Water and Rock Geochemistry, Geologic Cross Sections, Geochemical Modeling, and Groundwater Flow Modeling for Identifying the Source of Groundwater to
ISBN: 9781495900402 / Angielski / Miękka / 74 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The National Park Service (NPS) seeks additional information to better understand the source(s) of groundwater and associated groundwater flow paths to Montezuma Well (fig. 1) in Montezuma Castle National Monument, central Arizona. The source of water to Montezuma Well, a flowing sinkhole in a desert setting (see picture on cover), is poorly understood. Water emerges from the middle limestone facies of the lacustrine Verde Formation (Twenter and Metzger, 1963), but the precise origin of the water and its travel path are largely unknown (McKee and others, 1947; Lange, 1957). Some have proposed...

Audiomagnetotelluric Data, Taos Plateau Volcanic Field, New Mexico
ISBN: 9781495906336 / Angielski / Miękka / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The population of the San Luis Basin region of northern New Mexico is growing. Water shortfalls in this low rainfall region could have serious consequences. Decisions for future growth and land management in the region depend on an accurate assessment and protection of the region's groundwater resources. An important aspect of managing the groundwater resources is a better understanding of the hydrogeology of the Santa Fe Group and the nature of the sedimentary deposits that fill the Rio Grande Rift, which contain the principal groundwater aquifers. The shallow unconfined aquifer and the...

Foraging Ecology of Least Terns and Piping Plovers Nesting on Central Platte River Sandpits and Sandbars
ISBN: 9781495911064 / Angielski / Miękka / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Federally listed least terns (Sternula antillarum) and piping plovers (Charadrius melodus) nest on riverine sandbars on many major midcontinent river systems. On the Central Platte River, availability of sandbar habitat is limited, and both species nest on excavated sandpits in the river's floodplain. However, the extent to which sandpit-nesting birds use riverine habitats for foraging is unknown. We evaluated use of foraging habitats by least terns and piping plovers by collecting data on movements, behavior, foraging habitat, and productivity. We radiomarked 16 piping plovers and 23 least...

Bats and Wind Energy?A Literature Synthesis and Annotated Bibliography
ISBN: 9781495911217 / Angielski / Miękka / 62 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Turbines have been used to harness energy from wind for hundreds of years (Gipe, 2004). However, with growing concerns about climate change, wind energy has only recently entered the mainstream of global electricity production. In 2010, the global installed capacity for wind energy reached 196,630 Megawatt (MW), which represents approximately 2.5 percent of the total global energy consumption (World Wind Energy Report, 2010). In the United States, the total utility-scale wind power capacity through the 3rd quarter of 2011 totaled 43,461 MW and this represents more than 20 percent of the...

Oceanographic Controls on Sedimentary and Geochemical Facies on the Peru Outer Shelf and Upper Slope
ISBN: 9781495925368 / Angielski / Miękka / 46 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Concentrations and characteristics of organic matter in surface sediments deposited under an intense oxygen-minimum zone (OMZ) on the Peru margin were mapped and studied in samples from deck-deployed box cores and push cores acquired by submersible on two east-west transects spanning depths of 75 to 1,000 meters (m) at 12 S and 13.5 S. On the basis of sampling and analyses of the top 1-2 centimeters (cm) of available cores, three main belts of sediments were identified on each transect with increasing depth: (1) muds rich in organic carbon (OC); (2) authigenic phosphatic mineral crusts and...

Bison Grazing Ecology at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge, Colorado
ISBN: 9781495925429 / Angielski / Miękka / 28 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Rocky Mountain Arsenal (RMA) National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) encompasses 6,070 hectare (ha) of shortgrass prairie approximately 16 kilometers (km) northeast of the center of Denver, Colorado. Historically, RMA was native shortgrass prairie; however, between 1880 and 1942, these lands were grazed by domestic cattle and converted to croplands and non-native grasses. The former farmland was bought in 1942 by the U.S. Army to establish the Rocky Mountain Arsenal, a chemical weapons factory. During World War II and the Cold War of the 1950s, the U.S. Army produced chemical weapons at the site...
