In the early 1970's, the growing awareness of the potential ecological impacts of fire suppression and the threat of more intensive fires due to fuel accumulation in fire-suppressed forests prompted the National Park Service to allow some fires to burn (Grand Teton National Park 1974). One of the first "prescribed natural fires" in a western National Park was the Waterfalls Canyon Fire (WCF) in Grand Teton National Park (GTNP). It was ignited by lightning in July 1974. Amid much public controversy (Anonymous 1974), the fire burned 1414 ha before it was extinguished by snow in December. In the following year, GTNP biologists established permanent plots within and adjacent to the WCF in forests dominated by subalpine fir, Engelmann spruce, and lodgepole pine, and which varied in fire severity and time since fire. The goal of the study was to document the effect of the 1974 fire by monitoring long-term changes in vegetation, breeding birds, and small mammals (Barmore et al. 1976). Data were collected from four study areas in 1975, 1976, 1977, and 1983 under the direction of William Barmore. In 1991 and 1992 we resampled the permanently-marked vegetation plots and breeding bird transects. Our objectives were to compile, analyze and interpret all of the data collected from the four study areas since 1975.

A major objective of the National Park Service is to preserve examples of natural features and processes that characterize the North American landscape. Fire is now widely recognized as a natural process in many ecosystems, but its management remains a controversial issue. Research on successional change following fire will contribute to improved fire interpretation and management. The Waterfalls Canyon (WC) fire was started by lightning in July 1974 and continued burning until December. Approximately 1414 ha were burned on the west side of Jackson Lake in Grand Teton National Park (GTNP) (Barmore et al. 1976). This fire was especially significant because it was one of the first large fires to occur in a National Park following the adoption of the revised fire management policies in 1972, allowing natural fires to burn in certain designated areas. Prior to 1972, the long­standing fire management policy was to suppress both natural and human-caused fires (Barmore et al. 1976). Considerable scientific and public interest was generated by the Waterfalls Canyon fire. For example, tourists in GTNP complained about the smoke which obscured views of the Tetons. For park scientists, the Waterfalls Canyon fire provided an opportunity to initiate studies to better understand and interpret the fundamental role of fire in GTNP. During the summer of 1975, Barmore et al. (1976) established a series of permanent plots to evaluate post-fire changes in vegetation and small mammal and bird abundance. In addition, baseline data were collected in 1975 describing the soils, streamwater chemistry, and insect populations. Permanent plots were established within two stands that burned in 1974: 1) a severely burned stand (forest floor burned exposing mineral soil), and 2) a moderately burned stand (forest floor mostly unburned). In addition, permanent plots were established in two adjacent sites, both unburned in 1974, but which appeared to be very similar to the (WC) burned area. One was a mature spruce-fir forest that had not burned for more than 100 years, and the other was a stand that burned in 1932. Important data was collected by Park scientists following the Waterfalls Canyon fire, with vegetation, bird and mammal data being collected in the four study sites in 1975, 1976, 1977 and 1983.

Implementing appropriate fire regimes has become an increasingly important objective for biodiversity conservation programs. Here, we used Landsat imagery from 1972 to 2003 to describe the recent fire history and current wildfire regime of the north-eastern Simpson Desert, Australia, within each of the region’s seven main vegetation classes. We then explored the relationship between antecedent rainfall and El Niño–Southern Oscillation with wildfire area. Wildfires were recorded in 11 years between 1972 and 2003, each differing in size. In 1975, the largest wildfire was recorded, burning 55% (4561 km2) of the study region. Smaller fires in the intervening years burnt areas that had mostly escaped the 1975 fire, until 2002, when 31% (2544 km2) of the study region burnt again. Wildfires burnt disproportionally more spinifex (Triodia basedowii) than any other vegetation class. A total of 49% of the study area has burnt once since 1972 and 20% has burnt twice. Less than 1% has burnt three times and 36% has remained unaffected by wildfire since 1972. The mean minimum fire return interval was 26 years. Two years of cumulative rainfall before a fire event, rainfall during the year of a fire event, and the mean Southern Oscillation Index from June to November in the year before a fire event could together be used to successfully predict wildfire area. We use these findings to describe the current fire regime.

