  • Avalanche Hazard Investigations, Zoning, and Ordinances, Utah, Part 2
    International Snow Science Workshop Avalanche Hazard Investigations, Zoning, and Ordinances, Utah, Part 2 David A. Scroggin, Jack Johnson Company L. Darlene Batatian, P.G., Mountain Land Development ABSTRACT: The Wasatch Mountains of Utah are known as home to the 2002 Winter Olympics as well as having an abundance of avalanche history and avalanche hazard terrain that threatens ski areas, highways, and backcountry. Avalanche professionals historically have been drawn to and/or produced from this region resulting in an abundance of publications and research. Still, the subject of avalanche zoning continues to be neglected by developers and governmental approval agencies at communities encroaching on the foothills of the Bonneville Shoreline into avalanche terrain not previously developed. The first and only avalanche hazard ordinance adopted by a county (Scroggin/Batatian, ISSW 2004) is now being challenged by developers. While geologists continue to improve natural hazards mapping for earthquakes, landslides, and debris flows, avalanche hazards have not been included. This presentation will present a slide show and computer terrain analysis of recent large avalanches that have dropped over 5000 vertical feet to existing and proposed development areas as well as inspire a discussion on ways to address the problem both physically and politically. Potential solutions and ways to identify how to assist developers and governmental agencies will be presented. KEYWORDS: Avalanche Zoning, Ordinance, Governmental Approvals, Utah, 1.

  • 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.

ALPINE BIRD COMMUNITIES OF WESTERN NORTH AMERICA: IMPLICATIONS FOR MANAGEMENT AND RESEARcH!/ Clait E. Braun Wildlife Researcher Colorado Division of Wildlife, Research Center, 317 West Prospect Street, Fort Collins, Colorado 80526 ABSTRACT The avifauna of alpine regions of western North America is notably depauperate. Average community size is normally 3 to 4 although 5 species may consistently breed and nest above treeline. Only 1 species is a year around resident and totally dependent upon alpine habitats. Seasonal habitat preferences of the breeding avifauna are identified and the complexity of the processes and factors influencing alpine regions are reviewed. Management problems are discussed and research opportunities are identified. KEYWORDS: alpine ecosystem, habitat, avifauna, management, western North America. INTRODUCTION Alpine ecosystems occur in most of the high mountain cordilleras of western North America. Alpine, as used in this paper, refers to the area above treeline where habitats are characterized by short growing seasons, low temperatures and high winds. The term "tundra" is frequently used to describe these habitats but is more properly used in connection with arctic areas north of the limit of forest growth (Hoffmann and Taber 1967). While use of the terms "alpine tundra" and "arctic tundra" is common in designating above treeline (alpine) and northern lowland areas (arctic), the terminology of Billings (1979) is preferred. Likewise, lumping of alpine and arctic ecosystems into the "tundra biome" (see Kendeigh 1961) is not really feasible because of the extreme differences in radiation, moisture, topography, photo­ period, presence or absence of permafrost, etc.

    1 Construction and Verification of a Wasatch Front Community Velocity Model: Collaborative Research with San Diego State University and the University of Utah Final Technical Report Harold Magistrale Jim Pechmann Kim Olsen San Diego State University University of Utah Award numbers 05HQGR0006 and 05HQGR0011 06HQGR0009 and 06HQGR0012 2 Introduction. A fundamental problem in assessing seismic hazard from an active fault zone is determining the distribution, amplitude, frequency characteristics, and duration of strong ground motion from potential future earthquakes. This task becomes more difficult when accounting for the influence of 3D geologic structures, such as sediment-filled basins. The population of Utah is concentrated in such basins at the foot of the Wasatch Front, with 40% of the population residing in the Salt Lake basin. The Wasatch Front is formed by the active, normal Wasatch fault, the most prominent potential source of future large earthquakes in the area. Evaluation of the seismic hazard requires numerical ground motion simulations to quantify the contribution of deep basin structure and shallow site conditions to ground motions. A key requirement to perform these simulations is the availabilty of a 3D Wasatch Front community seismic velocity model (CVM). With NEHRP support we have developed an initial version of the community velocity model. The CVM has been developed in consultation with the Utah Ground-Shaking Working Group (UGSWG), a NEHRP-supported effort spearheaded by the Utah Geological Survey (UGS). CVM Construction Method. In creating the Wasatch Front CVM, we followed the method that Magistrale et al. (2000) used to construct the SCEC southern California CVM. Both models consist of detailed, rule-based representations of the major populated sediment-filled basins, embedded in a 3D crust, over a variable depth Moho, over upper mantle velocities.

STRUCTURE OF ALPINE PLANT COMMUNITIES NEAR KING'S PEAK, UINTA MOUNTAINS, UTAH George M. Briggs' and James A. MacMahon- Abstract.- a study was made at 18 sites with elevations between 3512 and 3768 m in the Uinta Mountains, Utah. Sites were small in extent but typified vegetation patterns found in the Uintas. Standing crop, species compo- sition (based on dry weight), and values for several physical parameters were determined at each site. Simple linear regressions performed between the various biotic and abiotic characters revealed significant relationships between the characteristics of rocks visible at the surface (the number, size, and variation in size) and vegetation cover. This relationship was probably due to the burial of rocks as a region became vegetated. Bray and Curtis ordinations per- formed on the indicated data that there were several factors which influenced the species composition but that no single factor dictated the vegetational pattern.
