Coastal Response Research Center

NOAA Office of Response & Restoration’s Disaster Preparedness Program partnered with University of New Hampshire’s Coastal Response Research Center (CRRC) to conduct a two day workshop at NOAA’s Center for Weather and Climate Prediction in College Park, MD.

North Atlantic Arctic Crisis Workshop (Naacw), Coastal Response Research Center/Center For Spills & Environmental Hazards (Crrc/Cse), Unh Department Of Security Studies And The New England Arctic Network (Nean), Ted Stevens Center For Arctic Security Studies

Coastal Response Research Center

On December 12-13, 2023, the U.S. Department of Defense (USDOD) Ted Stevens Center for Arctic Security Studies (TSC) held a workshop at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) entitled the North Atlantic Arctic Crisis Workshop (NAACW). The workshop was facilitated by the UNH Center for Spills and Environmental Hazards (CSE) which is co-located with NOAA’s Coastal Response Research Center (CRRC). Many workshops have been held to address security issues in the Bering, Beaufort, and Chukchi Seas, but few have focused on the North Atlantic Arctic (NAA), though there are many potential climate change, infrastructure and environment-related challenges that could arise …

Psychometric Properties Of The Modified Parenting Attitudes Measure Among African American Adolescents In Public Housing, Melissa L. Villodas, Andrew Foell, Lisa C. Smith, Mansoo Yu, Henrika Mccoy, Yibin Yang, Ngozi V. Enelamah, Margaret Lombe, Von Nebbitt

Faculty Publications

Valid and reliable measurements reflecting how perceived maternal and paternal parenting practices are similar, different, complementary, or additive in studying youth outcomes are critical for building knowledge on supportive parenting practices for African American youth living in public housing. We examined the psychometric properties of the Parental Attitudes Measure (PAM) which focuses on youths’ attitudes on parenting practices. Data was collected from the perspective of 660 African American youth living in urban public housing across three cities in the northeast and mid-Atlantic region in the United States. Youth reported on their attitudes about maternal and paternal caregivers. Reliability was determined …

High-Speed Two-Color Scanning Volumetric Laser-Induced Fluorescence, Diego Tapia Silva, Cole J. Cooper, Tracy L. Mandel, Shilpa Khatri, Dustin Kleckner

Faculty Publications

Many problems in fluid mechanics require single-shot 3D measurements of fluid flows, but are limited by available techniques. Here, we design and build a novel flexible high-speed two-color scanning volumetric laser-induced fluorescence (H2C-SVLIF) technique. The technique is readily adaptable to a range of temporal and spatial resolutions, rendering it easily applicable to a wide spectrum of experiments. The core equipment consists of a single monochrome high-speed camera and a pair of ND: YAG lasers pulsing at different wavelengths. The use of a single camera for direct 3D imaging eliminates the need for complex volume reconstruction algorithms and easily allows for …

No Consensus In Nh On Appropriate Punishment For Trump, Few Expect A Prison Sentence 6/21/2024, Unh Survey Center

All UNH Survey Center Polls

New Hampshire residents are divided on the appropriate punishment for former President Donald Trump in the wake of his conviction in the New York "hush money" case. Most Democrats think a prison sentence is appropriate but less than a third of Independents and very few Republicans agree. Most Granite Staters do not think Trump will be sent to prison and are split on whether Trump's appeals will overturn his conviction. On another topic, a majority support President Biden's executive action concerning illegal immigration, with Republicans more likely than Democrats to be in support.

All UNH Survey Center Polls

Maine residents do not agree on an appropriate punishment for Donald Trump in the wake of his conviction in the New York "hush money" case and are split on the likelihood of a successful appeal in the case.

Majorities of Democrats and Republicans in the state support President Biden's executive action concerning illegal immigration. However, approval of Biden's overall job performance has fallen since April.

All UNH Survey Center Polls

Six in ten New Hampshire residents support a bill to legalize recreational marijuana that was recently tabled by the New Hampshire House of Representatives. About two-thirds of state residents support marijuana legalization in some form. Housing remains the most important problem in the state. A majority continue to approve of Governor Sununu's job performance but only 42% feel that the state is on the right track. In the race to replace the retiring Sununu as governor, Kelly Ayotte is more personally popular than Chuck Morse among likely Republican primary voters while likely Democratic voters hold similar opinions of Joyce Craig …

Visual Images As A Gateway To Scholarly Inquiry In Information Literacy Instruction, Carolyn White Gamtso, Susanne F. Paterson

Faculty Publications

In this interactive session, participants will engage in activities that use student-generated questions about visual images as entry points to research literary criticism of Shakespeare’s play Hamlet. The presenters collaborated on a student-centered, inquiry-based information literacy lesson (IL) focused on visual literacy, critical thinking, and research question design in an introductory literary analysis course. The co-instructors decentralized the classroom by empowering students to ask probing questions about illustrations from an early 20th-Century edition of Hamlet. Workshop participants will experience the presenters’ lesson firsthand by using the Right Question Institute’s Question Formulation Technique (QFT) as a springboard to research question development, …

Language Models, Plagiarism, And Legal Writing, Michael L. Smith

The University of New Hampshire Law Review

Language models like ChatGPT are the talk of the town in legal circles. Despite some high-profile stories of fake ChatGPT-generated citations, many practitioners argue that language models are the way of the future. These models, they argue, promise an efficient source of first drafts and stock language. Others make similar claims about legal writing education, with a number of professors urging the acknowledgment of language models. Others go further and argue that students ought to learn to use these models to improve their writing and prepare for practice. I argue that those urging the incorporation of language models into legal …

The University of New Hampshire Law Review

Noted patent lawyer and MIT professor Dr. Robert Rines founded the Franklin Pierce Law Center in 1973 with the aim of training working professionals to practice patent law. The founding faculty comprised working patent lawyers from various fields, it offered the only patent practice course available at the time, and the curriculum overall emphasized practical skills over theory.

Today, half a century later, Dr. Rines’s vision not only endures, but flourishes.

In addition to becoming one of the world’s most celebrated intellectual property institutions, University of New Hampshire (UNH) Franklin Pierce School of Law∗ is the home of two pioneering …

Boycotts, Race, Rankings, And Howard Law School's Peculiar Position, Michael Conklin

The University of New Hampshire Law Review

This Article seeks to explain the drastic, seventy-six spot ranking disparity that exists between Howard Law School’s overall ranking (based primarily on objective factors) and the purely subjective peer ranking. Potential explanations considered include location, law review quality, political ideological preference, use of promotional materials, notable alumni, professor quality, unwillingness to game the system, and random statistical noise. When all of these potential explanations come up short, Howard’s unique standing as the top HBCU law school is found to be the most likely explanation. This explanation is also consistent with the corresponding increase in racial salience and the increase in …
