| Air Station Kodiak is providing air support for Coast Guard operations in Nome. A C-130 aircraft and an MH-65 helicopter are being used. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has sent ice experts, Wadlow stated, to analyze satellite imagery to predict ice conditions and movement. The University of Alaska has a team in Nome using two state of the art drones to image the ice in the harbor area and just offshore. |
