Two University of New Hampshire research ships -- the R/V Gulf Surveyor, left, and the R/V (or research vessel) Gulf Challenger, await their next expedition at the The Judd Gregg Marine Science Complex -- 15 miles from the Durham campus -- at the mouth of Portsmouth Harbor in New Castle,
New Hampshire. The complex includes the Coastal Marine Laboratory, the UNH Marine Research Pier and the Pier Support Facility. The complex gives faculty and students access to the open waters of the Gulf of Maine and to laboratories with full-strength sea water capabilities. Photo by Carol Highsmith.
