These influences were listed in Appendix A Conceptual Models and describe known or expected effects of development CAs on the extent and condition of CEs generally. This rapid ecoregional assessment did not attempt to derive specific cause and effect models on individual CEs. D-1.2 Spatial Models Spatial models follow the graphic conventions per Figure D - 1. Existing Energy Production “Raw” data input- occurrences, locations, etc Facilities Identify impact area Process step 2010 Interim or final product Energy Scenario Identify Key decision highest potential Previous model Preparation step components Figure D - 1. Spatial model graphic convention Central Basin & Range Ecoregion – Final REA Report II-3-c: Appendix D (Integrated Assessments) Page 3 D-1.2.1 Basic Assessment Model Many MQs can be summarized as “Where will X coincide with Y?” seeking to identify areas where, for example, CEs will be coincident with CAs that may cause impacts (but do not attempt to model the impact). These types of MQs can be answered by a basic assessment model (Figure D - 2) that will intersect the distribution map of a CE with a mapped or modeled distribution of a CA. Areas or portions of overlap between the CE and CA can be displayed as a map

Ask someone with internet access to inform you when these updates occur or go to a friends computer or the library to view updates at www.seniorsoutdoors.org. Participation in SO! activities by non-members is limited to two outings per year. Visitors who wish to actively participate are expected to join SO! Leaders: If you have changes to make to an outing please e-mail the amended outing to [email protected] with a copy to [email protected] Participants (new & old) as we start the fall season please review the Guidelines for Participants found on the SO! Web Site. It contains important information about our requirements and general alpine safety. Please note that many outings are listed At a moderate pace. This means the Leader sets a MODERATE pace and all participants should respect that no one should sprint ahead of the Leader without the Leaders okay. Avalanche Alpine Safety Reminder: Be aware that Outings in snow conditions in our area could involve avalanche exposure. SO! strongly recommends that participants in winter outings complete an avalanche safety course (Links to a few local ones are: http://www.avyschool.com/ & http://www.hesperusskipatrol.org/ and a free one at http://www.thesanjuans.org/2014/10/avalanche-awareness-class- schedule/). In addition, on some Outings, Trip Leaders may require you to carry a beacon, shovel and snow probe and know their use.

  • Colorado Agriculture Bibliography 2005 Subject Areas: History, Home Economics, & Rural Life Type of Materials: Monographs
    Colorado Agriculture Bibliography 2005 A Bibliography of Primary and Secondary Material Published 1820-1945 Subject Areas: History, Home Economics, & Rural Life Type of Materials: Monographs Produced by the Colorado State University Libraries Copyright by Colorado State University Libraries Applies Overview This portable document file (.pdf ) is part of the Colorado Agriculture Bibliography project and includes bibliographic information on a variety of topics related to Colorado’s agricultural and rural past. The topics covered in this project are varied but include agriculture, education, water, mining, tourism, recreation, and more. The bibliography contains information about but not full-text for books, journals, dissertations, theses, archival collections, maps, photos, pamphlets, and more. The Web site and bibliography reflects Colorado’s contribution to the Preserving the History of United States Agriculture and Rural Life Project. This nation-wide effort aims to identify and preserve state and locally significant literature. The project involves the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), Cornell University, the United States Agricultural Information Network (USAIN), the National Agricultural Library (NAL), and other land-grant universities. The records in this bibliography may cover several subject areas and are listed alphabetically by author. A searchable website of the bibliography is also available if you would like to create searches and find information on other topics. The bibliography of Colorado history project was funded in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH). The project is part of the United States Agriculture Information Network (USAIN) Preservation Program. Cornell University coordinated the grant project. 1 1. _______ (1930s). Alamosa .
