eLoran ?
Unwilling to trust the US or Russia, the UK is testing a ground based eLoran system to offer redundant navigation options to ships (and boater).
Using long-range radio waves for positioning, much like space-based GPS. It operates on different frequencies however, and carries a much stronger signal that's significantly harder to interfere with.

Americas Cup Update
The excitement is starting for the 2017 Americas Cup. Last week the five challenging teams were announced who will battle the reigning champions, Oracle Team USA. The five teams are from Britain, Italy, Sweden, France and New Zealand. Last September Oracle, skippered by Jimmy Spithill, pulled off one of sport's great comebacks when they overhauled a 1-8 deficit against the Emirates Team from New Zealand to eventually win 9-8. Spithill is looking forward to see who his team will face.
The 2015 challenger World Series, scheduled for October 2015 and raced in AC45 catamarans (now foiling!) will be held in Bermuda. Book your tickets now! The final decision for where the cup will be held in 2017 will be made this December. The two finalists in the selection process are San Diego and Bermuda.

Affordable Electronic Navigating
If you have loaded Navionics Boating onto your iPad or Android tablet, you've seen how an inexpensive app ($49.00, plus $4.99 each for the Nav Module and Advanced Map Options, with auto-routing on the i-Pad) can blow the socks off a multi-thousand dollar dedicated plotter. Now there's a color depth sounder transducer / transmitter unit that will integrate depth onto the Navionics screen! Unbelievably, the SonarPhone SP-200 "T-Box" can send color depth data to iPhones, iPads and Android devices and costs $ 149.00. (really - not a typo) and the standalone mobile app is free and comes bundled in the Navionics Chart Plotting app. See the full details HERE . Add an app like the Android based "GPS Test Plus" that shows the complete GPS data from your device (including speed and altitude), and you have a fully functional, portable navigation platform at your fingertips! To really give it a test, try it next time you fly (sit by a window to get the strongest GPS signal)
Trying to keep current with the fast pace of marine electronics just got harder!

Humans have used aquaculture to produce food for thousands of years. Modern methods can produce a variety of food species, in an environmentally sustainable way, to feed a growing human population.
The NOAA Fisheries Milford laboratory has been developing methods and equipment to further our sustainable aquaculture mission since before 1930. The lab not only works to further a developing marine aquaculture industry but also researches how to maintain stewardship of our water resources.
