Technology and meaning in natural resource management : the story-making role of GIS in the CLAMS project

Creator:

Duncan, Sally

Abstract:

The working hypothesis for this study is that the introduction of GIS technology into the ancient procedures of map-making has changed the map-making context sufficiently to require a revision of the way we think about, learn from, and use maps, specifically in the public involvement process in natural resource management....

Hydraulic control of grain size distributions and differential transport rates of bedload gravels Oak Creek, Oregon

Creator:

Shih, Shyuer-ming

Abstract:

Grain-size distributions of gravels transported as bedload in Oak Creek, Oregon, show systematic variations with changing flow discharges. At low discharges the gravel distributions are nearly symmetrical and Gaussian. As discharges increase, the distributions become more skewed and follow the ideal Rosin distribution. The patterns of variations are established by...
