Fall 2025 Environmental Sciences Seminar Series, Allison Brehm, Allison Brehm

NRESS Seminars

Black bears are charisma c carnivores with ecological, cultural, and economic value in the regions they inhabit. Because black bears are considered a highly-valued big game species in New Hampshire and other jurisdictions, regulated harvest is a fundamental tool for maintaining environmentally- and socially-sustainable populations. However, as the availability of non-natural food sources on the landscape is shining, historical management approaches may no longer align with bear management objectives and it is essential to understand potential impacts on black bear ecology and population dynamics. Drawing on 40+ years of data from New Hampshire, in this seminar I will examine and …

Response: Foreign Affairs Prosecutions And Cybercrime, Mailyn Fidler Dec 2025

Response: Foreign Affairs Prosecutions And Cybercrime, Mailyn Fidler

Law Faculty Scholarship

A response to Professor Steven Koh's new article on how the U.S. makes global criminal justice policy. Prof. Fidler examines what a decade of cybercrime indictments reveals about America's approach to prosecuting foreign hackers. Three things stand out: * Beyond Attribution - These indictments aren't just about naming and shaming, or about the typical dimensions of criminal alw. They're sophisticated foreign policy tools that coordinate and moderate international sanctions and global norms. * Intertwined with Cooperation - The indictments alternately create space for and slow the tempo of international cooperation on this issue, according to U.S. interests. * Power Projection …


Covering The Care: Impacts Of Labor And Delivery Unit Closures On Maternal Health Outcomes, Bridget Green, Deborah Fournier, Susy Hawes Dec 2025

Covering The Care: Impacts Of Labor And Delivery Unit Closures On Maternal Health Outcomes, Bridget Green, Deborah Fournier, Susy Hawes

All Materials

In 2022, more than half of rural hospitals and one-third of urban hospitals in the United States lacked obstetric services, reflecting an escalating trend of hospital labor and delivery (L&D) unit closures across the US. Despite some large-scale studies reporting negligible impacts of L&D closures on maternal health, an analysis of the literature presents a clear net negative impact for vulnerable women, including those who identify as members of a racial or ethnic minority, those who have low-income, and those who are Medicaid members. For many families, the disappearance of local obstetric care is not merely an inconvenience but instead …

Mechanistic Modeling Of Deformation Micromechanics In Commercially Pure Titanium Under Cyclic Bending To Post-Necking Regimes, Talukder Musfika Tasnim Oishi Dec 2025

Mechanistic Modeling Of Deformation Micromechanics In Commercially Pure Titanium Under Cyclic Bending To Post-Necking Regimes, Talukder Musfika Tasnim Oishi

Master's Theses and Capstones

This thesis investigates the deformation behavior of commercially pure titanium (CP–Ti) undercyclic bending under tension (CBT) through integrated experiments and multiscale modeling. Cyclic bending produces alternating tension and compression through the sheet thickness, delaying localization and enhancing ductility. Digital image correlation (DIC) measurements were used to quantify strain-path evolution and elongation-to-fracture (ETF). Finite-element simulations employing a continuum J2 plasticity model captured the macroscopic load–displacement response and width-dependent transition from uniaxial to plane-strain deformation. To incorporate micromechanical mechanisms, a dislocation-density-based crystal plasticity finite-element (CPFE) model with kinematic backstress was developed and calibrated using experimental data, accurately reproducing cyclic hardening and slip-system …

A Comprehensive Study Of Uncertainties In The Modeling Of Binary Neutron Star Outflows, Amelia Michele Henkel Dec 2025

A Comprehensive Study Of Uncertainties In The Modeling Of Binary Neutron Star Outflows, Amelia Michele Henkel

