Abstract:
This research aimed to identify the extent to which the costs of intangible drilling affect oil extraction under strategic reserves. To achieve this objective, the research used the descriptive analytical approach. The research also used the questionnaire method, as a research instrument, where, (41) questionnaire forms were distributed to a random sample of employees working at the Sudapet Company- Sudan in 2021. Using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences program (SPSS). The research has reached, the fact that the end of service indemnity is expensive, which causes the company to incur a huge amount of money. The research has also reached the fact that roads need pavement, and modern machineries are very expensive. Needless to say, that machineries and equipment consume much fuel. The research, on the other hand, recommended the guarding of oil fields by the national army to prevent theft. The research also recommended the preparation of maps and geological survey, and the building of residences for experts and employees in the area of oil fields. This is in addition to remove the natural obstacles such as trees, and rocks that hinder the performance of machineries and equipment.

Abstract:
Abstract Continuous rock core was collected for 1764 m (5786’) on the Pohakuloa Army Training base near the center of the big island of Hawaii. The core traverses basaltic lava flows from the volcano's shield-building phase, and perched aquifers and higher temperature groundwaters were encountered. The collected samples record water-rock interactions of basaltic materials in a setting that may be a model for groundwater interactions on Mars. We collected visible and infrared point spectra of materials in the lowest portion of the core, where alteration was noted to become more prominent. We identified three types of phyllosilicate spectral signatures and three types of zeolites. The phyllosilicates show similarity to those identified on Mars using data from the Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM). Based on the field survey, 25 depths were selected for sampling and petrographic analysis of thin sections. The spectral data and thin section work have a strong agreement in the types of materials identified by the two different techniques. Both the spectral and petrographic data indicate low to moderate temperature geothermal alteration occurred in the lower half of the core. The field spectra are a useful reconnaissance tool for selecting mineralogic diversity for subsequent higher resolution and more time-consuming laboratory analysis.

Abstract:
The state-of-the-art in airborne coastal mapping and charting technology is the Compact Hydrographic Airborne Rapid Total Survey (CHARTS) system. CHARTS is the U.S. Naval Oceanographic Office program name for an Optech, Inc. SHOALS 3000T20-E. CHARTS comprises a 3 kHz bathymetric lidar, a 20 kHz topographic lidar, a DuncanTech DT4000 high-resolution digital camera, and a Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager(CASI)-1500. The integrated sensor suite has the capability to collect lidar bathymetry, lidar topography, RGB imagery, and hyperspectral imagery. Beyond these products, the diffuse attenuation coefficient and seafloor reflectance at multiple wavelengths may be estimated by combining information from the bathymetric lidar waveform and the hyperspectral imagery.The Joint Airborne Lidar Bathymetry Technical Center of Expertise (JALBTCX) specified development of the CHARTS system and currently manages its operations for Department of Defense customers. CHARTS data collection rate of 21 square nautical miles per survey hour enables rapid completion of large nautical charting work for the U.S. Naval Oceanographic Office. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers National Coastal Mapping Program uses CHARTS to collect engineering scale data for the entire U.S. coastline. JALBTCX continues to lead development in the field of airborne lidar and integrated technologies for coastal mapping and charting. Future research efforts include mining the individual data sets collected by CHARTS for information beyond elevation, combining data sets to further identify physical and environmental characteristics of the coastal zone, and integrating additional complementary sensors with CHARTS.

Abstract:
Abstract-The threat of pandemics and epidemics of dangerous and deadly diseases is very likely to occur in Indonesia. The spread of Covid-19 that is out of control and exceeds the capacity of the epidemic, and has made the status of the spread of Covid- 19 a pandemic outbreak. Pusziad CBRNE Company is a central-level implementing agency in the field of CBRNE. Biological threats increase and spread, such as in handling the Covid-19 pandemic, Pusziad CBRNE Company has limitations. Pusziad CBRNE Company's capability is not sufficient from the aspect of the organization, personnel resources, and equipment. This study analyzes how the strategy of Pusziad CBRNE Company in dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic with qualitative research and data collection through observation, interviews, and documentation. The occurrence of the Covid-19 pandemic that hit the world, including Indonesia with a fairly high death rate, is clear evidence of a biological threat. Biological threats in Indonesia are increasing evident with the development of bio-science and its supporting facilities in Indonesia as well as the opening up of bioterrorism actions. With increasing biological threats such as the Covid-19 pandemic, the role of Pusziad CBRNE Company becomes very important. Faced with the limitations of Pusziad CBRNE Company, the strategies that need to be suggested are reviewing the Pusziad CBRNE Company organization to be upgraded to a detachment or battalion, proposing optimal budget support, equipping special equipment for CBRNE, and increasing the human capacity resources of Pusziad CBRNE Company personnel. Therefore, against the backdrop of increasing perceptions of biological threats in Indonesia, Pusziad CBRNE Company needs to improve its organization, personnel capabilities, and equipment, so that Pusziad CBRNE Company has reliable capabilities supported by a proportional organization with professional personnel and sophisticated equipment.Keywords: Nuclear biology and chemistry (CBRNE), Biological Threats, Covid-19 Pandemic, Capabilities and Strategies

