Predict climate structure based on historical and projected average growing season air temperatures and growing degree days. Locate and assess appropriate cultivars and sites. Define general suitability for NM viticulture. Vineyard Physiography Geographical extent corresponds to a mean annual temperature of 10°C to 20°C Average annual temperature correlates well to global vineyard locations. Grape growth and wine quality are a function of local and regional climate factors. Source: http://www.thirtyfifty.co.uk/images/World-wine-map.gif Global Wine Production Global wine production in 2013 reached 7.4 billion gallons, matching record highs from 2006 (OIV 2013). 2014 saw a 6% decrease. (OIV 2014). Currently, the most popular varietals cultivated worldwide are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Tempranillo, Chardonnay, and Syrah. Fifteen varietals accounted for half of the world’s harvested grapes in 2010, versus twenty-one in 2000. Red varieties are planted more frequently than white, occupying fifty-five percent of area under the vine as of 2010 (Anderson and Aryal 2013). Wine History in the USA Vine cuttings imported from Parras, Mexico in 1629, traveled with missionaries north via the El Camino Real to a Piro Indian pueblo south of Socorro named Senecú. (Street 2012). First documented wine grape planted in North America or New Mexico was a variety of Vitis vinifera, commonly called the “mission grape.” Vikings and Vinland +/- 1000 AD Jamestown, Virginia 1607 AD "Usa edcp location map" by Uwe Dedering - Own work.

For the first time in recorded history, the Earth's temperature is clearly more than 1.0 C (1.8 F) above the 1850-1900 average. 2015 was approximately 0.1 degree C (about 0.2 degrees F) hotter than 2014, which had tied with 2005 and 2010 as the previous hottest years. 2015 set the record with 99.996% confidence. The analysis covered the entire surface of the Earth, including temperatures from both land and oceans. The warming was not uniform, and for the contiguous United States, it was the 2nd warmest year ever (+1.33 C), surpassed only by 2012. The National Climate Assessment 2014 report that summarizes the impacts of climate change on the United States, now and in the future. Data Source: Texas Tech University A team of more than 300 experts guided by a 60-member Federal Advisory Committee produced the report, which was extensively reviewed by the public and experts, including federal agencies and a panel of the National Academy of Sciences. http://www.globalchange.gov National Climate Assessment U.S. Southwest Increased heat and changes to rain and snowpack will send ripple effects throughout the region affecting 56 million people. Population expected to increase to 94 million by 2050 – and its critical agriculture sector. Severe and sustained drought will stress water sources, already over-utilized in many areas, forcing increasing competition among farmers, energy producers, urban dwellers, and ecosystems for the region’s most precious resource. CO 2 levels have increased to 400 ppm, higher than any time in at least the last one million years. Specialty Crops More than half of the nation’s high-value specialty crops, including certain fruits, nuts, and vegetables, come from the Southwest. A longer frost-free season, less frequent cold air outbreaks, and more frequent heat waves accelerate crop ripening and maturity, reduce yields of corn, tree fruit, and wine grapes, stress livestock, and increase agricultural water consumption. These changes are projected to continue and intensify, possibly requiring a northward shift in crop production, displacing existing growers and affecting farming communities. California’s Central Valley The area capable of consistently producing grapes required for the highest-quality wines is projected to decline by more than 50% by late this century. The 2015 year delivered California vintners and growers across the state another stellar vintage. Despite a lighter crop—compared to last year—from one of the earliest seasons on record. http://www.discovercaliforniawines.com/2015-california-winegrape-harvest/ Terroir Geography plays a vital role in how these individual local and regional climate characteristics affect vineyard practices; this geospatial relationship between land and vine is referred to as terroir. The root of the word 'terroir' is 'terre', which in French means 'land' or 'earth'. Climate, soil, terrain, and tradition are common variables used to describe terroir. Secondary variables such as localized bacteria and wild yeast growth (brettanomyces), found in specific ecological regions, may be present on the skins of the grape, translating into wine characteristics and complexity reflective of their terroir.

This project is Submitted to the UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Department of Landscape Architecture, College of Architecture and the Allied Arts not a typical historical analysis of the landscape of Mission Santa Barbara, nor a detailed historic rendering of the beautiful architecture and surrounding landscape. Nor is this merely a literary compilation. This project is a unique perspective between all of the professionals that tell stories of the missions – architects, landscape architects, planners, artists, historians, archeologists, anthropologists, Padres, tourists, etc. – and is woven into a product rich in illustrations and backed by interesting facts and sources. This project illustrates elements of the mission that most people might not see from a typical tourist viewpoint. This visual essay communicates the rich history of this influential place in a way that more fully demonstrates the fascinating elements of this mission’s systems and strives to lead the reader to a greater appreciation of this place that is part building, part garden, part lore.

  • City of Portales Review of Water Supply Options
    CITY OF PORTALES REVIEW OF WATER SUPPLY OPTIONS Prepared for City of Portales Prepared by Charles R. Wilson, Consultant, LLC Santa Fe, New Mexico November 2013 Executive Summary This report presents an overview of optional sources of municipal water supply to supplement Portales’ current supply from the Blackwater Wellfield. Consideration has been given to obtaining supplemental supplies from shallow groundwater, deep groundwater, and surface water from Ute Reservoir. In addition, the report reviews alternatives for reducing water demands including wastewater recycling as well as other water conservation measures. Shallow Groundwater. Shallow groundwater from the Ogallala Aquifer in the vicinity of Portales does not provide a sustainable supply for municipal use. It has become limited in quantity and the City’s Blackwater Wellfield may be unable to support the current rate of use within 10 to 15 years. In the longer term, shallow groundwater can only be considered as a low yield, emergency water source. However, the aquifer could be used to store excess water when available from other sources, such as Ute Reservoir. Deep Groundwater. Deep groundwater from below the Ogallala Aquifer is not a promising water supply alternative for east-central New Mexico. Any water that could be available from this source would be expensive to access, of low quality, and likely also of low quantity. Further, deep groundwater would not be a renewable source of supply. nPursuit of deep groundwater in the Roosevelt – Curry County area would be costly, have a high probability of failure, and is not recommended at this time. Ute Reservoir. A surface water supply from Ute Reservoir on the Canadian River is the only available alternative that would provide Portales with a demonstrated, renewable water supply in sufficient quantity for municipal use.
