Significant changes in land use and cover _ _,_.'_:,o have occurred during this time. Because of the convergence of prairie, savanna and forest vegetation in this area, and because of the proximity of the St. Croix River valley to metropolitan Minneapolis/St. Paul (MN), the region is ecologically ' i__iii: and culturally very important. A variety of information sources was used to reconstruct the lower St. Croix landscape over . ..... time. The primary sources of material were federal census records, records of lumber and agricultural production, descriptive accounts by early settlers and historians, scientific reports, the General Land Office land survey records, maps and _i photographs. Two periods of rapid change were identified. Change was rapid from 1850 to 1880 as first loggers and then ........

    ELECTRIC MARINE VESSELS AND AQUANAUT CRAFTS. [3044] The invention is related to Electro motive and electric generating clean and green, Zero Emission and sustainable marine vessels, ships, boats and the like. Applicable for Submersible and semisubmersible vessels as well as Hydrofoils and air-cushioned craft, speeding on the body of water and submerged in the body of water. The Inventions provides a Steam Ship propelled by the kinetic force of steam or by the generated electric current provided by the steam turbine generator to a magnet motor and generator. Wind turbine provided on the above deck generating electric current by wind and hydroelectric turbines made below the hull mounted under the hull. Mounted in the duct of the hull or in the hull made partial longitudinal holes. Magnet motor driven the rotor in the omnidirectional nacelle while electricity is generating in the machine stator while the turbine rotor or screw propeller is operating. The turbine rotor for propulsion is a capturing device in contrary to a wind, steam turbine or hydro turbine rotor blades. [3045] The steam electric ship generates electricity and desalinates sea water when applicable. [3046] Existing propulsion engines for ships are driven by diesel and gas engines and hybrid engines, with at least one angle adjustable screw propeller mounted on the propeller shaft with a surrounding tubular shroud mounted around the screw propeller with a fluid gap or mounted without a shroud mounted below the hull at the aft. The duct comprises: a first portion of which horizontal width is varied from one side to the other side; and a second portion connected to one side of the first portion and having the uniform horizontal width.

    Water Trail Plan Inland Waterway and Straits Area Cheboygan and Emmet Counties Funded by: Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce and the Michigan Coastal Management Program, Michigan Department of Environmental Quality with support from the Emmet County, Cheboygan County, Mackinaw City, and volunteers. June 2014 1 Inland Waterway and Straits Area Water Trail Plan Introduction The Inland Waterway is a 40 mile long historic water route that connects Lake Huron by way of Cheboygan, Indian River, Alanson, and Conway and with series of long portages at the headwaters to Petoskey State Park and Lake Michigan. A coastal route, part of the Huron Shores Blueways, connects the City of Cheboygan to Mackinaw City and the Straits of Mackinac. Like the interior water trails, the coastal waters have been used for transportation for thousands of years. The Inland Waterway has long been marketed as the motor boating paradise. Sitting along the banks of the Indian River on a summer afternoon and watching a steady stream of motored craft pass by, attests to the marketing success. There has never been a multi-community effort to organize and promote a paddle trail. Human-powered quiet water sports are among the fastest growing outdoor recreation activities. Combined with other active sports facilities such as the North Central State Trail, North Western State Trail and the North Country Trail, the water trail will bring visitors to the area, add to the quality of life for residents and enhance the rural-recreation sense of place. Furthermore, development of the water trail represents a regional, multi organization effort and will support economic development in the region of the state dependent upon recreational visitors.