Changes in fire size, shape, and frequency under different fire-management strategies were evaluated using time series of fire perimeter data (fire atlases) and mapped potential vegetation types (PVTs) in the Gila – Aldo Leopold Wilderness Complex (GALWC) in New Mexico and the Selway–Bitterroot Wilderness Complex (SBWC) in Idaho and Montana. Relative to pre-Euro-American estimates, fire rotations in the GALWC were short during the recent wildfire-use period (1975–1993) and long during the pre-modern suppression period (1909–1946). In contrast, fire rotations in the SBWC were short during the pre-modern suppression period (1880–1934) and long during the modern suppression period (1935–1975). In general, fire-rotation periods were shorter in mid-elevation, shade-intolerant PVTs. Fire intervals in the GALWC and SBWC are currently longer than fire intervals prior to Euro-American settlement. Proactive fire and fuels management are needed to restore fire regimes in each wilderness complex to within natural ranges of variability and to reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfire in upper elevations of the GALWC and nearly the entire SBWC. Analyses of fire atlases provide baseline information for evaluating landscape patterns across broad landscapes.

The Vietnam war (1955-75) was a conflict that made its mark on global history. It was a truly multidimensional conflict, where the frontlines were not separate from the heartlands. To bring order to the chaotic situation created by the aftermath of French withdrawal from Indochina, the United States of America decided to involve itself in the pacification of South Vietnam. They wanted to create a stable US-aligned regime which would curtail communist efforts in the region. In order to achieve this, they launched multiple intelligence-gathering and pacification campaigns. But despite the considerable efforts and resources brought to bear, South Vietnam fell to communism in 1975. In this paper, I will give a brief overview of US pacification attempts, and the problems relating to fighting such a difficult battle, where there are no clear sides, and anyone can be a potential enemy. Given the nature of the subject, few such works have been made that attempt to compare the methods listed here.

Ngauruhoe is an active basaltic andesite to andesite composite cone volcano at the southern end of the Tongariro volcanic complex, and most recently erupted in 1954-55 and 1974-75. These eruptions constructed the inner crater of Ngauruhoe, largely composed of 1954-55 deposits, which are the basis of this study. The inner crater stratigraphy, exposed on the southern wall, is divided into seven lithostratigraphic units (A to G), while the northern stratigraphy is obscured by the inward collapse of the crater rim. The units are, from oldest to youngest: Unit A, (17.5 m thick), a densely agglutinated spatter deposit with sharp clast outlines; Unit B, (11.2 m) a thick scoria lapilli deposit with local agglutination and scattered spatter bombs up to 1 m in length; Unit C, (6.4 m thick) a clastogenic lava deposit with lateral variations in agglutination; and Unit D, (10 m thick) a scoria lapilli with varying local agglutination. The overlying Unit E (15 cm thick) is a fine ash fallout bed that represents the final vulcanian phase of the 1954-55 eruption. Unit F is a series of six lapilli and ash beds that represent the early vulcanian episode of the 1974-75 eruption. The uppermost Unit G (averaging 10 m thick) is a densely agglutinated spatter deposit that represents the later strombolian phase of the 1974-75 eruption. Units A-D juvenile clasts are porphyritic, with phenocrysts of plagioclase, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, minor olivine, within a microlitic glassy groundmass. Quartzose and greywacke xenoliths are common in most units, and are derived from the underlying basement. The 1954-55 and 1974-75 eruptions are a product of a short-lived, continental arc medium-K calc-alkaline magma. The magma originated from the mantle, then filtered through the crust, undergoing assimilation and fractionation, and evolving to basaltic andesite and andesite compositions. The magma body stagnated in shallow reservoirs where it underwent further crustal assimilation and fractionation of plagioclase and olivine, and homogenisation through magma mixing. Prior to the 1954-55 eruption a more primitive magma body was incorporated into the melt. The melt homogenised and fed both the 1954-55 and 1974-75 eruptions, with a residence time of at least 20 years. The 1954-55 eruption produced alternating basaltic andesite and andesite strombolian activity and more intense fire fountaining, erupting scoria and spatter that built up the bulk of the inner crater. A period of relative quiescence allowed the formation of a cooled, solid cap rock that resulted in the accumulation of pressure due to volatile exsolution and bubble coalescence. The fracturing of the cap rock then resulted in a vulcanian eruption, depositing a thin layer of fine ash and ballistic blocks. The 1974-75 eruption commenced with the rupturing of the near-solid cap rock from the 1954-55 eruption in an explosive vulcanian blast, the result of decompressional volatile exsolution and bubble coalescence, and possible magma-water interaction. The eruption later changed to strombolian style, producing a clastogenic lava that partially flowed back into the crater.

