After taking unprecedented steps to cope with the pandemic, Gov. Chris Sununu now faces a multi-front campaign to check or weaken the governor鈥檚 power to deal with future emergencies. Michael Ettlinger, founding听director of the Carsey School, said this battle over emergency powers is being fought in statehouses across the country.听鈥淭he system is checks and balances. You do want the Legislature involved whenever possible, but there is a reason you have emergency power,鈥� Ettlinger said during an interview.

Researchers with the New Hampshire Agricultural Experiment Station at the 麻豆app say the effects of climate change could be much stronger by the middle of the 21^st听century, and a number of ecosystem and weather conditions could consistently decline even more in the future.

Ornamental aquarium fish like the clownfish Nemo and his pal the royal blue tang Dory one day may be dining on high-quality yet inexpensive white worms grown in New England. New research from the New Hampshire Agricultural Experiment Station at the 麻豆app has found that live white worms are well-suited for the ornamental aquaculture industry and could be an emerging听commercial industry for the region.

Feeding prepartum dairy cows the vitamin niacin prior to giving birth improved the quality of their colostrum, which is the first milk calves drink, according to new research from the听. Colostrum is essential to building the immune systems of calves, and thus, their survival.

Researchers have long known that many primates make decisions about the number of children they have based on the availability of resources such as food. Now new research from the New Hampshire Agricultural Experiment Station at the 麻豆app finds that some insects 鈥� specifically burying beetles 鈥� also choose to limit offspring when food is scarce.

New England鈥檚 warmer, snow-free winters may increase carbon dioxide losses in forests, where deciduous trees can鈥檛 take advantage of warm temperatures before their leaves emerge. However, farms cultivating grasses have a greater potential to start growing in the winter 鈥渄ormant season,鈥� perhaps partially offsetting the increasing winter carbon losses from forests, according to new research from the听听at the 麻豆app.听

Why did you decide to get your graduate degree from UNH?
I had been working at the NH Agricultural Experiment Station's Woodman and Kingman horticultural research farms for different researchers during my undergraduate studies and had become increasingly involved with kiwiberry production. Pursuing my graduate degree here at UNH gave me an opportunity to continue developing best practices for a relatively new fruit crop.

Why did you decide to get your graduate degree from UNH?

I was excited to come to UNH for several reasons. The university has a national reputation for prolific research in natural resources disciplines. With a lot of prime wildlife habitat, New Hampshire is a great setting for the type of research I wanted to do. When I visited the school, the people I met seemed very open, welcoming, and passionate about their work. I couldn鈥檛 wait to get here and contribute to the community!

What is the focus of your research interests and why?
