  • The Paleoecology and Fire History from Crater Lake
    THE PALEOECOLOGY AND FIRE HISTORY FROM CRATER LAKE, COLORADO: THE LAST 1000 YEARS By Charles T. Mogen A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Environmental Science and Policy Northern Arizona University August 2018 Approved: R. Scott Anderson, Ph.D., Chair Nicholas P. McKay, Ph.D. Darrell S. Kaufman, Ph.D. Abstract High-resolution pollen, plant macrofossil, charcoal and pyrogenic Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) records were developed from a 154 cm long sediment core collected from Crater Lake (37.39°N, 106.70°W; 3328 m asl), San Juan Mountains, Colorado. Several studies have explored Holocene paleo-vegetation and fire histories from mixed conifer and subalpine bogs and lakes in the San Juan and southern Rocky Mountains utilizing both palynological and charcoal studies, but most have been at relatively low resolution. In addition to presenting the highest resolution palynological study over the last 1000 years from the southern Rocky Mountains, this thesis also presents the first high-resolution pyrogenic PAH and charcoal paired analysis aimed at understanding both long-term fire history and the unresolved relationship between how each of these proxies depict paleofire events. Pollen assemblages, pollen ratios, and paleofire activity, indicated by charcoal and pyrogenic PAH records, were used to infer past climatic conditions. Although the ecosystem surrounding Crater Lake has remained a largely spruce (Picea) dominated forest, the proxies developed in this thesis suggest there were two distinct climate intervals between ~1035 to ~1350 CE and ~1350 to ~1850 CE in the southern Rocky Mountains, associated with the Medieval Climate Anomaly (MCA) and Little Ice Age (LIA) respectively.

Research, discussion, writing and reviews were performed primarily by the staff of the State Historic Preservation Office, sitting as an ad hoc planning committee and by other individuals from the staff of the State Historical Society of North Dakota, each bringing his or her own perspective, expertise, experience and philosophical viewpoints, to help formulate a comprehensive yet balanced preservation concept. Preservation constituents and respondents from the general public gave time and generously contributed ideas, evaluations, suggestions, concerns, and assessments. To each and all of these sincere gratitude is offered, as it is to previous staff and public participants whose contributions to earlier planning studies and efforts were of great value to the development of this plan.

  • The Very Forward CASTOR Calorimeter of the CMS Experiment
    EUROPEAN ORGANIZATION FOR NUCLEAR RESEARCH (CERN) CERN-EP-2020-180 2021/02/11 CMS-PRF-18-002 The very forward CASTOR calorimeter of the CMS experiment The CMS Collaboration* Abstract The physics motivation, detector design, triggers, calibration, alignment, simulation, and overall performance of the very forward CASTOR calorimeter of the CMS exper- iment are reviewed. The CASTOR Cherenkov sampling calorimeter is located very close to the LHC beam line, at a radial distance of about 1 cm from the beam pipe, and at 14.4 m from the CMS interaction point, covering the pseudorapidity range of −6.6 < h < −5.2. It was designed to withstand high ambient radiation and strong magnetic fields. The performance of the detector in measurements of forward energy density, jets, and processes characterized by rapidity gaps, is reviewed using data collected in proton and nuclear collisions at the LHC. ”Published in the Journal of Instrumentation as doi:10.1088/1748-0221/16/02/P02010.” arXiv:2011.01185v2 [physics.ins-det] 10 Feb 2021 © 2021 CERN for the benefit of the CMS Collaboration.