Abstract:
Technological advances have facilitated the ability of management to report finer sets of information in narrower time intervals (Kogan et al. 1999). Real-time reports are crucial for managerial decision making at all levels in a firm. The economic and technological feasibility of more frequent reporting has received increasing attention from the accounting profession and regulatory authorities. We attempt to shed light on the feasibility and receptiveness at the company level of more frequent financial reporting via a field study and a survey. Three publicly traded firms participated in our field study. The findings of our field study helped guide us in the development of our survey instrument. We used the survey instrument to examine our research questions. Our study expands the literature by (1) examining in-company accounting professionals' receptiveness toward availability of income statement or balance sheet accounts to external users on a more frequent basis than quarterly, (2) exploring factors (i.e., perceived usefulness, benefits/costs, economic reality, competitive disadvantage, and liability exposure) that affect in-company accounting professionals' receptiveness toward more frequent reporting, and (3) obtaining insights from in-company IT professionals on the technological feasibility of more frequent reporting (and comparing this finding with insights obtained from in-company accounting professionals).

Abstract:
Purpose: The aim of the chapter is to compare the declarations of local and international companies regarding the maintenance of sustainable development initiatives during acrisis. Design/methodology/approach: The article presents the results of a survey conducted in September 2020 on a sample of 500 enterprises located in Poland. Respondents were asked to declare if they will maintain or abandon sustainable development initiatives in a crisis situation. The examples presented a pandemic similar to the one caused by Covid-19, an economic crisis, or a significant decrease in company revenues. Findings: The research showed that the largest group of companies in acrisis situation will completely abandon their initiatives in the field of sustainable development. Another group will give up those initiatives that generate the highest cost. There are some small differences in responses of local and international companies. Companies with foreign entities in the ownership structure seems less likely to give up all initiatives in the field of sustainable development. International companies more often than local companies declare that they do not know which initiatives they will abandon and which will they keep. Research limitations/implications: Factors other than international involvement (e.g. company size, strategic approach to sustainable development) may have a decisive impact on decisions regarding the maintenance of sustainable development initiatives in acrisis. Originality and value: The chapter illustrates the approach to sustainable development by companies classified into various categories: local and international.

Abstract:
The aim of this work is to carry out an exploratory study on the situation of employee share ownership in Morocco in order to detect the effects induced by ownership on motivation, organizational involvement, and the intention to leave. To this end, the authors have used agency theory, which offers an interesting framework for analyzing the practice of employee share ownership, and they have proposed a synthesis of empirical work on the organizational effects of property. Subsequently, they set out their empirical approach in order to explain the progress of the field survey, which relates to the description of the situation of employee shareholding in Morocco. The results obtained confirm the empirical studies analyzed and show that employee share ownership improves the feeling of belonging to the company, motivation, and organizational involvement. On the other hand, ownership makes it possible to lower the departure intention of employee shareholders.

