/b>dijo Merkley. \u201cSi hay algo que muestra la respuesta fallida a la pandemia, es que desear que un problema desaparezca no funciona. Me alegra que esta financiaci\u00f3n ayude a OSU y U of O a continuar haciendo importantes contribuciones a la investigaci\u00f3n que nos ayudar\u00e1 a enfrentar los desaf\u00edos que plantea la crisis clim\u00e1tica\u201d.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
La Universidad Estatal de Oreg\u00f3n recibir\u00e1 una $1.96 millones subvenci\u00f3n<\/a> de la Oficina de Programas Polares de la NSF. La Universidad de Oreg\u00f3n recibir\u00e1 una Subvenci\u00f3n $253,192<\/a> del mismo programa.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cEste premio de NSF brinda una nueva y emocionante oportunidad de aprovechar la fortaleza de OSU en oceanograf\u00eda y tecnolog\u00edas rob\u00f3ticas para realizar las primeras mediciones directas del derretimiento del hielo debajo de los peligrosos acantilados de hielo de un glaciar de marea\u201d. <\/b>dijo Jonathan Nash, profesor de Oceanograf\u00eda en la Universidad Estatal de Oreg\u00f3n. \u201cEstas observaciones son un elemento clave necesario para predecir mejor la gravedad del aumento del nivel del mar provocado por nuestro clima cambiante. Nunca antes hab\u00edan sido posibles mediciones como esta\u201d.<\/b><\/p>\n
\u201cExploraremos la f\u00edsica de la interfaz hielo-oc\u00e9ano, esa peque\u00f1a capa l\u00edmite justo donde se encuentran el frente del fiordo y el glaciar. Puedes imaginar que es un lugar dif\u00edcil para obtener datos, ya que los icebergs se derrumban y las corrientes oce\u00e1nicas se arremolinan\u201d. <\/b>dijo el ocean\u00f3grafo de la UO, Dave Sutherland. \u201cEstamos planeando recopilar observaciones de la cara de un glaciar de marea utilizando un conjunto de herramientas desarrolladas tanto en UO como en OSU. OSU lidera el desarrollo de embarcaciones aut\u00f3nomas y la recopilaci\u00f3n de mediciones, mientras que nosotros en UO vamos a obtener im\u00e1genes de la superficie del glaciar utilizando un sonar multihaz montado en una embarcaci\u00f3n peque\u00f1a, un enfoque que se basa en investigaciones anteriores\u201d.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Adem\u00e1s de Nash y Sutherland, este proyecto colaborativo tambi\u00e9n involucra a la glaci\u00f3loga Dra. Erin Pettit, la ingeniera costera Dra. Meagan Wengrove y el modelador num\u00e9rico Dr. Eric Skyllingstad, todos en OSU; y la Dra. Rebecca Jackson de la Universidad de Rutgers.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
