ESTCP invests in a variety of initiatives aimed at improving data quality and providing decision support tools to enhance the munitions response process. Current approaches in geophysical management and data analysis is to use networked, PC-based software solutions, which create issues with security, collaboration, and communication. More
Dr. Erin Questad from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona and her team led an ESTCP funded project that addressed a major challenge to reintroduction success — finding suitable habitats in fragmented and degraded landscapes. More
Tagnite bath anodization.
Under his ESTCP project, Mr. Kyu Cho from the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Army Research Laboratory, led the Tagnite Technical Working Group (TWG) in the development of an innovative technology to mask off dissimilar metals such as steel in completed magnesium components in order to apply the Tagnite coating to legacy components without harm to the dissimilar metals.

It is with great pride and pleasure that SERDP and ESTCP announce the 2019 Projects of the Year. This year’s awards recognize scientific advances and technological solutions to some of DoD’s most significant environmental and installation energy challenges. More
The Resource Conservation and Resiliency team provided attendees of the 2019 Ecological Society of America (ESA) conference the opportunity to learn more about DoD environmental research needs and opportunities. In addition to presenting at the ESA Workshop titled Accessing Research Funding from Federal Agencies, SERDP researchers highlighted their work at the ESA Conference. More
In 2019, SERDP began funding a group of projects to develop standardized analytical and environmental sampling methods for PFAS in the subsurface. Described in this blog are the five projects that were selected for funding, which includes two projects that are one-year, proof-of-concept approaches. More
Weapons Systems and Platforms (WP) technical sessions and short courses will explore regulatory developments within the U.S. and abroad as well as the latest research and technologies making groundbreaking improvements to life-cycle sustainability and sustainment, methods of manufacturing, and overall military operations.