Full text
Abstract:
Many years before Charles Elton collected the detailed data on fur returns to The Hudson’s Bay Trading Company, or described the regular fluctuations in small mammal numbers, scientists and naturalists had observed and were proposing explanations for the cause of periodic crashes in numbers of red grouse known as “grouse disease.” MacDonald (1883) claimed “that it was more than eighty years since the alarm of grouse disease was sounded in this country,” implying that naturalists were starting to examine the phenomenon nearly 200 years ago. In 1873, The House of Commons established a Select Committee to consider the game laws of the United Kingdom and, since this had followed a year of particularly severe population collapse in red grouse numbers, they took exhaustive evidence on a wide range of possible causes of “grouse disease.” An examination of the letters in The Times and The Field shows that the debate over the cause of the population crashes was contentious and as heated as many of the recent debates over the causes of population cycles. Scientific studies were initiated by Cobbold (1873) who examined grouse killed during a population crash, published a pamphlet that described the presence of large numbers of “strongle worms,” and advocated the theory that the cause of grouse disease was wholly due to the presence of nematode worms. In 1905, the Board of Agriculture appointed a Committee of Inquiry on Grouse Disease to investigate the life history of the parasite and the causes of “grouse disease.” The extensive survey and detailed analysis was quite remarkable for the time, and was presented in a two-volume publication (Lovat 1911). The Committee surveyed grouse populations, undertook experiments and, after nearly 2000 dissections, came to the conclusion that “the strongyle worm, and the strongyle worm alone, is the immediate causa causans of adult ‘Grouse Disease.’“ The Principal Field Officer was E. A. Wilson, a gifted artist and scientist who was later appointed as the Scientific Director to Captain Scott’s Antarctic expedition on the Terra Nova. Unfortunately, Wilson never saw the production of the final report as he died with Scott during their return from the South Pole.

Full text
Abstract:
Large costs and lead-time losses are created by returned aluminum products - to a great extent unnecessarily. Much of the metal product complaints are due to visual surface defects. Today, the aluminum industry relies on several non-standardized classification systems for surface quality assessments which provides far too much scope for subjective and non-repeatable surface estimations. To challenge this situation, a common toolbox to describe and define surface quality in a more objective way needs to be developed. A first step towards such standardization is to speak the same language, thus this study is based on a state-of-the-art survey covering terminology and descriptions of surface defects in literature, and a round-robin assessment collecting terms used by employees at seven companies within the aluminum industry. The literature study showed that most attempts to catalog and categorized various types of defects on commercial aluminum extrusions are based on the origin of defects and how to prevent and/or reduce them, thus the vocabulary is production-oriented and most terms are not useful from the customers’ nor the designers’ point of view when coming to describe desired surface effect, i.e. perceived surface quality. The round-robin assessment confirmed the large variation of terminology used, and that defects were judged differently also within the same company due to experience and field of work. A common vocabulary is suggested to be based on the relationships between used expressions; from general terms at stages linked to consumers, designers and sale, tracing towards more technical terms the closer the stage where the origin of the defect can be found. This structure, in combination with e.g. manufacturing cost, is expected to guide customers towards more sustainable surface quality choices that, together with more consistent surface assessments along the production chain, is expected to strongly reduce unnecessary scrapping.

Abstract:
The paper reports the results of a quantitative, survey-based study which investigates the use of an IT supported knowledge management system (KMS) which is embedded in knowledge management framework in a large, global IT consulting company. The main findings are that the majority of the IT users are not familiar with the KMS framework. Still, the KMS is used by 3/4 of all respondents, but mainly to search for general information, but much less to participate in competence networks to develop shared knowledge assets. The KMS is not used as the primary repository and communication media for knowledge assets. The limited use is explained by the practitioners as being caused by lack of time and their perception of the KMS as a slow and poorly structured technical infrastructure. These and other findings are discussed with regard to the current understanding of knowledge management as presented by the literature in the field.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Well Integrity Monitoring provides means to protect the people, environment, reputation and assets of oil and gas operations globally. While being a vital tool for preventing safety and economic mishaps in oil and gas wells, it is also one of the primary responsibilities of the Production Engineer. Three examples of technological advancements in the area of real-time data monitoring and intelligent-field visualization systems, which have largely enhanced the capabilities of the Production Engineer to monitor Well Integrity parameters across large fields are presented. The real-time data monitoring and intelligent-field visualization system functions based on a feedback loop system, which continuously monitors well integrity parameters such as pressure, temperature, voltage and current. The output from the probes installed in the well are passed to a Central Processing Unit where the electrical signal is processed, converted to well integrity parameters and compared with set points. Deviation are recorded and anomalies are flagged off for prompt intervention. Continuous real-time monitoring of Annuli Pressure, Well Head Pressure and Voltage/Current led to timely identification of Well Head Casing Leak, Failed Well Head Valve and corroded casing respectively in the three cases studied. The most significant new finding is that anomalies in other cases typically take up to one year to identify due to less frequent integrity survey practice adopted in fields where the intelligent-field technology is non-existent. This is important because timely intervention made possible by real-time monitoring systems safeguards corporation assets, reputation and the environment. The implemented Intelligent Field Remote Surveillance and Monitoring System has shown its significance in optimizing well integrity solutions in large fields, protecting people, enabling prompt intervention and saving the environment. To achieve this target, collaboration within several departments and organizations is required within an oil company. As such, the concept can only be successful if it is part of the corporate vision and is driven at a high level in any company.

