Intelligent Transportation Systems in the NPS: 2005 Baseline Inventory and and Preliminary Program Assessment
ISBN: 9781494871192 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 90 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. At the beginning of the twenty-first century, the National Park Service (NPS) faces a daunting challenge in its mission: to preserve and protect the natural and cultural resources within the nearly 400 national park units while providing transportation systems adequate to accommodate growing visitation-up from 220 million recreation visits in 1980 to more than 277 million in 2002, an increase of more than 25 percent. Because one traditional response-building additional transportation infrastructure-is no longer considered a sustainable or desirable solution to park access, congestion, and...

Yosemite National Park Traffic Information System Network Model
ISBN: 9781499137927 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 38 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This project includes a traffic data needs assessment, creation of a network-based travel demand model, and preparation for multi-modal traffic simulation. The network model presents data of daily traffic flows seasonally throughout the park, providing park administrators with a source to consult when assessing the impact of road closure, tour bus rerouting or relocation, or changes in parking lot capacity. Volpe also worked on potentially enhancing traveler information systems that would assist traffic circulation analysis, daily park operations, information distribution, emergency traffic...

Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site and Valley Forge National Historical Park Weather of 2008
ISBN: 9781492375609 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 46 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Weather and climate are widely recognized as key drivers of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, affecting biotic as well as abiotic ecosystem characteristics and processes. Global and regional scale climatic patterns, trends, and variations are critical to the cycling of elements, nutrients, and minerals through ecosystems and can deliver pollutants from regional and even global sources (National Assessment Synthesis Team 2001). These variations and trends influence the fundamental properties of ecologic systems such as soil-water relationships and plant-soil processes and their disturbance...

National Capital Region Network Remote Sensing and Landscape Pattern Protocol for Land-cover Monitoring of Parks: Version 2.0
ISBN: 9781492945093 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 134 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. These protocols describe the application of remote sensing imagery for monitoring spatially explicit ecological indicators (vital signs) of landscape pattern that have been identified for the National Capital Region Network (NCRN). The protocols employ land-cover data from multiple remote sensing platforms, including aerial photography, IKONOS satellite imagery, SPOT Imagery, and Landsat ETM+ imagery. The multi-scale approach facilitates the acquisition of fine-scale data suitable for detailed analyses of small areas (1-m resolution or smaller) and coarser data (e.g., up to 15 and 30m...

All About Moonshine
ISBN: 9781499215793 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 32 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "Moonshining as a trade, required only a few materials. Like other forms of alcohol distillation, it is quite simple in theory, yet difficult in practice. The four main ingredients include grain (usually corn meal, but sometimes wheat or rye), sugar, yeast, and water. Many recipes for moonshine exist but the essentials are to mix one quart of corn meal and one quart of corn malt (sprouted corn) with five gallons of water. Allow this to ferment for seven days. One of the more colorful moonshiners in this area for many years was Le Roy Slaven (1916-1987). Le Roy learned to make shine from his...

Analysis of Night-Spotlighting Counts for White-tailed Deer: Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, 1991-2006
ISBN: 9781492160625 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 58 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Concern over burgeoning deer populations has spread widely due to direct and indirect linkages to human health and safety (Conover et al. 1995). For example, it is common knowledge that deer change the composition and structure of forest communities (Cote et al. 2004), play an important role in the transmission of Lyme disease (Jones et al. 1998), cause thousands of automobile collisions (Romin and Bissonette 1996), and eat millions of dollars of cultivated vegetation and agricultural crops annually (Curtis and Richmond 1994).

Of particular interest were identifying any severe impacts affecting trail sustainability or incursions beyond open established trails, as well as the amount of...

Garlic Mustard (Alliaria petiolata) Monitoring at Effigy Mounds National Monument Year 2 (2010)
ISBN: 9781492792246 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 30 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Garlic mustard, the invasive plant of most immediate concern at Effigy Mounds National Monument occupied approximately half of the search units within the park. In 2006, we estimated that the plant occupied somewhere between 36 and 70 acres on the park and between 9 and 17 acres in 2011. Control efforts in 2009, however, could not be conclusively linked with this decrease. We also documented four additional invasive plant species in Effigy Mounds National Monument: common buckthorn, Japanese barberry, multiflora rose, and shrub honeysuckle. The relatively low abundance and high management...
