Immigrants and Military Service
University of Utah

Survey data show immigrants are more willing to fight for United States and Canada than native-born citizens, according to an analysis led by the University of Utah. An all-volunteer military depends on a constant influx of recruits, yet the U.S. armed services have struggled to meet recruitment goals, raising serious questions about military readiness in an increasingly turbulent world. The new research suggests residents who weren鈥檛 born in the United States maybe an important, but overlooked source of potential soldiers and sailors.

Wildland Firefighters Hit Their STRIDE
University of Utah

In thousands of simulations, STRIDE produced much more accurate travel times than the standard slope-only models. STRIDE also chose to use established roads and trails to avoid patches of forest or dense vegetation. In contrast, the slope-only model sent rescuers through dense vegetation, dangerous scree fields and forested areas.