Full text
Abstract:
In this study, we simulate the flow and heat transfer during hot-wire anemometry and investigate its thermal behavior and physics using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tool. In this regard, we use the finite-volume method and solve the compressible Navier-Stokes equations numerically in slightly non-continuum flow fields. We do not use any slip flow model to include the transitional flow physics in our simulations. Using the CFD method, we simulate the flow over hot–wire and evaluate the uncertainty of CFD in thermal simulation of hot-wire in low transitional flow regimes. The domain sizes and the mesh distributions are carefully chosen to avoid boundary condition error appearances. Following the past researches, we do not take into account the conduction heat transfer passing through hot-wire mounting arms in our simulations. Imposing a fixed temperature condition at the face of hot-wire, we simulate the flow over and the heat transfer from hot-wire and calculate the convection heat transfer coefficient and the local Nusselt number values. To be sure of the accuracy of our CFD code, we simulate a number of similar test cases and compare our numerical solutions with the available numerical solutions and/or experimental data.

Abstract:
Product development is important more than ever for manufacturing firms. A well-designed performance measurement system can assess the impact of product development on the whole company. Such a system can also be utilized for motivating employees, especially product development staff. Naturally, a set of suitable product development measures can provide valuable information for managing the activities and continuous improvement of the product development process. In this paper, via our literature review, we first establish that “a suitable set of performance measures” to assess product development performance is not readily available. Then, we identified performance criteria for assessing product development process effectiveness based on competitive priorities (cost, quality, flexibility, delivery and innovation) followed by ANP analysis. Finally, using a two tier survey setting, the validity and reliability of the criteria set were ascertained, and field data for its (performance measure set) usage as an assessment tool for product development is demonstrated. The field study was conducted by participation of a sample of manufacturing companies in Turkey.

Abstract:
The fast paced lifestyle in the technologically advanced era, brings many challenges in the field of work-family balance. For a good business performance, customer satisfaction and a positive impact on the environment, it is important for a company to have satisfied employees. Many successful companies are aware that the key to having productive and satisfied employees is also to understand and promote workfamily balance. This awareness is slowly growing in Slovenian companies and therefore the acquisition of the Family-Friendly Company certificate has been actively pursued since 2006. With the help of the Family-Friendly Company certificate, companies are able to retain the best talents and gain the moral loyalty of employees. Based on the study of literature and previous research, the article presents the situation in the field of work-life balance in Slovenia. The results of a survey conducted in a selected company are presented in the following article. The results of the analysis showed that the employees of the studied company are on average satisfied with the familyfriendly measures and that there is a difference in the success of work-life balance according to gender. Based on the results, possible improvements in the studied area are also suggested.

