Recent AudioArmed with Science 64: Studying the Effect of Sonar on Marine Mammals This edition features a discussion with Dave Moretti of the Naval Undersea Warfare Center in Newport, R.I., the principal investigator for the Marine Mammal Monitoring on Navy Ranges program sponsored by the Chief of Naval Operations Environmental Readiness Division. Moretti will discuss ongoing Navy-funded studies into the effects of sonar on marine mammals based on research gathered from Navy ranges where populations of sonar-sensitive whales have been identified. Researchers are analyzing data from prototype passive acoustic tools designed to monitor these animals before, during and after active sonar operations, then combining it with visual and tag data to better understand animals' reactions to sonar.

Armed with Science 56: High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program This edition features a discussion about the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program, more commonly known as "HAARP." It is a joint Air Force and Navy research program to enhance our knowledge of the physics of the ionosphere and radio science. The ionosphere, an upper atmosphere layer between about 60 and 200 miles in altitude, contains charged particles created by solar activity. These charged particles can impact long-range communications and space operations. HAARP is a research program and facility whose goal is to understand the impact of the ionosphere on communications and space systems and to aid in the development of methods to improve DoD's utilization of these systems.
