Chapter 2 Inventory of Facilities
Chapter 2 – Inventory of Facilities Chapter 2 Inventory of Facilities One of the initial tasks in the preparation of an airport master plan is the collection of information on the condition of existing facilities and services. This inventory of data is necessary to not only evaluate the physical attributes of airside and landside infrastructure, but also to complete subsequent study tasks, such as demand/capacity analyses and the determination of facility requirements. Information collected focuses on the use, size, quantity, type, area, operational intent, and other characteristics of the airside and landside components of an airport. Typical categories of information that are collected include history, physical infrastructure, regional setting, surrounding land uses, environmental features, historical aviation activity, business affairs, and socioeconomic demographics of the surrounding community. Several sources of information were referenced to compile a comprehensive database of the facilities and services at the University Park Airport (Airport). These included, but were not limited to, the previous Airport Master Plan, recent National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documents, the Airport website, the Terminal Area Master Plan, the Land Use Plan, and the Airport Layout Plan (ALP). In addition, historical enplanements, aircraft operations, based aircraft, aircraft fleet mix, enplaned cargo, and automobile parking data were obtained from Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) databases and Airport records. Finally, an on-site visual

Open P Hunt ENT MS Thesis.Pdf
The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Entomology EFFECT OF WEATHER VARIABLES ON DECOMPOSITION AND TIME OF DEATH ESTIMATION IN TWO HABITATS IN CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA A Thesis in Entomology by Patricia L. Hunt 2010 Patricia L. Hunt Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science August 2010 The thesis of Patricia L. Hunt was reviewed and approved* by the following: Ke Chung Kim Professor of Entomology Thesis Advisor Dennis Calvin Professor of Entomology James Marden Professor of Biology Gary Felton Professor of Entomology Head of the Department of Entomology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT The goal of this thesis was to look at the application of forensic entomology in Central Pennsylvania by looking at the meteorological factors involved in post-mortem interval estimation (PMI) during both the summer and winter months. Additionally, the applicability of site-specific weather modeling was explored to see how accuracy in PMI estimation can be improved by technology. It was found that site-specific weather modeling does improve the accuracy of PMI estimations over temperatures recorded at the nearest government weather station. Along with this finding, it became evident that ambient temperature is not the only consideration in insect development associated with decomposition. Soil and maggot mass temperature are also important factors in obtaining greater accuracy in PMI estimations as well as wintertime survival of larvae. During the winter months, it was found that there are differences in decomposition pattern and insect colonization patterns when comparing both wintertime environment (open field vs. deciduous forest) and time of year (winter vs.
