Ultra-Relativistic Electron Flux Enhancement Under Persistent High Speed Solar Wind Stream, L R. Alves, L A. Da Silva, V Deggeroni, J P. Marchezi, P R. Jauer, G B D Silva, D G. Sibeck

Faculty Publications

The physical mechanisms usually applied to explain the relativistic electron enhancement have been delved into to elucidate non-adiabatic electron acceleration resulting in the ultra-relativistic electron population observed in the outer radiation belt. We considered multisatellite observations of the solar wind parameters, magnetospheric waves, and particle flux to report an unusual local acceleration of ultra-relativistic electrons under a prolonged high-speed solar wind stream (HSS). A corotating interaction region reaches the Earth’s bowshock on August 3, 2016, causing a minor geomagnetic storm. Following this, the magnetosphere was driven for 72 h by a long-term HSS propagating at 600 km/s. During this period, …

From "Open Ocean" To "Exposed Aquaculture": Why And How We Are Changing The Standard Terminology Describing "Offshore Aquaculture", Tyler Sclodnick, Michael Chambers, Barry Antonio Costa-Pierce, Tobias Dewhurst, Nils Goseberg, Kevin Gerald Heasman, Wolf Isbert, Gesche Krause, Daniel Wieczorek, Till Markus, Bela H. Buck

Faculty Publications

The term “offshore” with regards to aquaculture has hitherto encompassed various perspectives, including technology, geographic location, legal jurisdiction, and more. To resolve the ambiguity in this term and understand its implications for current and future aquaculture development, “offshore” should be resolved into two separate metrics: distance from shore and energy exposure. The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) distinguishes between internal waters, territorial sea, contiguous zone, exclusive economic zone (EEZ), and the high seas, but currently has no precise definition for “offshore” in its provisions, and therefore no applicable laws pertaining to “offshore” aquaculture. Regulating a …

Properties Of Relativistic Electron Precipitation: A Comparative Analysis Of Wave-Induced And Field Line Curvature Scattering Processes, Luisa Capannolo, Andrew Staff, Wen Li, Katharine Duderstadt, Nithin Sivadas, Joshua Pettit, Sadie Elliot, Murong Qin, Xiao-Chen Shen, Qianli Ma

Faculty Publications

We analyze the properties of relativistic (&gt700 keV) electron precipitation (REP) events measured by the low-Earth-orbit (LEO) POES/MetOp constellation of spacecraft from 2012 through 2023. Leveraging the different profiles of REP observed at LEO, we associate each event with its possible driver: waves or field line curvature scattering (FLCS). While waves typically precipitate electrons in a localized radial region within the outer radiation belt, FLCS drives energy-dependent precipitation at the edge of the belt. Wave-driven REP is detected at any MLT sector and L shell, with FLCS-driven REP occurring only over the nightside–a region where field line stretching is frequent. …

Heavy Molecular And Metallic Ions In The Magnetosphere, M Yamauchi, S Christon, I Dandouras, S Haaland, D Kastinen, Lynn M. Kistler, I Mann, S Nozawa, J M C Plane, Y Saito, L Schulz, S Watababe, P Wurz, A W. Yau

Faculty Publications

Observations and present knowledge of heavy ions with mass ≥ 27 in the magnetosphere are reviewed. There are four ultimate sources of these heavy ions: the solar wind (mainly high charge-state atomic ions), the ionosphere (mainly molecular ions), the atmospheric metal layers that originate ultimately from ablation of meteoroids and possibly space debris (low charge-state metallic ions and metal-rich molecular ions), and lunar surface and exosphere (low charge-state metallic and molecular ions). The upstream heavy ions (solar wind origin and lunar origin) give independent information on the ion entry routes to the magnetosphere from proton (H+) and alpha particles (He++): …

Activist Archivists: Centering Marginalized Campus Voices And Rebuilding Institutional Knowledge Through Oral History, Kai H. Uchida

Faculty Publications

The rapidly changing face of the UNH system, retirements spurred by COVID, and a challenging financial environment motivated SCA to restructure the ways that they collect and preserve institutional history. Through a two-year pilot program utilizing a new technology called TheirStory -- which hosts, records, transcribes, and stores interviews -- they began plans to record histories from University leadership, faculty, staff, alumni, and students. This poster recounts how the University Archivist shaped the UNH Oral History Project to fill in the institutional gaps of its past, considers how this project forms a microcosm of his curatorial and collection vision as …

Variations Of Aquaculture Structures, Operations, And Maintenance With Increasing Ocean Energy, Kevin G. Heasman, Nicholas Scott, Tyler Sclodnick, Michael Chambers, Barry Costa-Pierce, Tobias Dewhurst, Wolf Isbert, Bela H. Buck

Faculty Publications

Aquaculture in exposed and/or distant ocean sites is an emerging industry and field of study that addresses the need to improve food security along with the challenges posed by expansion of urban and coastal stakeholders into nearshore and sheltered marine waters. This move necessitates innovative solutions for this industry to thrive in high-energy environments. Some innovative research has increased understanding of the physics, hydrodynamics, and structural requirements enabling the development of appropriate systems. The blue mussel (Mytilus edulis), the New Zealand green shell or green lipped mussel (Perna canaliculus), and the Pacific Oyster (Magallana gigas), are the primary targets for …

Law Enforcement Agency Practices And Policies For The Investigation Of Child Sex Trafficking: Are Agencies Using Victim-Centered Approaches?, Kimberly J. Mitchell, Jennifer E. O'Brien, Lisa M. Jones, Alli Puchlopek-Adams

Faculty Publications

Over the past decade, efforts have been made to reform the way in which law enforcement responds to child sex trafficking (CST). Law enforcement agencies are being urged or required to use victim-centered approaches that provide exploited youth with support and services. However, researchers have yet to empirically examine law enforcement’s recognition of CST at the agency-level, their arrest practices, or the services that are being offered to CST victims. We have little information about the utilization and effectiveness of various law enforcement agency policies, practices and training programs related to CST. The National Law Enforcement Agency Child Sex Trafficking …

Hydrodynamic Exposure – On The Quest To Deriving Quantitative Metrics For Mariculture Sites, Oliver Lojek, Nils Goseberg, Heidi Moe Føre, Tobias Dewhurst, Thea Bölker, Kevin Gerald Heasman, Bela H. Buck, David W. Fredriksson, Samuel Rickerich

Faculty Publications

This work attempts to define metrics for hydrodynamic exposure, using known oceanographic variables to provide a universal site assessment method for mariculture structures. Understanding environmental conditions driving open-ocean mariculture siting is crucial in establishing consistent ocean governance, minimizing adverse environmental impacts, and facilitating economically sustainable farm operations. To provide a metric of oceanic conditions and associated requirements for structural design and operation of aquaculture systems, six Exposure Indices (EI) are proposed that consider physical energy levels related to hydrodynamic forces at a site. Four of the proposed indices consider only environmental conditions, while the other two also consider the dimensions …
