Calculating 3d Rugosity Maps For Complex Habitat Scans, Kindrat Beregovyi, Jennifer A. Dijkstra, Thomas Butkiewicz Feb 2025

Calculating 3d Rugosity Maps For Complex Habitat Scans, Kindrat Beregovyi, Jennifer A. Dijkstra, Thomas Butkiewicz

Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping

Advances in 3D scanning and reconstruction techniques, such as structure-from-motion, have resulted in an abundance of increasingly-detailed 3D habitat models. However, many existing methods for calculating structural complexity of these models use 2.5D techniques that fail to capture the details of truly 3D models with overlapping features. This paper presents novel algorithms that extend traditional rugosity metrics to generate multi-scale rugosity maps for complex 3D models. Models are repeatedly subdivided for local analysis using multiple 3D grids, which are jittered to smooth results and suppress extreme values from edge cases and poorly-fit reference planes. A rugosity-minimizing technique is introduced to …

Changes In Foliar Chemistry And Nutrient Resorption In Northern Hardwood Forests In Response To Long-Term Experimental Nitrogen And Phosphorus Addition, Jenna M. Zukswert, Timothy J. Fahey, Matthew A. Vadeboncoeur, Daniel S. Hong, Ruth D. Yanai Feb 2025

Changes In Foliar Chemistry And Nutrient Resorption In Northern Hardwood Forests In Response To Long-Term Experimental Nitrogen And Phosphorus Addition, Jenna M. Zukswert, Timothy J. Fahey, Matthew A. Vadeboncoeur, Daniel S. Hong, Ruth D. Yanai

Faculty Publications

Northern hardwood forests have long been assumed to be primarily nitrogen limited, but may often be co-limited by multiple elements. Nutrient limitation can be inferred through responses of foliar and litter chemistry to nutrient addition over time. We compared community-level foliar and litter chemistry and resorption efficiency in a long-term, factorial nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) fertilization study across 10 forest stands at three sites in New Hampshire, where N and P were added annually. We measured N, P, calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and potassium (K) in foliage from codominant trees and in fresh litter in 2008–2010 (pretreatment) and again …


Majority In Vermont See Grim Future For Personal Finances, Fear Effect Of Tariffs 2/21/2025, Unh Survey Center Feb 2025

Majority In Vermont See Grim Future For Personal Finances, Fear Effect Of Tariffs 2/21/2025, Unh Survey Center

All UNH Survey Center Polls

More than half of Vermont residents expect to be worse off financially in a year, with many anticipating rising prices, inflation, or poor economic stewardship by the Trump administration. Nine in ten expect that tariffs will raise the cost of goods and two-thirds think they will have a negative effect on the overall economy. Few Vermonters expect good times for businesses in Vermont or the country at large over the next twelve months and few believe now is a good time to purchase a major household item.


Republicans In Maine Optimistic About National Economy, Downbeat On State; Democrats Pessimistic On Both 2/21/2025, Unh Survey Center Feb 2025

Republicans In Maine Optimistic About National Economy, Downbeat On State; Democrats Pessimistic On Both 2/21/2025, Unh Survey Center

All UNH Survey Center Polls

Mainers are more likely to expect good business conditions in the country than in Maine over the next year. This is largely because Republicans in the state are optimistic about the national and pessimistic about the state economy, while Democrats are pessimistic on the prospects for both the state and national economies. Half of Mainers think Trump’s tariffs will harm the national economy and most expect that tariffs will raise the cost of goods.

Vermonters Oppose Trump Executive Orders, Two-Thirds Disapprove Of Overall Performance 2/19/2025, Unh Survey Center

All UNH Survey Center Polls

President Donald Trump begins his second term with very low job approval ratings in Vermont, and most state residents disapprove of his handling of the economy and foreign policy. Majorities think Elon Musk's role in the administration is inappropriate and disapprove of the creation of DOGE. Vermonters also oppose many of Trump's other executive orders. Most state residents think the country is on the wrong track, but almost all Republicans think the country is headed in the right direction.

Republicans In Maine Ecstatic, Democrats Despondent, Over Direction Of Country In Early Days Of Trump Term 2/19/2025, Unh Survey Center

All UNH Survey Center Polls

President Donald Trump enjoys nearly unanimous approval of his handling of the economy, foreign policy, and his overall job performance among Maine Republicans but Democrats strongly disapprove. Mainers are considerably more likely than before Trump's inauguration to think the country is headed in the right direction, fueled by extremely high optimism among Republicans. Majorities of Mainers oppose Trump's executive orders revising birthright citizenship, withdrawing from the World Health Organization, and renaming the Gulf of Mexico. A majority think Elon Musk's current role in government is inappropriate and a plurality oppose the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency.

Nh Bitterly Divided In Early Days Of Second Trump Term, Republicans Extremely Optimistic On Country's Future 2/19/2025, Unh Survey Center

All UNH Survey Center Polls

New Hampshire residents are divided about President Donald Trump in the early days of his second term, with higher approval for Trump's handling of the economy than his handling of foreign affairs. Granite Staters are deadlocked over Trump's executive order pausing foreign aid and pausing a ban on TikTok, but oppose eliminating birthright citizenship, withdrawing from the World Health Organization, and renaming the Gulf of Mexico. Granite State Republicans largely support these recent executive orders and are more optimistic about the direction of the country than at any time since 2003.

Reach And Utility Of The New Hampshire Child Care Scholarship Program, Harshita Sarup, Jess Carson Feb 2025

Reach And Utility Of The New Hampshire Child Care Scholarship Program, Harshita Sarup, Jess Carson

Carsey Publications

In this primer, authors Harshita Sarup and Jess Carson describe the New Hampshire Child Care Scholarship Program after recent policy changes. The authors find that while an estimated 55,000 children are eligible, only 7 to 8 percent are enrolled. Scholarships can represent significant savings for families, particularly with multiple children, although reimbursement rates can leave gaps for providers. The authors conclude by discussing some potential strategies for increasing the reach and efficacy of the program.


Toward Quantifying Interpolation Uncertainty In Set-Line Spacing Hydrographic Surveys, Elias Adediran, Christos Kastrisios, Kim Lowell, Glen Rice, Qi Zhang Feb 2025

Toward Quantifying Interpolation Uncertainty In Set-Line Spacing Hydrographic Surveys, Elias Adediran, Christos Kastrisios, Kim Lowell, Glen Rice, Qi Zhang

Faculty Publications

The oceans remain one of Earth’s last great unknowns, with about 74% still unmapped to modern standards. Consequently, interpolation is employed to create seamless digital bathymetric models (DBMs) from incomplete hydrographic datasets, but this introduces unquantified depth uncertainties. This study aims to estimate and characterize uncertainties arising from set-line spacing hydrographic surveys, which are important for nautical charting, navigational safety, and many other applications. By sampling at different line spacings four complete coverage testbeds that vary in slope and roughness, the study interpolates across entire testbed areas using Spline, Inverse Distance Weighting, and Linear interpolation. The resulting interpolation uncertainties are …