The environmental policy of EU, acknowledged by the Economics Ministers in June 2001 meeting, establishes a set of priorities. The present paper deals with urgent demands in these fields, with attention on pollution decreasing/removal. A survey of European Topic Centre on Waste, based on partial data only, points out the risk of sewage and leachate contamination of subsoil and waterbed for 13500 landfills. The European Council, in the Directive 97/C_76/01, requests the member states to take the necessary measures to ensure, to fullest practicable extent, that old-landfills and polluting-sites should be rehabilitated. This request is specifically addressed, with the Microdrainage project, EVK4-CT-2002-30012, successfully achieved building the robotic prototype, properly operative from mid 2005. The paper presents the innovative developments undertaken by the project. A new drilling equipment is built, suited for autonomous operation, with fully automatic effectors and rods feeding and with multi-function boring/drilling head, to comply with complex work-task schedules. The mechanical architecture needs proper sophistication, to deal with rods supplying along the micro-tunnel, local buffering to complete the lay-down of a draining line, and mast feeding by the purposely designed arm. The system implementation, thereafter, tackles with the severe technical specifications for the micro-tunnel surroundings, and exacting performance requirements in rig levelling, mast attitude accuracy and work-task sequencing. By this project, the successful deployment of these enabling technologies helped in developing the novel robotic device, capable to solve the de-pollution requirements of the EU environmental policy.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives/Scope This paper examines the sand production management strategies practised by Carigali-PTTEPI Operating Company (CPOC) to minimize the impact of excessive sand production on the processing facilities and well integrity as sand production from producing wells continues to increase. Sudden well interruptions could jeopardise the daily production delivery hence require all risks to be mitigated at early stage includes risk from sand production. Methods, Procedures, Process Gas reservoirs in CPOC operated fields were developed with monobore completions without active sand control. CPOC adopts the passive sand management approach, where sand is allowed to be produced to surface and later managed on the top-side facilities. The objective is to manage the produced sand using existing facilities and minimize the process upset/downtime. CPOC Sand Production Management consists of two main parts, Monitoring and Remediation. Two types of monitoring are done: Sand Production Monitoring and Corrosion/Erosion Monitoring. Ultrasonic Sand Detector has been used as the main tool for Sand Production Monitoring. Ultrasonic Testing (UT) has been carried out for all production flowlines as part of Corrosion/Erosion monitoring. Effective monitoring has become the enabler for proactive remediation actions. The remediation focuses on two areas: minimize sand production from wells (via MSFR/MASR-Maximum Sand Free Rate/Maximum Allowable Sand Rate), carry out water shut off, sand failure analysis etc.) and improve the integrity and reliability of processing facilities through upgrading activities. Result, Observations, Conclusions The interpretation of sand production from Ultrasonic Sand Detector allows qualitative and quantitative assessments of sand production and operational instruction for flowing wells via MSFR/MASR. In addition, UT survey is used to estimate the flowline remaining life. Proactive remediation of topside equipment is done in a timely and effective manner using Ultrasonic Sand Detector's data together with other inspection data. CPOC has also upgraded several topside equipment to improve the efficiency of sand removal, equipment integrity and reliability. This topside upgrade includes main processing platform sand removal upgrade, slug catcher cleaning, flowline wrapping, etc. This multidisciplinary collaboration since 2014, which integrate the monitoring of sand production from the wellbore with remediation activities of the downstream processes, has allowed CPOC to safely operate and achieve production target without loss of containment. Novel/Additive Information The sand production management strategies practised by CPOC not only allows the company to safely operate and achieve production target, it also enables the use of "slimhole monobore" completion which is economical and practical well design without the need for conventional downhole sand control, and results in well cost of <10 MMUS. This type of field development and sand production management has become a standard technology in the Gulf of Thailand.

Abstract:
Background and Objective: It is practically impossible to find out an individual with a specific percentile for all the anthropometric dimensions. In traditional anthropometric compatibility evaluation, a large number of participants would be required to represent a specific percentile (say, 5th percentile) of different body dimensions. However, a user trial involving a large number of participants with intended percentile values is a tedious, time-consuming, and costly affair and in many cases not practically feasible. This paper presents a research strategy of how to validate the anthropometric compatibility of a physical mock-up by a small number of participants representing the extreme anthropometric variability of the target populations. Methodology: A case study on the user trial of a physical mock-up of a light armored vehicle (LAV) used by the Ethiopian army was carried out involving a few users from an ergonomic perspective. Following an anthropometric survey (32 variables) of Ethiopian army personnel (n =250 male), 12 key variables (06 dominant variables, 02 variables with less commonality, 03 variables with less correlation coefficient from their respective predictors, and one targeted variable ‘mass’) that account for the variability produced by the 32 original variables were identified using Principal Component Factor Analysis (PCFA) and regression analysis. Following this, Ethiopian army personnel who represent the boundary values (5th or/and 95th p values) of the identified key variables were identified from the targeted population. Thereafter, the compatibility testing (in terms of space occupancy, dimensional clearances, reaching distance, view field, operational activities, etc.) of the physical mock-ups were conducted with the identified subjects. Results: The 12 key variables found from PCFA and regression analysis were stature, sitting height, popliteal height, popliteal length, bideltoid breadth, hip breadth, elbow rest length, arm length, foot length, foot breadth, handbreadth, and mass. Total 07 army personnel were finally identified who represented the extreme measurement values (5th or/and 95th p values) of those key variables and were asked to volunteer for testing. Discussions: As demonstrated in the present study, it is possible to identify less number of key anthropometric variables that are representative of the overall anthropometric variability of the population by using PCFA and regression analysis. A minimal number of volunteers could be identified by using the extreme anthropometric values (5th or/and 95th p values) of the identified key variables. These volunteers could be deployed for user trials to ensure compatibility from an ergonomic perspective. Such an evaluation technique, involving less number of participants would confirm accommodating wide ranges of user populations as well as reduce the cost, time, and resources for physical trial.

