Professor Heck’s constant constructive criticism and generosity of communication aided in bringing a diversified investigation to fruition. The extensive files of the Arizona Pioneers’ Historical Society were of inestimable help in providing both photographic records of the houses and documentary material. So varied a study would have been impossible without availability of these files and the aid of the Society. The generosity of the ranch owners in allowing me to inspect and photograph the houses and in extending in­ formation by means of interviews and correspondence is greatly appreciated. It is only hoped that unavoidable errors in documentation will be understood. ' Without the plans executed by John Lesniewski and John Leece, this work would be colorless and incomplete. The reproductive photography of Vicky Shelpman enlightened the study. It is hoped that this investigation will be of use to those seeking documentation of territorial domestic archi Lecture of southern Arizona. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS................................. vi ABSTRACT ..................................... .. xl PART I.

  • Birds of Coniferous Forest on Mount Graham, Arizona
    Wilson Bull., 107(4), 1995, pp. 719-723 SHORT COMMUNICATIONS Birds of coniferous forest on Mount Graham, Arizona.-Because of interest in the effect upon the biota of Mount Graham by current development for astronomy, I repeated observations and censuses made there forty years ago. Avifaunal changes have occurred. Unlike my companion study in the Sierra Nevada (Marshall 1988), the losses at Mount Graham of nesting species-all at the lower altitudinal limit of Pinus Zeiophylla chihuahuana and P. ponderosa arizonica-lack an obvious connection to human interference with the environment. Study area.-Mount Graham, in southeastern Arizona, is capped with old growth Engel- mann spruce and alpine fir from 3000 m to the summit at 3267 m. This boreal forest of 8 km* is at its southernmost limits on the North American continent. Descending, one passes through other vegetation zones in sequence: Douglas firs and white firs mixed with spruce, and then mixed with Mexican white pines; south slopes of New Mexican locust and Gambel oak; ponderosa pine with Gambel oak, ponderosa pine mixed with silver-leaf oak; and finally Chihuahua pine with Arizona oak (Martin and Fletcher 1943, Hoffmeister 1956, Marshall 1957, Mohlenbrock 1987). From memory, notes, and photographs I detect no change in vegetation during the forty-year study period. Specifically, the trees at the mapped census area in Wet Canyon (Fig. 1) have not closed ranks about the little openings suitable for those foothill birds that forage among grasses, boulders, manzanitas, and nolinas. The mesic luxuriance of Mount Graham’s vegetation is shown by running streams sup- porting tall groves of maples, by the enormous Douglas firs that remain, by the profusion of understory flowers and green forbs, and by the gigantic stature of clear-trunked alders dominating Wet Canyon.

  • Southern Arizona, United States of America
    Southern Arizona, United States of America 2 – ASSESSMENT AND RECOMMENDATIONS Assessment and recommendations Southern Arizona region: from a resource-based economy to a knowledge-based economy Southern Arizona is the southern-most part of the state of Arizona in the United States. bordering the Mexican state of Sonora, with a multi-cultural heritage and a major gateway for trade with Mexico. The vast desert region consists of Pima County, Cochise County and Santa Cruz County, and has a population of approximately 1.2 million, accounting for 18% of the state population. The engine of the region’s development is the Tucson metropolitan area, the second largest metropolitan area in the state, just behind the Phoenix metropolitan area. About 23% of the land in Southern Arizona is owned by Native Americans, Tohono O’odham and Pascua Yaqui Nations, who continue to feature low education, labour market and health outcomes. Population growth is a major strength in the region, an opportunity for many industry sectors, but at the same time it poses cultural, economic and political challenges. Since World War II, Arizona has had one of the fastest growing populations in the United States. Between 1990 and 2000, Arizona experienced a 40.0% population increase which slowed down to 26.7% between 2000 and 2008. In Southern Arizona, the corresponding figures were 26.0% and 18.4%. Arizona has the fastest growing Hispanic population in the US, comprising about 25% of the state population and 27% of that of Southern Arizona. In Tucson, 40% of the residents identify themselves as Hispanic, while in Santa Cruz the majority of population are Hispanic.

