  • 7 Mahana Series Soils Are Described As Follows: This Series Consists of Well-Drained Soils on Uplands on the Islands of Kauai An
    Cultural Surveys Hawai‘i Job Code: HONOULIULI 172 Introduction Mahana series soils are described as follows: This series consists of well-drained soils on uplands on the islands of Kauai and Oahu. These soils developed in volcanic ash. They are gently sloping to very steep. Elevations range from 1,000 to 3,000 feet. The annual rainfall amounts to 30 to 45 inches. […] These soils are used for pasture, woodland, wildlife habitat, irrigated sugarcane, and water supply. The natural vegetation consists of puakeawe, aalii, ricegrass, molassesgrass, silver oak, yellow foxtail, lantana, joee, Japanese tea, passion flower, and associated plants. [Foote et al. 1972:85] Mahana silty clay loam, 6 to 12% slopes, eroded (McC2) soils are described as follows: This soil occurs on ridgetops and moderately sloping uplands […] Permeability is moderately rapid. Runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is slight. […] In places roots penetrate to a depth of 5 feet or more. […] This soil is used for pasture, woodland, wildlife habitat, pineapple, and sugarcane. [Foote et al. 1972:85–86] Mahana silty clay loam, 12 to 20% slopes, eroded (McD2) soils, are described as having medium runoff and a moderate erosion hazard, used for pasture, woodland, wildlife habitat, and sugarcane (Foote et al. 1972). Mahana silty clay loam, 20 to 35% slopes, eroded (McE2) soils are further described as follows: Most of the surface layer has been removed by erosion. Runoff is very rapid, and the erosion hazard is very severe. Included in mapping were areas where all of the surface layer and part of the subsoil have been removed by erosion.

  • Response to the Peer Review Report EPA Base Case Version 5.13 Using IPM U.S
    Response to the Peer Review Report EPA Base Case Version 5.13 Using IPM U.S. EPA, Clean Air Markets Division SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION In October 2014, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) commissioned a peer review of the EPA Base Case version 5.13 using the Integrated Planning Model (IPM). 1 RTI International, an independent contractor, facilitated the peer review of the EPA Base Case v.5.13 in compliance with EPA’s Peer Review Handbook (U.S. EPA, 2006) and produced a report from that peer review. RTI selected five peer reviewers (Anthony Paul, Meghan McGuinness, Walter Short, Paul Sotkiewicz, and John Weyant) who have expertise in energy policy, power sector modeling and economics to review the EPA Base Case v.5.13 and provide feedback. The peer reviewers evaluated the adequacy of the framework, assumptions, and supporting data used in the EPA Base Case v.5.13 using IPM, and they suggested potential improvements. IPM is a multiregional, dynamic, deterministic model of the U.S. power sector that provides forecasts of least-cost capacity expansion, electricity dispatch and emission reliability constraints. The EPA uses the platform to project and evaluate the cost and emissions impacts of various policies to limit emissions of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, mercury, hydrogen chloride, and carbon dioxide (CO2). The independent peer review panel provided expert feedback on whether the analytical framework, assumptions and applications of data in the EPA’s Base Case v.5.13 using IPM are sufficient for the EPA’s needs in estimating the economic and emissions impacts associated with the power sector due to emissions policy alternatives.

  • Panel 1 Remembering Pearl Harbor an Analysis of Media Portraya.Pdf (99.83Kb)
    Remembering Pearl Harbor? An Analysis of Media Portrayal of the Pearl Harbor attack from 1941 to 1946 Vikki Doherty Undergraduate Junior University of Wyoming Phi Alpha Theta Nu Alpha 1 The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, on December 7, 1941, remains to this day both a tragic and pivotal event in the American collective memory. It nullified the issue of previously divided public opinion on whether America should embroil itself in WWII, and for the most part unified the people of the United States under a common desire for reprisal. As Gaddis Smith phrased it in his review of Gordon W. Prange’s At Dawn We Slept , “The initial American reaction was a combination of patriotism, vengeful indignation, and racism. The attack confirmed American courage in adversity… A banner inscribed ‘Remember Pearl Harbor’ would stream figuratively behind the atomic bombs falling on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.”1 In the immediate aftermath of the attack, media across the United States reflected this outrage and issued an urgent call to war. In the years to come, however, media depiction of the attack altered, vacillating between accusing military officers of ‘dereliction of duty’ and accusing the government of either deliberately or unwittingly withholding information crucial to the protection of America and the prolongation of her noninterference in the war. As the Pearl Harbor attack shifted America out of her isolationist state and into another world war, news media reflected the public frenzy to find someone to blame for the incident. Over the next five years—from the day of the attack itself until the final official investigation into Pearl Harbor published its results in 1946—while the government continually pushed the slogan “Remember Pearl Harbor” in propaganda targeted toward popularizing the war effort, the media ‘remembered’ Pearl Harbor as well.