Abstract:
Mubadala Petroleum (pipeline operator) responded to a pig stuck in a 312 km subsea gas pipeline. A bi-di pig was found to be stuck and after being rescued, the bi-di pig discs were found to be dented. An investigation and assessment are conducted to found what causes pig stuck, to solve the issue of a pig stuck, and to execute all the processes during pipeline operation as effectively and safest way as possible. The investigation started by defining what makes dented bi-di pigs, is an object inside the pipeline or pipeline deformation. A series of conformity techniques are applied by calculation to predict exact pig stuck location, using the backpressure method. A series of inspections were conducted from simple to complex way. From a smart pig that resulted from pig damage to side-scan sonar (SSS) inspection, and visual inspection at predicted location due to cost and time limit. The result is the investigation and assessment process to find dent location within 312 km seabed are executed in a time effective and cost reduced way, under 2 years for all activity for technical process and field execution duration. The sequence also escalating from lowest cost and easiest methods (engineering calculation) to the highest and more complex methods and cost (inspection and survey). The accurate result of prediction confirmed by the dent location and damages at KP 111.89 and 30 meters water depth. The investigation methodology also complies with the requirement of regulation, company specs, standard/code, and engineering best practices. The benefits of this paper are as a reference to conduct series of pipeline damage investigations for a long-distance and remote subsea pipeline. The investigation sequence can apply to many cases with accurate prediction to reduce investigation cost, time, complexity, and risk.

Abstract:
Employee development became one of the key topics in the field of human resources management in current organizations. Taking a prop­er approach to employee and business development in this area can be a source of competitive advantage for organizations. However, few empirical studies have been conducted on the subject matter; there is still a need for further research to be conducted. The research deal with the analysis of the perception of development activi­ties in the retail organization based on a survey conducted through a struc­tured questionnaire survey and analysis of internal company materials. The goal is to point out the perception of development activities by employees based on the survey, as well as to find out the main barriers that prevent em­ployees from their development. The results of the survey show that employees perceive the development on an individual level, the greatest benefit is seen in their professional and personal growth. The employees are interested in development, but only in their working hours, they are interested in training such as foreign language and computers skills. The primary motive for development is financial. The main barrier that prevents employees from their development is time or per­ceived lack of time. Another negative factor is that manager does not check, or control acquired knowledge and skills after training. On the other hand, as a positive result is seen the internal trainer at the training and receiving feedback from the manager on employees’ performance. This paper is created for the retail organization to improve the area of em­ployee development, as well as for scholars researching this topic and others interested in the development of employees in an international company.

Abstract:
The purpose of this review is to highlight LiDAR data usage for geomorphic studies and compare to other remote sensing technologies. This review further identifies survey efficiencies and issues that can be problematic in using LiDAR digital elevation models (DEMs) in completing surveys and geomorphic analysis. US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) geospatial data collection guidance (EM 1110-1-1000) (USACE 2015) aligns with the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing Positional Accuracy Standards for Digital Geospatial Data (ASPRS 2014). Geomorphic assessment technologies are rapidly evolving, and LiDAR data collection methods are at the forefront. The FluvialGeomorph (FG) toolbox, developed to support USACE watershed planning, is a recent example of the use of LiDAR high-resolution terrain data to provide a new, efficient approach for rapid watershed assessments (Haring et al. 2020; Haring and Biedenharn 2021). However, there are advantages and disadvantages in using LiDAR data compared to other remote sensing technologies and traditional topographic field survey methods.

Abstract:
This report, prepared for The Jim Henson Company, shares findings of a sub-study investigating the types of support parents and caregivers need when navigating and using the second-screen Splash and Bubbles for Parents app. This study originated from a prior field study finding indicating families would benefit from support around the app since it represents a new kind of digital tool. In partnership with local Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) stations, we provided parents and caregivers more detailed support around the features of the app. Based on survey and interview findings, parents and caregivers found the app helpful for supporting their children’s science learning, thus validating the field study findings. We also found that all sections of the app were used and could help promote conversations between parent/caregiver and child. Moreover, families expressed choosing to use a specific app section when they felt it was more relevant or developmentally appropriate for their child.