Apaches in fact referred to themselves with variants of "nde", simply meaning "the people". By 1850, Apache culture was a blend of influences from the peoples of the Great Plains, Great Basin, and the Southwest, particularly the Pueblos, and as time progressed—Spanish, Mexican, and the recently arriving American settler. The Apache Tribes Chiricahua speak an Athabaskan language, relating Geronimo was a member of the Bedonkohe, who them to tribes of western Canada. Migration from were closely related to the Chihenne (sometimes this region brought them to the southern plains by referred to as the Mimbres); famous leaders of the 1300, and into areas of the present-day American band included Mangas Coloradas and Victorio.

  • 236 Pinaleño Mountains in the Twentieth Century Atalanta Hoyt
    Pinaleño Mountains in the Twentieth Century Atalanta Hoyt Throughout the twentieth century, a few major events dominated the history of the Forest Service. First, the founding of the National Forest Service in 1905 replaced the Bureau of Forestry and led to the creation of modern National Forests. The new service was created under the jurisdiction of the Department of Agriculture with the purpose of securing a long term supply of timber for the American people.1 Second, the great depression of the 1930s, Franklin Roosevelt’s creation of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and the expansion of the Forest Service changed the shape of National Forests.2 This time period featured a major transition from timber management to hands on putting resources into the forest. The Forest Service and CCC planted trees, carved trails, built roads, and conducted research; actively molding forests and applying the latest forestry techniques instead of letting the forest take its course.3 A third period of great change came in the 1970s during the environmental era.4 The emphasis changed from conceptualizing the forests as resources to be converted into marketable goods to seeing them as wilderness in need of preservation. While conservation has always been an important part of the Forest Service - advocated by both those who saw an intrinsic value in wilderness and by those who used the wilderness for recreational purposes - increased urbanization highlighted the uniqueness of forests. Efforts to catalog and protect the environments of forests became a main priority while ecologists and conservationists gained status.5 These three main shifts defined the Forest Service in the twentieth century.

  • A Brave New World (PDF)
    Dear Reader: In Spring 2005, as part of Cochise College’s 40th anniversary celebration, we published the first installment of Cochise College: A Brave Beginning by retired faculty member Jack Ziegler. Our reason for doing so was to capture for a new generation the founding of Cochise College and to acknowledge the contributions of those who established the College’s foundation of teaching and learning. A second, major watershed event in the life of the College was the establishment of the Sierra Vista Campus. Dr. Ziegler has once again conducted interviews and researched archived news­ paper accounts to create a history of the Sierra Vista Campus. As with the first edition of A Brave Beginning, what follows is intended to be informative and entertaining, capturing not only the recorded events but also the memories of those who were part of expanding Cochise College. Dr. Karen Nicodemus As the community of Sierra Vista celebrates its 50th anniversary, the College takes great pleas­ ure in sharing the establishment of the Cochise College Sierra Vista Campus. Most importantly, as we celebrate the success of our 2006 graduates, we affirm our commitment to providing accessible and affordable higher education throughout Cochise County. For those currently at the College, we look forward to building on the work of those who pio­ neered the Douglas and Sierra Vista campuses through the College’s emerging districtwide master facilities plan. We remain committed to being your “community” college – a place where teaching and learning is the highest priority and where we are creating opportunities and changing lives. Karen A.

  • Bird List of San Bernardino Ranch in Agua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico
    Bird List of San Bernardino Ranch in Agua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico Melinda Cárdenas-García and Mónica C. Olguín-Villa Universidad de Sonora, Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico Abstract—Interest and investigation of birds has been increasing over the last decades due to the loss of their habitats, and declination and fragmentation of their populations. San Bernardino Ranch is located in the desert grassland region of northeastern Sonora, México. Over the last decade, restoration efforts have tried to address the effects of long deteriorating economic activities, like agriculture and livestock, that used to take place there. The generation of annual lists of the wildlife (flora and fauna) will be important information as we monitor the progress of restoration of this area. As part of our professional training, during the summer and winter (2011-2012) a taxonomic list of bird species of the ranch was made. During this season, a total of 85 species and 65 genera, distributed over 30 families were found. We found that five species are on a risk category in NOM-059-ECOL-2010 and 76 species are included in the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). It will be important to continue this type of study in places that are at- tempting restoration and conservation techniques. We have observed a huge change, because of restoration activities, in the lands in the San Bernardino Ranch. Introduction migratory (Villaseñor-Gómez et al., 2010). Twenty-eight of those species are considered at risk on a global scale, and are included in Birds represent one of the most remarkable elements of our en- the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature vironment, because they’re easy to observe and it’s possible to find (IUCN).