Doctoral Dissertations

Binary neutron star (BNS) mergers have recently become a tool to study extreme gravity, nucleosynthesis, and the chemical composition of the Universe in a new way. In order to accurately identify electromagnetic signals of neutron star mergers, both in the future and retroactively, better constraints on their merger signatures are required. Specifically, BNS outflow properties (such as the mass and composition) are particularly insightful, as they provide a link between the intrinsic properties (such as the stellar masses and radii) and observables. In this thesis, I put forth multiple ways of classifying uncertainties associated with BNS mass outflow models. First, …


An Integrated Study Of Instrument Performance And Scientific Yield: Evaluation Of The Grape Design, Karla Georgina Onate Melecio Dec 2025

An Integrated Study Of Instrument Performance And Scientific Yield: Evaluation Of The Grape Design, Karla Georgina Onate Melecio

Doctoral Dissertations

This dissertation presents the end-to-end development, characterization, and in-flight validation of the 3-dimensional Gamma-Ray Polarimeter Experiment (GRAPE), a wide-field-of-view (FoV) Compton polarimeter designed for high-energy astrophysics. The primary scientific motivation is to address unresolved questions in the physics of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) jets, for which gamma-ray polarimetry is a critical diagnostic. GRAPE is designed to measure the degree and angle of $\gamma$-ray polarization within a targeted energy band of \SIrange{50}{500}{keV} to cover the peak energy output (E$_{pk}$) of observed GRB spectra. This work establishes the instrument's scientific readiness through two principal contributions. First, the instrument's fundamental low-energy response was characterized …


Sensitivity Analysis Of The Faraday Rotation Ammeter, Jason Sisk Dec 2025

Sensitivity Analysis Of The Faraday Rotation Ammeter, Jason Sisk

Master's Theses and Capstones

This thesis describes the operation and error analysis for an instrument that is intended to measure current density in space, although there are other potential applications for the instrument. The device, named the Faraday Rotation Ammeter (FRA), utilizes the Faraday Rotation Effect to calculate current density, where the magnetic field created by a current density causes a shift in the polarization angle of light traveling in a fiber optic cable within the device. The fiber optic cable is wrapped into a ring structure oriented in a way so that the polarized source travels parallel to the magnetic field of interest, …


Efficient Algorithms For Mitigating Uncertainty And Risk In Reinforcement Learning, Xihong Su Dec 2025

Efficient Algorithms For Mitigating Uncertainty And Risk In Reinforcement Learning, Xihong Su

Doctoral Dissertations

Reinforcement learning~(RL) studies the methodologies of improving the performance of sequential decision-making for autonomous agents and has achieved remarkable success in domains such as games, robotics, autonomous systems, finance, and healthcare. The Markov Decision Process~(MDP) is a mathematical framework for modeling agent-environment interactions in sequential decision-making problems. There are two primary sources of uncertainty in RL: epistemic uncertainty and aleatoric uncertainty. In RL, risk refers to the potential for an agent's policy to lead to undesirable outcomes, especially when the environment is uncertain. In many domains, researchers seek policies that maximize the objectives while mitigating the uncertainty and risk in …


Teachers' Evaluation And Reporting Orientations And Their Impact On Elementary Students' Motivation: A Secondary Analysis Of Ecls-K: 2011 Data, Melissa L. Lefebvre Dec 2025

Teachers' Evaluation And Reporting Orientations And Their Impact On Elementary Students' Motivation: A Secondary Analysis Of Ecls-K: 2011 Data, Melissa L. Lefebvre

Doctoral Dissertations

Few studies examine the specific component of teacher evaluation and reporting and its relationship with student motivation. Student motivation to learn and achieve is a fundamental element of academic success in school. Motivation has been linked to educational outcomes like curiosity, persistence, learning, conceptual understanding, and long-term achievement (Vallerand et al., 1992). Diminished motivation can lead to consequences such as higher dropout rates and increased anxiety. Research indicates that classroom climate and student-teacher relationships have the most significant impact on student motivation (Jansen et al., 2022). This dissertation explores the association of teachers’ evaluation and reporting practices with student motivation. …
