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. 16-18 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...

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. 16-18 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...

The Final Determination for the Cantwell Traditional Use Area (TUA) allows subsistence users to operate off-road vehicles (ORV) within the Cantwell TUA for subsistence hunting purposes. Following this decision, Denali National Park and Preserve (DNP&P) established an ORV monitoring program to determine annual ORV use levels, track damage to resources and monitor the condition of open trails and routes with the Traditional Use Area. 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. 16-18 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...

All About Moonshine
ISBN: 9781499215793 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 32 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 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...

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. 16-18 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...
