Coastal & Open-Water Engineering
Issues that face engineers in dealing with coastal and aquatic environs are in many ways unique from those in terrestrial and developed settings. Ohio Sea Grant's programs have developed new maps/charts, improved the safety and quality of underwater welds, and more. Our artificial reef programs have enhanced habitat and more than paid for themselves in the recreational business they have generated.