This study is based at Rocky Canyon Quarry (RCQ), a 200-acre granite aggregate open-pit quarry with chaparral-dominated plant communities located in San Luis Obispo County, CA. At RCQ, the Surface Mining and Reclamation Act (SMARA) of 1975 was interpreted as restoring the landscape to native plant communities. Native plant community restoration projects have occurred there since 1993 through cooperation with California Polytechnic State University Biology Department in San Luis Obispo, CA. I evaluated past restoration at RCQ and researched new techniques to improve chaparral restoration based on the natural processes of fire. Chaparral is an important fire-dominated plant community within the California Floristic Province, which covers about seven percent of California. Typically during a fire, heat immediately acts on Adenostoma fasciculatum (Chamise) seeds/m2 in the soil seed bank. Smoke also reaches seeds on and near the soil surface. Chemical effects of fire, such as smoke and charcoal, are deposited on the soil surface and leach into the seed bank after fall rains. In nature, this results in enhanced germination of the seeds and the beginning of chaparral post-fire succession. Fire effects, both heat and chemical, have been supported to increase seed germination in numerous laboratory and field studies. I sought to utilize natural fire cues, such as heat, charate, and liquid smoke, to develop successful and efficient restoration prescriptions. The most successful restoration technique developed utilized Wright’s Liquid Smoke and heat to increase seed germination of Adenostoma fasciculatum (Chamise), Ceanothus cuneatus (California lilac), and Salvia mellifera (Black Sage) significantly. A new restoration prescription for RCQ based on literature reviews and the above mentioned research is presented.

