This book was released on 1996 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preliminary evidence of active bed transport at the Cornfield Shoals Disposal Site (CSDS) prompted the National Marine Fisheries Service and Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection to express concern about possible sediment transport towards, and impact on, shellfish beds located north of the site, north of Long Sand Shoal. This preliminary study was designed to determine if the field-observed transport at the disposal site is consistent with the predicted east-west transport pattern found in the historical record. This investigation at CSDS between July 1991 and May 1992 provided strong circumstantial evidence for active bed transport. his study included a series of bathymetric surveys, current meter suspended sediment data collection, and REMOTS(R) photography of the sediment-water interface. The circumstantial evidence for active bed transport included shifts in areas of sediment accumulation and erosion, increased suspended sediment deposits at the sediment-water interface. In general, active bed transport appears to follow the historical east-west current direction, and the extent of the transport depends on the type of material. The actual direction and magnitude of active bed transport apparently depend on local topography and the nature of materials being transported. Sediment accumulated over a broad area near the disposal points of sand hydraulically dredged from the Connecticut River in September 1991. Subsequent bathymetric surveys showed apparent movement of this material to the west. A clearly defined deposit formed at the disposal point for fine-grained material mechanically dredged from North Cove, Connecticut.

Book American Military History Volume 1

Download or read book American Military History Volume 1 written by Army Center of Military History and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-05 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Military History provides the United States Army-in particular, its young officers, NCOs, and cadets-with a comprehensive but brief account of its past. The Center of Military History first published this work in 1956 as a textbook for senior ROTC courses. Since then it has gone through a number of updates and revisions, but the primary intent has remained the same. Support for military history education has always been a principal mission of the Center, and this new edition of an invaluable history furthers that purpose. The history of an active organization tends to expand rapidly as the organization grows larger and more complex. The period since the Vietnam War, at which point the most recent edition ended, has been a significant one for the Army, a busy period of expanding roles and missions and of fundamental organizational changes. In particular, the explosion of missions and deployments since 11 September 2001 has necessitated the creation of additional, open-ended chapters in the story of the U.S. Army in action. This first volume covers the Army's history from its birth in 1775 to the eve of World War I. By 1917, the United States was already a world power. The Army had sent large expeditionary forces beyond the American hemisphere, and at the beginning of the new century Secretary of War Elihu Root had proposed changes and reforms that within a generation would shape the Army of the future. But world war-global war-was still to come. The second volume of this new edition will take up that story and extend it into the twenty-first century and the early years of the war on terrorism and includes an analysis of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq up to January 2009.

Book High Tide in Tucson

Download or read book High Tide in Tucson written by Barbara Kingsolver and published by Harper Perennial. This book was released on 2003 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There is no one quite like Barbara Kingsolver in contemporary literature," raves the Washington Post Book World, and it is right. She has been nominated three times for the ABBY award, and her critically acclaimed writings consistently enjoy spectacular commercial success as they entertain and touch her legions of loyal fans. In High Tide in Tucson, she returnsto her familiar themes of family, community, the common good and the natural world. The title essay considers Buster, a hermit crab that accidentally stows away on Kingsolver's return trip from the Bahamas to her desert home, and turns out to have manic-depressive tendencies. Buster is running around for all he's worth -- one can only presume it's high tide in Tucson. Kingsolver brings a moral vision and refreshing sense of humor to subjects ranging from modern motherhood to the history of private property to the suspended citizenship of human beings in the Animal Kingdom. Beautifully packaged, with original illustrations by well-known illustrator Paul Mirocha, these wise lessons on the urgent business of being alive make it a perfect gift for Kingsolver's many fans.
