Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book has been designed to serve as a natural resources engineering reference book as well as a supplemental textbook. This volume is part of the Handbook of Environmental Engineering series, an incredible collection of methodologies that study the effects of resources and wastes in their three basic forms: gas, solid, and liquid. It complements two other books in the series including "Natural Resources and Control Processes" and "Environmental and Natural Resources Engineering". Together they serve as a basis for advanced study or specialized investigation of the theory and analysis of various natural resources systems. The purpose of this book is to thoroughly prepare the reader for understanding the topics of global warming, climate change, glacier melting, salmon protection, village-driven latrines, engineers without borders (USA), surface water quality analysis, electrical and electronic wastes treatment, water quality control, tidal rivers and estuaries, geographic information systems, remote sensing applications, water losses investigations, wet infrastructure, lake restoration, acidic water control, biohydrogen production, mixed culture dark anaerobic fermentation, industrial waste recycle, agricultural waste recycle, recycled adsorbents, heavy metals removal, magnetic technology, recycled biohydrogen materials, lignocellulosic biomass, extremely halotolerant bacterial communities, salt pan and salt damaged soil. The chapters provide information on some of the most innovative and ground-breaking advances in resources conversation, protection, recycling, and reuse from a panel of esteemed experts.
Download or read book Golden winged Warbler Ecology Conservation and Habitat Management written by Henry M. Streby and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-10-26 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Golden-winged Warblers (Vermivora chrysoptera) are migratory songbirds that breed in temperate North America, primarily in the Great Lakes region with remnant populations throughout the Appalachian Mountains, and winter in Central and northern South America. Their breeding range has contracted dramatically in the Appalachian Mountains and many populations have dramatically declined, likely due to habitat loss, competition and interbreeding with Blue-winged Warblers (Vermivora pinus), andglobal climate change.. As a result of population declines in much of the eastern portion of their breeding range, Golden-winged Warblers are listed as endangered or threatened in 10 U.S. states and in Canada and have been petitioned for protection under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. Published in collaboration with and on behalf of The American Ornithological Society, this volume in the highly-regarded Studies in Avian Biology series compiles extensive, current research on Golden-winged Warblers and summarizes what is known and identifies many remaining unknowns, providing a wealth of peer-reviewed science on which future research and listing decisions can be based.

Download or read book Tropical Community Tree Guide written by Kelaine E. Vargas and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even as they increase the beauty of our surroundings, trees provide us with a great many ecosystem services, incl. air quality improvement, energy conservation, stormwater interception, and carbon dioxide reduction. These benefits must be weighed against the costs of maintaining trees, including planting, pruning, irrigation, admin., pest control, liability, cleanup, and removal. This report presents benefits and costs for representative small, medium, and large trees in the Tropical region based on research carried out in Honolulu, Hawaii. Average annual net benefits increase with tree size and differ based on location:. Two hypothetical examples of planting projects are described to illustrate how the data in this guide can be adapted to local uses.

Book excerpt: The Indiana bat, Myotis sodalis, is classified by the Department of Interior as an endangered species. In developing a plan that will enable the recovery of the bat from its endangered predicament, an extensive search was made for literature concerning the species. This compilation is intended as an aid to biologists and conservationists interested in the animal and its habitats; it is hoped the bibliography will serve as a directory to available information and assist in research efforts on the animal. An attempt has been made to include reports and papers dealing with all aspects of the species, and, therefore, a number of papers included that have not been published. Each numbered item in the bibliography has been read and its contents indexed and cross referenced by subject.

Download or read book Cerulean Warbler Status Assessment written by Paul B. Hamel and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-08-16 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cerulean warbler, Dendroica cerulea (Wilson), is a wood warbler in the Subfamily Parulinae of the Family Emberizidae, Order Passeriformes. No controversial or unsettled issues exist in the taxonomy of this bird. The numbers of cerulean warblers are declining at rates comparable to the most precipitous rates documented among North American birds by the cooperative Breeding Bird Survey. Recent evidence suggests that events on breeding, stopover, and wintering grounds are implicated in this decline. However, no detailed life history study of the species exists. This status assessment is an attempt to assemble what is known of the species into a form that will enable biologists in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to make a decision on whether or not to propose listing of the species under the Endangered Species Act. The report will also help the Service and others establish priorities for monitoring; research; and habitat protection, restoration, and management that will conserve this species. Cerulean warbler is a small, neotropical migratory bird that weighs approximately 8-10 grams, and has relatively long, pointed wings and a short tail. All plumages have two white wing bars and white tail spots. Males have streaked backs in all plumages; females do not. Males in breeding plumage are blue above, white below, with a blueblack neck ring. Females in breeding plumage are bluish green above, white below washed with yellow, with a white or yellowish line over the eye. Young birds are similar to the adult females but greener. Cerulean warblers feed primarily on insects throughout the year. Open-cup nests are placed in the canopy of forest trees where the birds raise usually a single brood. Clutch size is usually 3-4 eggs. Adult and juvenile mortality rates are unknown. The longevity record is at least 6 years. Only 1 of 1399 banded individuals has been encountered later away from the original capture locality. Conventional wisdom about habitat for cerulean warblers is that the birds breed in large tracts of deciduous forest having large trees and an open understory. These tracts may be in upland or bottomland situations. Migratory and winter season habitats are poorly known. Cerulean warblers breed in eastern North America primarily in the Ohio and Mississippi River valleys. The range generally extends from the eastern Great Plains, north to Minnesota; east to Massachusetts; and south to North Carolina and Louisiana. During migration the birds pass through the southern U.S., across the Gulf of Mexico to the highlands of Central America, and on to South America. They winter in the lower elevations of the subtropical zone of the eastern slope of the Andes and other mountains in northern South America. Historical data on the occurrence and abundance of the species are sparse and do not permit estimation of total numbers. However, it is clear that this species was a conspicuous and abundant bird throughout the Ohio and Mississippi River valleys in the past century. Currently the birds are much less numerous in areas where formerly they were abundant. The North American Breeding Bird Survey suggests that, during the past 30 years, the population has declined at an average annual rate of approximately 4%. Summaries of the Breeding Bird Survey, Breeding Bird Census, Breeding Bird Atlas, conservation status, and other information pertinent to individual nations, states, and provinces are presented for each political division within the range of the species. Current numbers and distribution of the species are such that an adequate summary of occurrence by land ownership categories cannot be prepared, other than to state that the birds are found on public lands, industrial forest lands, and other private lands. One study found the birds more frequently on public than on other land ownerships.
