Book Terrestrial Vegetation and Soils Monitoring Protocol and Standard Operating Procedures

Download or read book Terrestrial Vegetation and Soils Monitoring Protocol and Standard Operating Procedures written by National Park Service and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The core mission of the National Park Service (NPS), as outlined in the agency's 1916 Organic Act, is to protect and conserve natural and cultural resources for future generations. Responding to criticism that it lacked basic knowledge of natural resources within parks, the NPS initiated the Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) Program to detect longterm changes in physical and biological resources (NPS 1992). Parks with signifi cant natural res ources were assigned to one of 32 monitoring networks, each based on ecological similarity and geographic proximity. Each network was charged with developing a monitoring program capable of detecting long-term changes in physical and biological resources within each network.

Download or read book Southwestern Desert Resources written by William L. Halvorson and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2023-01-17 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The southwestern deserts stretch from southeastern California to west Texas and then south to central Mexico. The landscape of this region is known as basin and range topography featuring to “sky islands” of forest rising from the desert lowlands which creates a uniquely diverse ecology. The region is further complicated by an international border, where governments have caused difficulties for many animal populations. This book puts a spotlight on individual research projects which are specific examples of work being done in the area and when they are all brought together, to shed a general light of understanding the biological and cultural resources of this vast region so that those same resources can be managed as effectively and efficiently as possible. The intent is to show that collaborative efforts among federal, state agency, university, and private sector researchers working with land managers, provides better science and better management than when scientists and land managers work independently.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Geologic Monitoring is a practical, nontechnical guide for land managers, educators, and the public that synthesizes representative methods for monitoring short-term and long-term change in geologic features and landscapes. A prestigious group of subject-matter experts has carefully selected methods for monitoring sand dunes, caves and karst, rivers, geothermal features, glaciers, nearshore marine features, beaches and marshes, paleontological resources, permafrost, seismic activity, slope movements, and volcanic features and processes. Each chapter has an overview of the resource; summarizes features that could be monitored; describes methods for monitoring each feature ranging from low-cost, low-technology methods (that could be used for school groups) to higher cost, detailed monitoring methods requiring a high level of expertise; and presents one or more targeted case studies."--Publisher's description.