Aquesta tesi explica la formació i el desenvolupament de la companyia de bombers de la ciutat de Lleida, un procés que comprèn des de la segona meitat del segle xix i fins al darrer quart del xx. Es tracta d’una investigació que, per tal d’aprofundir en la totalitat de l’objecte d’estudi, s’ha plantejat des de dues perspectives diferents que resulten, però, complementàries. En primer lloc, s’ha caracteritzat la vessant institucional on s’inclou l’anàlisi del finançament i la conjuntura política que ha sustentat el cos, els reglaments que l’han organitzat, el personal que l’ha format, els recursos materials que ha disposat i els serveis que ha prestat. En segon lloc, s’ha situat la companyia en l’entorn social de cada conjuntura històrica, presentant-la com una nova i necessària eina d’afermament de la seguretat pública que creixia en conjunció amb altres polítiques de caire cívic com l’higienisme i un nou urbanisme. Tot plegat, desenvolupat en el context de transformació urbana que va significar el pas des d’una ciutat d’Antic Règim a una nova urbs burgesa amb estructures pensades per a possibilitar l’expansió del capitalisme. Ben entrat el segle xx –sobretot a partir de la segona meitat de la centúria–, el servei d’extinció d’incendis evoluciona cap a noves funcions que complementen la protecció ciutadana tradicional i que el situen en l’àmbit del benestar social. La fonamentació heurística del treball se centra en el buidat de fonts procedents dels arxius locals, majoritàriament de l’arxiu de la Paeria de Lleida i en fonts d’hemeroteca relacionades amb cada fase cronològica del treball .
Esta tesis explica la formación y el desarrollo de la compañía de bomberos de la ciudad de Lleida, un proceso que comprende desde la segunda mitad del siglo xix hasta el último cuarto del xx. Se trata de una investigación que, con la intención de profundizar en la totalidad del objeto de estudio, se ha planteado desde dos perspectivas diferentes pero que resultan complementarias. En primer lugar, se ha caracterizado la vertiente institucional donde se incluye el análisis financiero y la coyuntura política que ha sustentado al cuerpo, los reglamentos que lo han organizado, el personal que lo ha formado, los recursos materiales de los que ha dispuesto y los servicios que ha prestado. En segundo lugar, se ha situado la compañía en el entorno social de cada coyuntura histórica, presentándola como una nueva y necesaria herramienta de afianzamiento de la seguridad pública que crecía en conjunción con otras políticas de cariz cívico como el higienismo y un nuevo urbanismo. Todo ello, desarrollado en el contexto de transformación urbana que significó el paso desde una ciudad de Antiguo Régimen a una nueva urbe burguesa con estructuras pensadas en hacer posible la expansión del capitalismo. Ya avanzado el siglo xx –sobretodo a partir de la segunda mitad de la centuria–, el servicio de extinción de incendios evoluciona hacia nuevas funciones que complementan la protección ciudadana tradicional y que lo sitúan en el ámbito del bienestar social. La fundamentación heurística del trabajo se basa en el vaciado de fuentes procedentes de archivos locales, mayoritariamente del archivo de la Paeria de Lleida y en fuentes de hemeroteca relacionadas con cada fase cronológica del trabajo.
This thesis tells us about the formation and development of Lleida’s fire brigade, a process which takes in from the nineteenth century second half till the twentieth century final years. It is a research that, in order to go deeply into the subject of study itself, has been proposed from two different, but supplementary, approaches. Firstly, it distinguishes the institutional viewpoint which includes the financial analysis and the political situation which has held up the brigade, the regulation applied to organize it, its crew, material resources that have been used, as well as the service offered. Secondly, the brigade has been part of the social background during each historical situation, being considered as a new and necessary tool to strengthen public security and which has grown along other public spirited policies such as hygienism and new urban development. All together, it developed in a context of town planning transformation which led an Old Regime town into a new middle class town, whose structures were thought to enable capitalism to spread. Well into the twentieth century- mainly from the second half onward- the fire-extinguishing service takes up new functions which round off the traditional citizenship protection and advances into the social welfare field. The heuristic groundwork of this essay is based on the analysis of sources from local archives, mainly those of the Paeria in Lleida (townhall), but also newspapers and periodical archives concerning each one of the chronological periods shown in this work.

Au même titre que l'intégration économique, les firmes multinationales sont la signe d'une internationalisation constante de l'économie mondiale au cours des dernières décennies. C'est précisément ce qui rend intéressante toute étude historique de la relation entre les deux phénomènes. Cette problématique dévoile des questions fondamentales : par exemple, est-ce que les multinationales anticipent, suivent ou encore poursuivent de tels changements dans leur environnement ? Afin de répondre a cette question (parmi d'autres), nous avons observé une multinationale européenne face à la construction de l’Europe et à la mise en œuvre du marché commun. Nous avons distingué alors 3 phases thèmes différents : la firme et l'idée d'intégration, la firme face à la communauté économique européenne et finalement l'"intégration dans la firme". Théoriquement, l'intégration est favorable aux multinationales, mais en prenant un tour plus concret (avec la C. E. E. ) pour Philips, elle s'avère une tâche difficile au sein de la firme. Tentant de tirer parti des avantages offerts par un grand marche unique européen, les responsables-Philips découvrent les problèmes dus à la structure par "espaces-marchés" propre à Philips
Like economic integration, multinational firms are a sign of the growing internationalization of the world economy during the last decades. That precisely makes very interesting any historical study of the relation between those two facts. Some very important questions araise from these problematic : for example, are multinationals anticipating, following up or going after such developments in their environment? in order to answer these question (among others), we observed a european multinational facing the coming of economic integration and the realization of the common market. Here, we made a distinction between three different stages : the firm and the idea of integration, the firm facing an european economic community and finally the "integration in the firm". Theoretically, integration should be a good thing for a multinational, but becoming (with the E. E. C) more and more practical for Philips, integration is also appearing as a difficult task inside the firm. Trying to take advantage of the possibilities of a great single european market, Philips' managers are discovering the problems caused by the "market by market" structure of Philips

