We just can’t seem to break through the ice which has formed in the 150 years since the last time one of our own played a prominent part on the national stage. I’ve come to the conclusion that we are going about this all wrong. The old ways may have more merit in moving forward, than we realize. They say charity begins at home. So does outreach. Recently Laurie and I found ourselves in downtown Twin Falls, Idaho killing time over an extended weekend while we awaited the arrival of our newest grandchild. Twin Falls is a farming community of some 45,000 souls perched along the south bank of the Snake River in southern Idaho. This is a place with a strong sense of community and pride in its founding. You might know it as the place where Evel Knievel tried to jump the Snake River gorge in his rocket bike (and failed), or as the home to Chobani yogurt. We weren’t in Twin long enough to look into the story behind the inspiring statue so I went a-googlin’ and got a brief glimpse of how this great sculpture came about. The artist, David LaMure was part of a team that pitched the idea to the city three and half years ago. The grand opening was July 6th so I only missed it by a couple of weeks. John E. Hayes, the surveyor being honored in the sculpture, was a pretty accomplished guy. According to the Magic Valley News “Hayes conducted topographic surveys of dams, canals and laterals for the 240,000- acre Twin Falls irrigation project, the 70,000-acre Salmon Dam project, the 50,000-acre Oakley Dam project and the 25,000- acre Cedar Creek project, in addition to site surveys of Buhl, Burley, Milner, Hansen, Jerome, Wendell and Hollister. Prior to coming to Idaho, Hayes was on the crew that surveyed the boundary for Glacier National Park in Montana, including the 49th Parallel…” I have spent a reasonable amount of time in small communities in southern Idaho and it seems all of them have charming old down towns in various state of gentrification.

The NLDAS-2 precipitation and its simulated discharge are used as the reference to compare with TMPA-3B42 V7, TMPA-3B42RT V7, Stage IV, CPC-U, MERRA-2, and MSWEP V2.2 for 1548 well-gauged river basins. The relative errors in multiple conventional precipitation products and their corresponding discharges are analyzed for the period of 2002–13.

  • Patterns of Change in High Frequency Precipitation Variability Over North
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Patterns of change in high frequency precipitation variability over North America Received: 10 January 2017 Susana Roque-Malo1 & Praveen Kumar 1,2 Accepted: 15 August 2017 Precipitation variability encompasses attributes associated with the sequencing and duration of events Published: xx xx xxxx of the full range of magnitudes. However, climate change studies have largely focused on extreme events. Using analyses of long-term weather station data, we show that high frequency events, such as fraction of wet days in a year and average duration of wet and dry periods, are undergoing signifcant changes across North America. Further, these changes are more prevalent and larger than those associated with extremes. Such trends also exist for events of a range of magnitudes. Existence of localized clusters with opposing trend to that of broader geographic variation illustrates the role of microclimate and other drivers of trends. Such hitherto unknown patterns over the entire North American continent have the potential to signifcantly inform our characterization of the resilience and vulnerability of a broad range of ecosystems and agricultural and socio-economic systems. They can also set new benchmarks for climate model assessments. Variability of high frequency precipitation, that is, the variability associated with non-extreme events such as sequencing and persistence of daily precipitation, plays a signifcant role in a myriad of terrestrial functions. Tese include ecosystem and agricultural productivity which are strongly tied to soil-moisture states, biogeochemi- cal processes which are functions of moisture and temperature states, performance of economic systems which depend on sustained availability of water, etc1.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Andrew Moore
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Andrew Moore: Dirt Meridian January 9 – February 15, 2014 Opening Reception with the artist: Thursday, January 9, 2014, 6-8pm Yancey Richardson is pleased to present Dirt Meridian, the sixth solo exhibition at the gallery by American artist Andrew Moore. The title of the exhibition refers to the 100th meridian west, the longitudinal line which runs through North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas, and is historically regarded as the geographic beginning of the American West. Best known for his expansive projects in Cuba, Russia, and most recently, Detroit, Mooreʼs large format photographs often use architecture as subject and means to illustrate a complicated history of place. In this sense, Dirt Meridian can be seen on a continuum with his previous work, especially the highly acclaimed Detroit series. In Detroit, Moore focused on the new and unexpected landscape that has arisen from the degradation of a great American urban center. To the West, in the arid high plains, the artist has turned to what remains of the isolated homesteads and other structures once central to the American agrarian identity. Although the 1862 Homestead Act created a surge of population in the region, historically inhospitable conditions have kept it a largely empty quarter of the country, and the few inhabitants who remain are for the most part descendants of the original settlers. As Moore describes: “Whatʼs remarkable about the 100th meridian is that as the very center line of this country, the absolute divide between East and West, it teeters between being lost in time, so to speak, yet at the same moment itʼs highly affected by large scale global forces, such as climate change, energy exploration, resource management, and food production.

