This report assesses how current management actions are adhering to the original mandate set by the Wilderness Act of 1964 by monitoring the five qualities of Wilderness character (untrammeled, natural, undeveloped, opportunities for solitude/unconfined recreation, and other features of value) as they pertain to this specific Wilderness area.
This repository contains the data associated with the paper "A Hierarchy of Models for Simulating Experimental Results from a 3D Heterogeneous Porous Medium" to be published in Advances in Water Resources and currently available as a preprint on arXiv (https://arxiv.org/abs/1802.01978). These data include the information required to reproduce the results...
This repository contains the data associated with the paper "Steady-State Diffusion in a Spatially Varying Porous Medium" to be published in Advances in Water Resources. These data include the information and program scripts required to reproduce the results reported in the publication. In particular, the data set includes (1) COMSOL...
Describes maps produced by U.S. federal government agencies and distributed by FDLP to depository libraries; and provides an introduction to cataloging, storage and weeding of these collections.
Effective storage and release of low-to-moderate temperature thermal energy (e.g. solar thermal or geothermal) could be transformational for applications such as space heating/cooling, domestic hot water, or off-grid cooking. Good candidates for thermal energy storage in this temperature range include latent heat storage (LHS) systems and thermochemical energy storage (TCES)...
In this work we examine the dispersion of conservative tracers (bromide and fluorescein) in an experimentally constructed three-dimensional dual-porosity porous medium, and in the absence of adjustable parameters. The medium is highly heterogeneous (σ2 Y = 5.7), and consists of spherical, low-hydraulic-conductivity inclusions embedded in a high-hydraulic-conductivity matrix. The bi-modal...
Marine mammals use acoustics for many life functions, including communication. Male fin whales produce a call around 20 Hz and the pattern of a series of calls can vary based on the individual, geographic region, and season. I examined the variation between songs in fin whales. A glider was deployed...