In 1972 ceramist Ken Price (b. 1935) embarked on Happy's Curios , a six-year long project that he described as an homage to Mexican folk pottery. It ended with a 1978 exhibition of the same name held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The project and the related exhibition integrated and critically investigated three common classifications of cultural objects: fine art, folk art, and craft. This thesis argues that the Happy's Curios project deploys these categories in a manner that challenges and deconstructs how they are used. The thesis offers a critical history of the Happy's Curios project and its reception in order to interrogate how the project engages the taxonomy of fine art, folk art, and craft, as well as its relevance to a broader art historical context.

Resumo:
The aim of this thesis is to examine the practice of publishing followed by English little presses in the post-World War II period, with particular emphasis on the design and production of books. There is relatively little published material on these presses from the perspective of publishing and design history, and this thesis seeks to redress some of this imbalance. Using a case-study approach, this thesis focuses on the publishing practice of five London-based presses over a thirty-five-year period (1945-1979): Stuart Montgomery's Fulcrum Press, Stefan and Franciszka Themerson's Gaberbocchus Press, Roy Lewis's Keepsake Press, Asa Benveniste's Trigram Press, and Bob Cobbing's Writers Forum. It draws from a variety of sources, including interviews with many closely associated with the presses, archival material (such as correspondence with authors and suppliers, invoices, and artwork), and an analysis of editions published by these presses. The thesis briefly compares little press practice to mainstream publishing and private press practice of the time. Relationships between little presses and mainstream organizations including the Arts Council of Great Britain and the Poetry Society are also briefly considered. The thesis consists of two parts. The first part provides the general context and background and consists of two chapters. The first chapter critically evaluates published material related to little press publishing from different angles, including publishing history, design and printing history, and literary history, with the intention of establishing key sources. The second chapter provides brief biographical information about the principals, and considers their individual methods of operation, including editorial agendas, approaches to marketing and distribution, and financial support. The second part of this thesis is focused on aspects of book production and design, and begins by providing a brief overview of mainstream book production and design during this period. Subsequent chapters, organised by press, examine different aspects of book production and design, with the intention of establishing the extent to which design was an important factor in little press publishing. The approaches, methods, and equipment employed in book production are discussed, and an overview of each press's approach to book design with particular emphasis on typography, illustration, layout and colour is provided. This is further supplemented by a detailed analysis of a chosen title published by each press. An illustrated catalogue of 357 books published by these presses provides added visual context.

AbstractAssuming landscape transformations as a process fueling the local level of vulnerability to wildfires, this work investigates the spatial distribution of selected land-use classes for two years (1975 and 2018) in a metropolitan region of the Mediterranean basin (Athens, central Greece). Built-up settlements and cropland expanded moderately over time, facing a slight decline in forests and semi-natural areas. These changes resulted in the inherent growth in local vulnerability to wildfires estimated using a composite indicator, namely the Fire Risk (FR) index developed in the framework of the MEDALUS international research project financed by the European Commission. Crop mosaics and discontinuous settlements were the classes contributing the most to FR growth. The empirical findings of our work suggest how the conversion of fringe landscapes toward simplified (and, likely, low-quality) cropland and pasture land, as well as the inherent fragmentation of natural/semi-natural landscape patches, is detrimental to environmental quality, increasing the potential exposure to peri-urban fires.

