U.S. Navy Lt. Caroline Kelly, an officer-scholar studying meteorology and oceanography (METOC) at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS), returned from the Arctic this past February where she conducted cryoacoustics research supporting her NPS thesis. With the U.S. Navy facing immediate challenges due to increasing adversary activities in the harsh, inaccessible Arctic, Kelly’s research aims to help improve naval operations in this critical environment.
