A Study Of The Vegetation Of Northeastern Arizona, Herbert Christian Hanson Jan 1924

A Study Of The Vegetation Of Northeastern Arizona, Herbert Christian Hanson

University Studies (University of Nebraska): Papers

The State of Arizona is marked by a great series of cliffs that extend from the mouth of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado River in the northwestern part of the state southeastward into New Mexico. This line of cliffs, rising 1000 to 4000 feet above the desert plains forms the southwestern and southern boundary of the great physiographic province called the Colorado Plateaus. It is roughly circular and includes northeastern Arizona, northwestern New Mexico, western Colorado, and a large part of Utah. This province is subdivided by a number of deep canyons and high cliffs into numerous plateaus. The …

The Storage And Use Of Soil Moisture. Report Of Experimental Substation, North Platte, Nebraska, W. W. Burr Jul 1914

The Storage And Use Of Soil Moisture. Report Of Experimental Substation, North Platte, Nebraska, W. W. Burr

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

The profitable cultivation of the non-irrigable lands in west central and western Nebraska is limited by the amount and efficient use of the precipitation. There are tracts of land in the sand hills and minor tracts of badly worn heavier soils where the need of soil fertility is becoming evident. But, in the main, the great problem at present is not one of soil fertility, but of how to get enough water to make use of the fertility now present. The rainfall of this section, which varies from an actual shortage to seldom more than a meager sufficiency, makes it …

Report Of The Geologist, Erwin Hinckley Barbour Jan 1896

Report Of The Geologist, Erwin Hinckley Barbour

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications

THE PROBLEM OF OUR SOILS AND SOIL MOISTURE.

The soil survey of the state, which was begun by the author in November of 1892, has progressed to the point where it might be considered finished. That is, one or more samples of soils have been taken from every distinct soil region in the state-in fact, most of the separate counties are represented, and mechanical analyses of many of these have already been made. However, in consideration of the size of our counties, the work will not be declared complete until each is represented in the state museum by soil prisms …

The Aerosphere As A Network Connector Of Organisms And Their Diseases, Jeremy D. Ross, Eli S. Bridge, Diann J. Prosser, John Y. Takekawa Dec 200

The Aerosphere As A Network Connector Of Organisms And Their Diseases, Jeremy D. Ross, Eli S. Bridge, Diann J. Prosser, John Y. Takekawa

United States Geological Survey: Staff Publications

Aeroecological processes, especially powered flight of animals, can rapidly connect biological communities across the globe. This can have profound consequences for evolutionary diversification, energy and nutrient transfers, and the spread of infectious diseases. The latter is of particular consequence for human populations, since migratory birds are known to host diseases which have a history of transmission into domestic poultry or even jumping to human hosts. In this chapter, we present a scenario under which a highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) strain enters North America from East Asia via postmolting waterfowl migration. We use an agent-based model (ABM) to simulate the …
