  • Author : Jennifer Birch
  • Publisher : AltaMira Press
  • Release : 2012-12-27
  • ISBN : 0759121028
  • Pages : 209 pages

Download or read book The Mantle Site written by Jennifer Birch and published by AltaMira Press. This book was released on 2012-12-27 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first detailed analysis of a completely excavated northern Iroquoian community, a sixteenth-century ancestral Wendat village on the north shore of Lake Ontario. The site resulted from the coalescence of multiple small villages into one well-planned and well-integrated community. Jennifer Birch and Ronald F. Williamson frame the development of this community in the context of a historical sequence of site relocations. The social processes that led to its formation, the political and economic lives of its inhabitants, and their relationships to other populations in northeastern North America are explored using multiple scales of analysis. This book is key for those interested in the history and archaeology of eastern North America, the social, political, and economic organization of Iroquoian societies, the archaeology of communities, and processes of settlement aggregation.

Book Adaptive Environmental Management

Download or read book Adaptive Environmental Management written by Catherine Allan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-06-05 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adaptive management is the recommended means for continuing ecosystem management and use of natural resources, especially in the context of ‘integrated natural resource management’. Conceptually, adaptive management is simply learning from past management actions to improve future planning and management. However, adaptive management has proved difficult to achieve in practice. With a view to facilitating better practice, this new book presents lessons learned from case studies, to provide managers with ready access to relevant information. Cases are drawn from a number of disciplinary fields, including management of protected areas, watersheds and farms, rivers, forests, biodiversity and pests. Examples from Australia, New Zealand, the USA, Canada, the UK and Europe are presented at a variety of scales, from individual farms, through regional projects, to state-wide planning. While the book is designed primarily for practitioners and policy advisors in the fields of environmental and natural resource management, it will also provide a valuable reference for students and researchers with interests in environmental, natural resource and conservation management.

Book Application of a Dichotomous Key to the Classification of Sea Lamprey Marks on Great Lakes Fish

Download or read book Application of a Dichotomous Key to the Classification of Sea Lamprey Marks on Great Lakes Fish written by Mark P. Ebener and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document augments the dichotomous key crated by Ebener et al. (2003) with photographs taken during the 2002 and 2003 workshops, and it is intended to help fishery agencies implement the King and Edsall (1979) protocol for classifying sea lamprey marks. Their illustrations represented the "idealized" types and stages of sea lamprey marks in comparison with the more complicated marks often observed in the field. We combined the original King and Edsall (1979) photographic illustrations with photographs made at the five workshops to create this sequel to the 1979 field guide.

Book The Reluctant Twitcher

Download or read book The Reluctant Twitcher written by Richard Pope and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2009-09-07 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human side of birding comes to the fore in The Reluctant Twitcher, a serious yet humorous account of birds and birding and the art of chasing rarities. Richard Pope, a lifelong birder, had successfully avoided this latter pursuit for many years but capitulated in 2007 when he embarked on his "Big Year," the object being to record at least three hundred birds in Ontario within that calendar period. Almost instantly, a relatively normal birdwatcher morphed into a "twitcher," albeit reluctantly, pursuing rare species of birds from Rainy River to the Ottawa and well beyond his wildest expectations. Though it was a challenge that was not without trials and disappointments, Pope describes all his adventures with self-deprecating humour. Not just another book on birding, Pope's unique approach is supported by an array of exceptional colour photographs.

Margot Fassler's Music in the Medieval West imaginatively reconstructs the repertoire of the Middle Ages by drawing on a wide range of sources. In addition to highlighting the ceremonial and dramatic functions of medieval music (both sacred and secular), she pays special attention to the exchange of musical ideas, the development of musical notation and other methods of transmission, and the role of women in musical culture. Western Music in Context: A Norton History comprises six volumes of moderate length, each written in an engaging style by a recognized expert. Authoritative and current, the series examines music in the broadest sense—as sounds notated, performed, and heard—focusing not only on composers and works, but also on broader social and intellectual currents.

Book Music in the Nineteenth Century

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nineteenth-century music in its cultural, social, and intellectual contexts. Music in the Nineteenth Century examines the period from the Congress of Vienna in 1815 to the advent of Modernism in the 1890s. Frisch traces a complex web of relationships involving composers, performers, publishers, notated scores, oral traditions, audiences, institutions, cities, and nations. The book's central themes include middle-class involvement in music, the rich but elusive concept of Romanticism, the cult of virtuosity, and the ever-changing balance between musical and commercial interests. The final chapter considers the sound world of nineteenth-century music as captured by contemporary witnesses and early recordings. Western Music in Context: A Norton History comprises six volumes of moderate length, each written in an engaging style by a recognized expert. Authoritative and current, the series examines music in the broadest sense--as sounds notated, performed, and heard--focusing not only on composers and works, but also on broader social and intellectual currents.

Book A Framework for Guiding Habitat Rehabilitation in Great Lakes Areas of Concern

Download or read book A Framework for Guiding Habitat Rehabilitation in Great Lakes Areas of Concern written by Canadian Wildlife Service and published by Minister of Public Works and Government Services. This book was released on 1998 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The framework presented in this document has been developed for teams and committees working to rehabilitate ecosystems in the 16 Areas of Concern (AOCs) across the Great Lakes basin. It is designed to guide the choice of restoration targets that relate to fish and wildlife habitat and populations, and provides a method to prioritize locations for wetland, riparian, and forested habitat rehabilitation projects across a watershed or other landscape unit. Separate sections cover habitat guidelines for wetlands, riparian areas, and forests; additional riparian parameters are given in an additional section. The appendices present results of habitat analyses for four specific AOCs, a framework for setting targets for fish community management targets, a list of forest bird species breeding in southern Ontario, and highlights from an assessment of forest bird community integrity.
