Regional Analysis of Flood Hazards Along the Colorado Front Range.” Speaker--John Pitlick, Professor of Geography, University of Colorado, Boulder
Newsletter of the Society March 2014 ColoradoColorado ScientificScientific SocietySociety The objective of the Society is to promote the knowledge and understanding of Earth science, and its application to human needs Thursday, March 20th: R EGIONAL A NALYSIS OF F LOOD H AZARDS ALONG THE C OLORADO F RONT R ANGE by John Pitlick Professor of Geography University of Colorado, Boulder Location—Shepherd of the Hills Church, 11500 W. 20th. Ave. (at Simms St.), Lakewood, Colorado Social time— 6:30 p.m. Lecture—7:00 p.m. 1 Abstract The hazards associated with rare but intense rainfall are well known in Colorado, and many communi- ties along the Front Range have taken action over the years to mitigate potential damage and loss of life from rare floods. In September 2013, we had the opportunity to observe firsthand what it is like to get half a years-worth of precipitation in one or two days, and we can begin to appreciate how the actions taken to reduce flood risks in the city of Boulder benefited the community as a whole. Nonetheless many questions have arisen in the aftermath of the 2013 flood. For example, media reports have sug- gested that this was a 100-yr flood. What is the basis for that estimate? How do published maps of in- undation for floods with different return periods compare with the extent of flooding in 2013? Did burned areas contribute disproportionately to the floods? We don't have complete answers to all these questions just yet, thus my goal in this talk is to share results from past work (my own, plus others) that will help put the September 2013 floods in perspective Biography John Pitlick's research focuses on linkages between surface-water hydrology and geomorphology in high-gradient river systems. -

The Art of Shooting by Prof. Phillip Treleaven
Art of Shooting Art of Shooting An introduction to target shooting with rifle, pistol, shotgun and airgun Prof. Philip Treleaven Preface This handbook is a ‘primer’ for the new target shooter: introducing the firearms, shooting disciplines and firearm technology, and drawing on the expertise of Bisley, the home of British and Commonwealth target shooting. For someone interested in taking up target shooting, it is surprisingly difficult to find out what are the different shooting disciplines (or to give them their ISSF name Events), and perhaps more importantly what’s available in their area. Naturally you won’t find Shooting for Dummies in the local bookshop, but there are some excellent books and web sites, especially in the United States. Most cater for the experienced competitor in a specific discipline, like Smallbore or Benchrest, rather than the new shooter. I am fortunate in that I live 40 minutes drive from the world famous Bisley Camp, the home of British and Commonwealth shooting (cf. Camp Perry in America). The great thing about shooting at Bisley is the wealth of knowledge and experience available covering all aspects of the sport. People who have shot in the Olympics and Commonwealth Games, national champions for every shooting discipline, experts in ballistics and hand loading, gunsmiths and armourers … and national coaches. Truly a university of shooting – akin to Cambridge or Harvard! However, even at Bisley it is a daunting challenge to find out what shooting disciplines are available, and who to ask for advice. It’s like everyone else in the shooting world knows everything about shooting, marksmanship, ballistics and hand loading, and you the novice know nothing. -

Contaminants at a Shooting Range
CONTAMINANTS AT A SHOOTING RANGE: TOXICOLOGICAL AND NUTRITIONAL SIGNIFICANCE TO BIRDS AND MAMMALS by Gabriela R. Gonzalez Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science In Fisheries and Wildlife Sciences APPROVED: ____________________________ ____________________________ Michael R. Vaughan, Chair Roy L. Kirkpatrick _____________________________ Kenneth E. Webb, Jr. August, 2003 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords : Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), clay targets, Coturnix quail, lead, white-footed mice, Passeriformes CONTAMINANTS AT A SHOOTING RANGE: TOXICOLOGICAL AND NUTRITIONAL SIGNIFICANCE TO BIRDS AND MAMMALS by Gabriela R. Gonzalez Michael R. Vaughan, Chair Department of Fisheries and Wildlife Sciences (ABSTRACT) Target shooting in the United States has become an increasingly popular sport in the last century. In addition to the large quantity of lead pellets littering range grounds and surrounding land, considerable amounts of clay target fragments cover shooting range areas as well as adjoining habitats. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) within the target, as well as lead pellets from shotguns pose multiple threats to a variety of wildlife. To determine the effects of clay target and lead pellet ingestion on wildlife, I conducted controlled experiments on Coturnix quail exposed to clay targets in the lab, and collected wild birds and mammals exposed to lead pellets at a shooting range. The first Coturnix study determined whether quail voluntarily consumed target fragments or limestone fragments. In both fall (F=29.2, P<0.01) and spring (F=6.45, P=0.02) experiments, I found that quail consistently selected limestone fragments, but almost completely rejected clay target fragments. -

DESCRIPTORS Curriculum Development; Elementary Secondary Education; *Internship Programs; *Mathematics Teachers; Mentors; *Partnerships in Education; *Science Teachers; *Teacher Education IDENTIFIERS Texas ABSTRACT In 1989, the Texas Alliance for Science, Technology, and Mathematics Education began placing teachers at industry sites as part of its Texas Teacher Internship Program (TTIP). TTIP is a competitive program for science, technology, and mathematics teachers who serve as summer interns at industry and university sites in order to experience real-world applications of the subjects they teach. In 1996, a total of 12 teachers interned at seven sites and were required to develop a curriculum implementation plan (CIP) which illustrated how they would translate the summer experience into the subsequent year's classroom curricula. This document is a compilation of the curriculum implementation plans developed by the teachers. Topics include measurement errors, physical science/environmental science, composite science, biology, chemistry, ecology, technology, astronomy, geology, life science, mathematics, and endocrinology.
