  • 2007 Lake Monitoring Report Mecklenburg County Water Quality Program SWIM Phase I Part 2-CO
    2007 Lake Monitoring Report Mecklenburg County Water Quality Program SWIM Phase I Part 2-CO Prepared by: David Buetow Final Report for FY2007-2008 PURPOSE AND BACKGROUND The Mecklenburg County Water Quality Program (MCWQP) has an ongoing program to monitor the water quality in the three Catawba Lakes bordering the county: Lake Norman, Mountain Island Lake and Lake Wylie. Samples are also routinely collected at the two water bodies in the northern end of Mecklenburg County cut off from Lake Norman proper by I-77: Lake Cornelius and Lake Davidson. Data collected from all lake sites are used to screen for environmental problems using MCWQP Action and Watch levels for various pollutants and also to rate the overall water quality at sampling locations in the lakes using a water quality index. Additional objectives are to describe seasonal trends and address spatial variability in the data. This report presents the lake monitoring data for the calendar year 2007 ACTIVITIES AND METHODS Regular monthly lake sampling was conducted at seven locations in Lake Norman and one location each on Lake Cornelius and Lake Davidson (Appendix A), ten locations in Mountain Island Lake (Appendix B) and eight sampling locations in Lake Wylie (Appendix C). In May 2007, the sampling program was changed in Lake Wylie to add several new cove monitoring sites. This resulted in an increase in regular sampling sites in Lake Wylie from eight to thirteen (Appendix D). Lakes Norman, Wylie and Mountain Island were sampled monthly from May through September and every other month during the rest of the year, i.e.

  • World Para Nordic Skiing Homologation Guide Version 2017
    World Para Nordic Skiing Homologation Guide Version 2017 Homologation of courses for World Para Nordic Skiing (WPNS) (Para Cross Country Skiing and Para Biathlon for skiers with impairments) 1 General In general, the philosophy for FIS homologation, and the requirements and recommendations for stadium and course design applies to World Para Nordic Skiing as well. IBU requirements for stadium, range and course design are also applicable, particularly on IBU venues. See FIS Homologation manual for: - Philosophy of Homologation - Course Design Criteria - Design of courses - Stadium - Waxing cabins, Ski test area, warm up course - Practicing homologation skills However, since certain classes and categories have clear physical limitations, the courses must in general be made easier, with special attention to fast downhill sections, sharp curves, and steep or long up hills. The following sections will describe areas within homologation work that specifically should be considered when designing courses for Paralympic Nordic Skiing athletes. 2 Definitions 2.1 HD (height difference) is the difference in height between the lowest and highest points of a competition course. 2.2 MC (Maximum climb) is the climb with the highest partial height difference, in other terms, the biggest uphill. The uphill can be interrupted by a section of undulating terrain that does not exceed 200 m in length or a downhill that does not exceed 10 m PHD. 2.3 TC (Total climb) represents a total of all climbs on the course. World Para Nordic Skiing Homologation Guide ver 2017 1 3 Classification Paralympic Nordic Skiing athletes are classified according to the following table: Category Class Region Impairment Main sport equipment and degree of impairment Standing LW2 Impairments in one lower limb (ex.

The data from a global navigation satellite system and inertial measurement unit were integrated to compare time loss and selected sub-techniques as a function of speed. Compared to male/female AB skiers, male/female Para skiers displayed 19/14% slower average speed with the largest time loss (65 ± 36/35 ± 6 s/lap) Citation: Carlsen, C.H.; Kathrin found in uphill terrain.

  • Classification Information Sheet Para-Cross Country Skiing
    Classification Information Sheet Para-Cross Country Skiing This information is intended to be a generic guide to classification for Para-Cross Country Skiing. The classification of athletes in this sport is performed by authorised classifiers according to the World Para Nordic Skiing classification rules. What is the classification process? Trained classifiers assess an athlete using the World Para Nordic Skiing classification rules to determine the following: 1. Does the athlete have an eligible impairment type? An athlete must have a permanent eligible impairment type and provide medical documentation detailing their diagnosis and health condition. 2. Does the athlete meet the minimum impairment criteria for the sport? Specific criteria applied to each sport to determine if a person’s impairment results in sufficient limitation in their sport. This is called the minimum impairment criteria. 3. What is the appropriate class to allocate the athlete for competition? Classes are detailed in the classification rules for the sport and a classifier determines the class an athlete will compete in. Which Paralympic impairment groups compete in Para-Cross Country Skiing? Athletes are required to have a permanent, eligible impairment and will be required to provide medical diagnostic information about their diagnosis and impairment. Eligible Impairment Type Examples of health conditions Vision Reduced or no vision in both eyes caused by damage to the eye structure, optical Impairment nerves/optic pathways, or visual cortex of the brain.
