As $16B worth of commercial goods traveled through the Lake Providence Port area, a hidden threat laid beneath the water’s surface - hidden shoals. In response, an ERDC team deployed state-of-the-art technology to alert mariners of the underwater danger.

ERDC, what were you like in the ’90s?

[U.S. Army ERDC @ArmyERDC]

Researchers from ERDC Cold Regions Lab and @Dartmouth joined the inaugural Polar Forum, advancing Arctic and Antarctic climate research together.

[U.S. Army ERDC @ArmyERDC]

Today we celebrate America's 250th birthday and ERDC's century of advancing science to protect our nation. Happy Independence Day!

[U.S. Army ERDC @ArmyERDC]

Every breakthrough starts with ERDC people—modeling shorelines, testing materials, or using robotics to tackle tough challenges. #America250