  • 43 FR 38035 (August 25, 1978)
    FEDERAL REGISTER: 43 FR 38035 (August 25, 1978) DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement 30 CFR PART 715 Appendix - Alluvial Valley Floors Technical Guidelines Notice of Public Hearing ACTION: Proposed policy and interpretation; notice of public hearing. SUMMARY: The Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (Public Law 95-87) establishes a comprehensive regulatory scheme for the preservation and protection of alluvial valley floors in the arid and semiarid areas of the United States west of the 100th meridian west longitude from the adverse effects of surface coal mining operations. The Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM) is today publishing proposed guidance to assist both State regulatory authorities and OSM in the interpretation and application of section 515(b)(10) and 510(b)(5) of the act and 30 CFR 715.17(j) (42 FR 62687, December 13, 1977) to pending permit applications and mining and reclamation plans for surface coal mining operations which may be subject to those sections of the act and regulations. This guidance is proposed in order to promote uniformity of interpretation and application of the act and regulations relating to alluvial valley floors among regulatory authorities who share responsibility under the act, and to give fair notice to operators of the information which may be requested by regulatory authorities when a surface coal mining operation will or may affect the essential hydrologic functions, uses, or productivity or alluvial valley floors. DATES: Comments or suggestions regarding the proposed policy and interpretation should be submitted on or before October 23, 1978.

  • Continental Philosophy Beyond “The” Continent
    Journal of the Pacific Association for the Continental Tradition, Vol. 1, 2018 http://hilo.hawaii.edu/jpact ______________________________________________________________________________ Continental Philosophy Beyond “the” Continent Brian Treanor Loyola Marymount University, California, USA KEYWORDS ABSTRACT Emerson, Thoreau, The meaning and nature of “continental” philosophy is hotly contested, but generally with respect to what constitutes continental thought. American However, there is a second point of contestation with respect to this philosophy, West, tradition: its close association with Europe as “the” continent. Following place, Emerson’s exhortation for a distinctively American philosophical hermeneutics, expression in “The American Scholar,” this paper argues that, within continental continental philosophy, this hope has not yet been fully realized. This is philosophy odd, because the resources of “continental” philosophy (phenomenology, hermeneutics, etc.) should make it particularly receptive to the importance of thinking “continental” philosophy (i.e., philosophy connected to continental Europe) otherwise. If Emerson is correct, we should begin this project by paying particular attention to the particularity of place. And, in considering the distinctive characteristics of the place of America—that part of North America framed by the contiguous 48 states of the United States—“the West” occupies a special place, both as an idea and a geographic reality. The open spaces of the territory west of the 100th meridian—the topographical openness of the prairie, the immensity of the Rockies and the Sierra Nevada, the arid expanse of the desert Southwest—all work their way on the individuals and communities that inhabit them. Among the lessons taught to us by these places is the importance of limits and the need to settle-in-place; but these places also teach us, equally importantly, the necessity of movement and exploration.
