To such as feel aggrieved in consequence of error or omission, we beg pardon, and ask the indulgence of the reader in marking such as had been observed in the subsequent reading of the proofs, and which are noted in the Errata, following the Introduction. It is also suggested that our patrons observe and become familiar with the explanations at the commencement of the Directory. The Map of the two Counties was engraved with great care by Co.," Messrs. "Weed, Parsons & of Albany, and, it is believed, will prove a valuable acquisition to the work. The new town of Ash land has been accurately located according to courses and distances as specified in Session Laws of the State for 1867. The Advertisers represent some of the leading business men and firms of both Counties, and also many enterprising and reliable dealers in other parts of the State. We most cheerfully commend them all to the patronage of those under whose observation these pages may come.

  • GEODETIC SURVEYS in the UNITED STATES the BEGINNING and the NEXT ONE HUNDRED YEARS 1807Ана1940 Joseph F. Drac
    5/28/2017 Geodetic Surveys GEODETIC SURVEYS IN THE UNITED STATES THE BEGINNING AND THE NEXT ONE HUNDRED YEARS 1807 ­ 1940 Joseph F. Dracup Coast and Geodetic Survey (Retired) 12934 Desert Glen Drive Sun City West, AZ 85375­4825 ABSTRACT The United States began geodetic surveys later than most of the world's major countries, yet its achievements in this scientific area are immense and unequaled elsewhere. Most of the work was done by a single agency that began as the Survey of the Coast in 1807, identified as the Coast Survey in 1836,renamed the Coast and Geodetic Survey in 1878 and since about 1970 the National Geodetic Survey, presently an office in the National Ocean Service, NOAA. An introduction containing a brief history of geodetic surveying to 1800 is followed by accounts of the American experience to 1940. Broadly speaking the 1807­1940 period is divided into three sections: The Early Years 1807­1843, Laying the Foundations of the Networks 1843­1900 and Building the Networks 1900­1940. The scientific accomplishments, technology developments, major and other interesting events, anecdotes and the contributions made by the people of each period are summarized. PROLOGUE Early Geodetic Surveys And The British­French Controversy The first geodetic survey of note was observed in France during the latter part of the 17th and early 18th centuries and immediately created a major controversy. Jean Picard began an arc of triangulation near Paris in 1669­70 and continued the work southward until his death about 1683. His work was resumed by the Cassini family in 1700 and completed to the Pyrenees on the Spanish border prior to 1718 when the northern extension to Dunkirk on the English Channel was undertaken.

Johnsgard School of Life Sciences University of Nebraska Lincoln, Nebraska 68588 INTRODUCTION It has long been recognized that the Great Plains represent a major transition zone in the distribution patterns of North American birds; field guides traditionally have treated the 100° W.longitude meridian as a convenient dividing line between eastern and western faunas. Furthermore, this line rather neatly bisects the political subdivisions of the Great Plains, namely the "plains states" extending from North Dakota southward through South Dakota, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas. Of these, Texas is the least typical, its climate and fauna is strongly influenced by the Gulf Coast on the east and the Chihuahuan desert on the west. As a result of its size and ecological diversity Texas supports the largest array of breeding bird species of any state in the nation.

  • Riparian Bird Communities of the Great Plains
    This file was created by scanning the printed publication. Errors identified by the software have been corrected; however, some errors may remain. RIPARIAN BIRD COMMUNITIES OF THE GREAT PLAINS Allen A. Tubbs Lecturer, Division of Biology Emporia State University Emporia, Kansas 66801 ABSTRACT One hundred thirty-six birds utililizing riparian communities in the Great Plains are identified and categorized. Breeding birds restricted to riparian vegetation may outnumber obligates of other grassland communities sevenfold. Sensitive and other decreasing species are discussed. Grazing, water diversion, and land conversion are the most destructive impacts in the region. Wood-harvesting in riparian habitat is an increasing and potentially disastrous practice. Research needs and management approaches are suggested. KEYWORDS: birds, riparian habitat, grasslands, management INTRODUCTION Riparian ecosystems have been found to be among the most productive and valuable wildlife habitats wherever they occur (Hubbard 1977, Sands and Howe 1977, Fitzgerald 1978, Schrupp 1978). Their importance for birds in the western United States has been well established (Carothers and Johnson 1975, Gaines 1977, Wauer 1977, Bull 1978). Riparian habitat is most critical in arid and semi-arid environments of the region. Coincidentally, these areas are under the greatest pressure from human activity, which unfortunately is rarely favorable to conserving such habitat and its avifauna. The riparian ecosystems of the Southwest have been particularly affected due to a large increase in the human population and its demands for water and other resources in the immediate environment and have received some recent ornithological attention (Johnson 1972, Carothers et al. 1974, Johnson and Jones 1977, Anderson and Ohmart 1979).

  • Introduction to Solar Geometry
    1 Solar Geometry The Earth’s daily rotation about the axis through its two celestial poles (North and South) is perpendicular to the equator, but it is not perpendicular to the plane of the Earth’s orbit. In fact, the measure of tilt or obliquity of the Earth’s axis to a line perpendicular to the plane of its orbit is currently about 23.5°. We call the plane parallel to the Earth’s celestial equator and through the center of the sun the plane of the Sun. The Earth passes alternately above and below this plane making one complete elliptic cycle every year.

We call δ the Sun declination angle. In general, the Sun declination angle, δ, is defined to be that angle made between a ray of the Sun, when extended to the center of the earth, O, and the equatorial plane. We take δ to be positively oriented whenever the Sun’s rays reach O by passing through the Northern hemisphere. On the day of the summer solstice, the sun is above the horizon for the longest period of time in the northern hemisphere.
