    Guidelines for the Design and Construction of Stormwater Management Systems Developed by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection in consultation with the New York City Department of Buildings July 2012 Michael R. Bloomberg, Mayor Carter H. Strickland, Jr., Commissioner Cover: An extensive green roof system installed atop the NYC Department of Parks and Recreation’s (DPR) Five Borough Building on Randall’s Island. This modular system is one of six variations installed on the roof and covers 800 square feet, con- sisting of two-foot by two-foot trays with six inches of mineral soil and over 1,500 sedum plugs. DPR has installed 25 green roof systems covering over 29,000 square feet on the Five Borough Building rooftop to feature different types and depths of growing medium and plant selection. Dear Friends; The NYC Green Infrastructure Plan, released in September 2010, proposed an innovative ap- proach for cost-effective and sustainable stormwater management. A major part of this plan is our commitment to manage the equivalent of an inch of rainfall on ten percent of the impervious areas in combined sewer watersheds by 2030. To that end, DEP is prepared to spend $1.5 bil- lion to construct green infrastructure projects across the city. Yet public investment alone will not achieve our water quality goals, or our desired recreation and development opportunities. Some of the most cost-effective opportunities are represented by new construction and devel- opment, when stormwater source controls can be easily included in designs and built at a frac- tion of the cost of retrofitting existing buildings.

Genomic approaches can be used for comparative studies of major repeats in any group of genomes, regardless of their size and complexity. Such studies are particularly fruitful in large genomes, and useful mainly in crop plants where they provide a rich source of molecular markers or information on indispensable genomic components (e.g., telomeres, centromeres, or ribosomal RNA genes). Surprisingly, in Allium species, a comprehensive comparative study of repeats is lacking. Here we provide such a study of two economically important species, Allium cepa (onion), and A. sativum (garlic), and their distantly related A.

  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

  • NEW PLANT SELECTIONS for 2021 ANNUALS Year of the Sunflower the Sunflower Is One of the Most Popular Genera of Flowers to Grow in Your Garden
    NEW PLANT SELECTIONS FOR 2021 ANNUALS Year of the Sunflower The Sunflower is one of the most popular genera of flowers to grow in your garden. First-time to experienced gardeners gravitate to these bold, easy to grow flowers. Sunflowers originated in the Americas and domestic seeds dating back to 2100 BC have been found in Mexico. Native Americans grew sunflowers as a crop, and explorers eventually brought the flowers to Europe in the 1500s. Over the next few centuries, sunflowers became increasingly popular on the European and Asian continent, with Russian farmers growing over 2 million acres in the early 19th century (most of which was used to manufacture sunflower oil). How to Grow and Care for Sunflowers: Sunflower seeds can be direct sown after the risk of frost has passed or started indoors. Seeds should be sown ¼” to ½” deep and kept moist. Taller, larger sunflower varieties have a large taproot to keep them rooted and do not do well when they are transplanted so direct sowing of those varieties is recommended. Choose a site, or a container, in full sun, with average fertility and good drainage. https://ngb.org/year-of-the-sunflower/ Proven Winners 2021 Annual of the Year – Supertunia Mini Vista® Pink Star Meet the newest star in our annual lineup!

In recent years, intensive research has been carried out regarding the antiviral activity of plant metabolites that could be used for the preservation of fresh food, because they are safer for consumption when compared to synthetic chemicals. Plant prepara- tions with proven antimicrobial activity differ in their chemical compositions, which significantly affects their biological activity. Our review aimed to present the results of research related to the characteristics, applicability, and mechanisms of the action of various plant-based preparations and metabolites against norovirus. New strategies to combat intestinal viruses are necessary, not only to ensure food safety and reduce infections in humans but also to lower the direct health costs associated with them.

Abstract The Tulula Wetlands Mitigation Bank, the first wetlands mitigation bank in the Blue Ridge Province of North Carolina, was created to compensate for losses resulting from highway projects in western North Carolina. The overall objective for the Tulula Wetlands Mitigation Bank has been to restore the functional and structural characteristics of the wetlands. Specific ecological restoration objectives of this Phase I study included: 1) reestablishing site hydrology by realigning the stream channel and filling drainage ditches; 2) recontouring the floodplain by removing spoil that resulted from creation of the golf ponds and dredging of the creek; 3) improving breeding habitat for amphibians by constructing vernal ponds; and 4) reestablishing floodplain and fen plant communities.

  • GIANT ULLEUNG CELERY Stephen Barstow1, Malvik, March 2020
    GIANT ULLEUNG CELERY 1 Stephen Barstow , Malvik, March 2020 Scientific name: Dystaenia takesimana Carrot family (Apiaceae) English: Seombadi, Sobadi, Dwaejipul, giant Ulleung celery, Korean pig-plant, wild celery, giant Korean celery Korean: 섬바디, 드와지풀 Norwegian: Ulleung kjempeselleri Swedish: Ullungloka, Vulkanloka The genus Dystaenia belongs to the carrot family or umbellifers (Apiaceae) and consists of two perennial species, one is a Japanese endemic (Dystaenia ibukiensis), and the other is endemic to a small island, Ulleung-do in Korea (Dystaenia takesimana). Genetic analysis (Pfosser et al., 2005) suggests that the larger D. takesimana evolved from D. ibukiensis rather than vice versa. The specific epithet takesimana is according to one reference to Takeshima Islet, which is disputed with the Japanese. Campanula takesimana is apparently found there. However, Takeshima island is also an alternative name for Ulleung-do, so this may be a misunderstanding. That Ulleung-do is Takeshima is confirmed on the following web site from the Oki Islands off Japan http://www.oki-geopark.jp/en/flowers-calendar/summer where it is stated that Dystaenia takesimana is also found there and is critically endangered: “This plant was designated as Cultural Property of Ama Town in 2012. It has only been discovered on the two isolated islands of Ama Town of the Oki Islands (Nakanoshima Island) and Ulleung-do Island of South Korea. It can be seen on the Akiya Coast in Nakanoshima Island. It is called Takeshima- shishiudo, as Ulleung-do was referred to as Takeshima” (see the map in Figure 1 for places mentioned here). Ulleung-do is a rocky steep-sided volcanic island some 120 km east of the coast of South Korea, the highest peak reaching 984m.
