The type of habitat was also determined to clarify whether the habitat is a wet or dry meadow, bog or fen. Bryophyte identification was begun in 2010 with the first specimens collected and continued on through 2011 when most priority bryophytes were identified. The meadows selected represent the highest probability habitat for wetland bryophytes and fungi on Detroit and Sweet Home Ranger Districts. Some of these meadows may have been surveyed for vascular plant species in the past, but there are many new non-vascular sensitive species on the Willamette NF 2008 sensitive species list (see attachment 1) and additional species being being added to the proposed 2012 Regional Forester’s sensitive species list (unpublished). Meadows surveyed on the Detroit Ranger District included: Tule Lake meadow complex, Twin Meadows, Marion Lake meadow complex, Jo Jo Lake site, Wild Cheat Meadows, Bruno Meadows, Pigeon Prairie Meadow complex and Big Meadows. On the Sweet Home Ranger District Gordon Lake Meadows Complex was surveyed.

  • Mountain Plants of Northeastern Utah
    MOUNTAIN PLANTS OF NORTHEASTERN UTAH Original booklet and drawings by Berniece A. Andersen and Arthur H. Holmgren Revised May 1996 HG 506 FOREWORD In the original printing, the purpose of this manual was to serve as a guide for students, amateur botanists and anyone interested in the wildflowers of a rather limited geographic area. The intent was to depict and describe over 400 common, conspicuous or beautiful species. In this revision we have tried to maintain the intent and integrity of the original. Scientific names have been updated in accordance with changes in taxonomic thought since the time of the first printing. Some changes have been incorporated in order to make the manual more user-friendly for the beginner. The species are now organized primarily by floral color. We hope that these changes serve to enhance the enjoyment and usefulness of this long-popular manual. We would also like to thank Larry A. Rupp, Extension Horticulture Specialist, for critical review of the draft and for the cover photo. Linda Allen, Assistant Curator, Intermountain Herbarium Donna H. Falkenborg, Extension Editor Utah State University Extension is an affirmative action/equal employment opportunity employer and educational organization.

  • Appendix I Lunar and Martian Nomenclature
    APPENDIX I LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE A large number of names of craters and other features on the Moon and Mars, were accepted by the IAU General Assemblies X (Moscow, 1958), XI (Berkeley, 1961), XII (Hamburg, 1964), XIV (Brighton, 1970), and XV (Sydney, 1973). The names were suggested by the appropriate IAU Commissions (16 and 17). In particular the Lunar names accepted at the XIVth and XVth General Assemblies were recommended by the 'Working Group on Lunar Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr D. H. Menzel. The Martian names were suggested by the 'Working Group on Martian Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr G. de Vaucouleurs. At the XVth General Assembly a new 'Working Group on Planetary System Nomenclature' was formed (Chairman: Dr P. M. Millman) comprising various Task Groups, one for each particular subject. For further references see: [AU Trans. X, 259-263, 1960; XIB, 236-238, 1962; Xlffi, 203-204, 1966; xnffi, 99-105, 1968; XIVB, 63, 129, 139, 1971; Space Sci. Rev. 12, 136-186, 1971. Because at the recent General Assemblies some small changes, or corrections, were made, the complete list of Lunar and Martian Topographic Features is published here.

The principal point of this program was a detailed scientific analysis of the orbital and surface experiments data derived from Apollo missions 15, 16, and 17. One of the requirements of this program was the production of detailed photo base maps at a useable scale. NASA in conjunction with the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) commenced a mapping program in early 1973 that would lead to the production of the necessary maps based on the need for certain areas. This paper is designed to present in outline form the neces- sary background informatiox or users to become familiar with the program. MAP FORMAT * The scale chosen for the project was 1:250,000 . The re- search being done required a scale that Principal Investigators (PI'S) using orbital photography could use, but would also serve PI'S doing surface photographic investigations. Each map sheet covers an area four degrees north/south by five degrees east/west.

  • Summary of Sexual Abuse Claims in Chapter 11 Cases of Boy Scouts of America
    Summary of Sexual Abuse Claims in Chapter 11 Cases of Boy Scouts of America There are approximately 101,135sexual abuse claims filed. Of those claims, the Tort Claimants’ Committee estimates that there are approximately 83,807 unique claims if the amended and superseded and multiple claims filed on account of the same survivor are removed. The summary of sexual abuse claims below uses the set of 83,807 of claim for purposes of claims summary below.1 The Tort Claimants’ Committee has broken down the sexual abuse claims in various categories for the purpose of disclosing where and when the sexual abuse claims arose and the identity of certain of the parties that are implicated in the alleged sexual abuse. Attached hereto as Exhibit 1 is a chart that shows the sexual abuse claims broken down by the year in which they first arose. Please note that there approximately 10,500 claims did not provide a date for when the sexual abuse occurred. As a result, those claims have not been assigned a year in which the abuse first arose. Attached hereto as Exhibit 2 is a chart that shows the claims broken down by the state or jurisdiction in which they arose. Please note there are approximately 7,186 claims that did not provide a location of abuse. Those claims are reflected by YY or ZZ in the codes used to identify the applicable state or jurisdiction. Those claims have not been assigned a state or other jurisdiction. Attached hereto as Exhibit 3 is a chart that shows the claims broken down by the Local Council implicated in the sexual abuse.

  • EXAMINING the SOIL LEGACY EFFECTS of SPOTTED KNAPWEED (Centaurea Stoebe)
    EXAMINING THE SOIL LEGACY EFFECTS OF SPOTTED KNAPWEED (Centaurea stoebe) by MATTHEW GUNN COGHILL B. Sc., Thompson Rivers University, 2015 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of: MASTER OF SCIENCE IN ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE Thesis examining committee: Lauchlan Fraser (PhD), Professor and Thesis Supervisor, Department of Natural Resource Sciences, Thompson Rivers University Lyn Baldwin (PhD), Associate Professor and Committee Member, Faculty of Science, Thompson Rivers University Wendy Gardner (PhD), Associate Professor and Committee Member, Department of Natural Resource Sciences, Thompson Rivers University Winter 2021 Thompson Rivers University © Matthew Gunn Coghill, 2021 ii Abstract Spotted knapweed (Centaurea stoebe) is the most aggressive invasive forb in North American grasslands. Since its arrival, it has spread from the west coast of North America and reached far east. It has been able to accomplish this via the production of many small seeds per plant, and by altering soil conditions making it difficult for native plants to grow in. Control efforts have been extensive. Broadcast chemical controls have been applied, as well as biological and physical controls; however, despite these interventions, spotted knapweed continues to have negative effects on ecosystems and their functions. Spotted knapweed may have a negative legacy effect in the soils they inhabit, which perpetuates even after removal of this plant. To test for potential soil legacy effects, a greenhouse experiment was devised in which C. stoebe and rough fescue (Festuca campestris) were grown in different soil types. Activated carbon and pulp mill fly ash were used as soil amendments in each soil type in an attempt to return soils to a pristine state, and we found that F.