Abstract:
The 2017 Duck Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Pilot Experiment was conducted by the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory, Field Research Facility (FRF), to assess the potential for different UAS to support US Army Corps of Engineers coastal and flood risk management. By involving participants from multiple ERDC laboratories, federal agencies, academia, and private industry, the work unit leads were able to leverage assets, resources, and expertise to assess data from multiple UAS. This report compares datasets from several UAS to assess their potential to survey and observe coastal terrain and structures. In this report, UAS data product accuracy was analyzed within the context of three potential applications: (1) general coastal terrain survey accuracy across the FRF property; (2) small-scale feature detection and observation within the experiment infrastructure area; and (3) accuracy for surveying coastal foredunes. The report concludes by presenting tradeoffs between UAS accuracy and the cost to operate to aid in selection of the best UAS for a particular task. While the technology and exact UAS models vary through time, the lessons learned from this study illustrate that UAS are available at a variety of costs to satisfy varying coastal management data needs.

Abstract:
A new, commercially available, field-portable water sensor was evaluated for efficacy during operation and compatibility with current Environmental Toolkit for Expeditionary Operations (ETEO) software. The ETEO provides sensors to Soldiers to rapidly identify and quantify environmental contamination in soil, air, and water at potential new base sites during initial reconnaissance to ensure safety and minimize unnecessary remediation efforts by the Army. In addition to streamlined environmental baseline survey (EBS) reporting, the ETEO can provide rapid analysis of potential environmental contamination to support various Military applications. The Hanna Instruments HI9829 multiparameter water meter was selected following a survey of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) technologies and analyzed by researchers from the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) for inclusion in the ETEO design since it can rapidly and accurately measure 14 different properties. Usability tests were conducted with researchers unfamiliar with the technology, and a set of standard operating procedures (SOPs) were developed to operate the device. The software for the tool was successfully integrated into the ETEO system for rapid data analysis. The HI9829 has been demonstrated in various scenarios at ERDC and other locations; including Ft. Leonard Wood, MO, at which several visitors reviewed the operation of the equipment and other ETEO technologies. The Thermo Scientific Gemini, another sensor, which can detect organic constituents in various matrices via Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy was also investigated but eliminated from the ETEO design as it could not adequately detect a Military-relevant compound in an environmental matrix. Regardless, the addition of the HI9829 provides water quality monitoring to the ETEO design and greatly improves its capability to address various applications.

Full text
Abstract:
A phased study of the dike fields within the Vicksburg and Memphis Districts of the US Army Corps of Engineers was conducted to document the channel morphology trends since dike construction on the Lower Mississippi River (LMR). This included the development of the hydrographic survey database and methodology utilized to identify changes in channel geometry in response to dike construction. A subsequent report will provide further refinements to the approach and results of the comprehensive assessment. Recent Mississippi River Geomorphology and Potamology program efforts have employed the database developed by Mr. Steve Cobb to assess the geomorphic changes in 21 dike systems along the LMR. Previous studies using this database have indicated that the dike fields have not caused a loss of channel capacity. Furthermore, these efforts suggested that the trends in the dike fields are closely related to the long-term geomorphic trends along the LMR. Previous efforts using the Cobb database provided considerable insight into the dike effects on the LMR, but they were limited spatially and temporally. In this study, a database and protocols were developed to allow for a more robust assessment of dike field impacts and to extend the spatial and temporal extents of the analysis.

Full text
Abstract:
This project developed a three-dimensional (3D) seepage model to evaluate efficiency of 84 relief wells and factors of safety (FoS) along the Profit Island vicinity levee (PIVL), north of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The PIVL model was built based on US Geological Survey MODFLOW-USG. Moreover, a 3D seepage model of RocScience RS3 was also built for a specific study of relief well experiments conducted by the US Army Corps of Engineers in the 1930s and 1940s. The PIVL model was calibrated with measured piezometric head data and relief well flow rates in 1997. Six flood scenarios were conducted: the extreme flood (56 feet), design flood (52.4 feet), 1997 flood (50 feet), 2008 flood (49.22 feet), 2017 flood (45.55 feet), and 2018 flood (49.1 feet). The modeling results show that FoS are all above 1.5 given relief wells at the 1997 design condition. FoS calculated by the blanket theory are more conservative than those by the PIVL model because designed discharge rates were not observed in the field. In comparison with measured flow rates in 2008, the PIVL modeling result indicates potential clogging at many relief wells. New piezometric data and well discharge data are recommended to re-evaluate factors of safety.