The US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has completed a study of historical rail accidents (from 1975 to 2005) involving hazardous materials and long duration fires in the United States. The study was initiated to determine what types of accidents had actually occurred, and what type of impact those types of accidents could have on the rail transport of spent nuclear fuel. The NRC found that almost 21 billion miles of rail shipments has yielded only a small number of accidents involving hazardous materials, eight of which involved both hazardous materials and long duration fires. The NRC reviewed these eight accidents in detail to determine what types of effects these accidents might have on a spent fuel cask, should one have been involved. The staff determined that the fires witnessed in the accidents studied would not have provided a fully engulfing fire environment as described by the hypothetical accident condition fire in NRC regulations for radioactive material transport found in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 71, Section 73. This paper will detail the NRC study of these accidents and conclusions regarding effects on transportation casks exposed to the fires that resulted from these accidents.

The US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an analysis of historical rail accidents (from 1975 to 2005) involving hazardous materials and long duration fires in the United States. The analysis was initiated to determine what types of accidents had occurred and what impact those types of accidents could have on the rail transport of spent nuclear fuel. The NRC found that almost 21 billion miles of freight rail shipments over a 30 year period had resulted in a small number of accidents involving the release of hazardous materials, eight of which involved long duration fires. All eight of the accidents analyzed resulted in fires that were less severe than the “fully engulfing fire” described as a hypothetical accident condition in the NRC regulations for radioactive material transport found in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 71, Section 73. None of the eight accidents involved a release of radioactive material. This paper describes the eight accidents in detail and examines the potential effects on spent nuclear fuel transportation packages exposed to the fires that resulted from these accidents.

Under a range of stimulus conditions, the threshold for discriminating spatial offset in a Vernier target is finer than the retinal photoreceptor mosaic, the defining characteristic of a hyperacuity (Westheimer 1975, 1979). Over the past several years, evidence has accumulated that the visual system achieves fine Vernier thresholds using different mechanisms, depending upon the characteristics of the stimulus. The most acute Vernier thresholds, obtained for highly visible, abutting line targets in the fovea, are thought to be mediated by the contrast responses of oriented cortical filters that straddle the Vernier offset (e.g., Findlay 1973; Wilson 1986; Waugh et al. 1993). Thresholds are higher, but can remain within the hyperacuity range, when the Vernier targets are separated by more than a few min of arc (e.g., Sullivan et al. 1972; Klein & Levi 1987; Levi & Klein 1990; Waugh & Levi 1993) or have opposite contrast polarities (O'Shea & Mitchell 1990; Levi & Waugh 1996). The thresholds obtained under these stimulus conditions have been attributed to a local-sign mechanism that separately computes the locations of the individual Vernier elements and then compares these position signals (Klein & Levi 1987).

Ciletuh, southwest Java has been well known as one of the places in Java where pre-Tertiary basement rocks are exposed (Verbeek and Fennema, 1896; Duyfjes, 1940; van Bemmelen, 1949; Sukamto, 1975). In plate tectonic point of view, Ciletuh has been known as place outcropping melange complex related to pre-Tertiary oceanic plate subduction (Thayyib et al., 1977). Ciletuh subduction regionally has been linked to the Cretaceous subduction zones of Luk Ulo/Karang Sambung (Central Java) and Meratus Mountains (South Kalimantan) (Hutchison, 1973; Asikin 1974; Hamilton, 1979). Ciletuh subduction however, has not been dated using metamorphic rocks formed in its subduction zone. Its link to Luk Ulo and Meratus subduction zone only based on the presence of melange, which also lacks of data Meanwhile, subduction zones of Luk Ulo and Meratus have been dated and analysed. We herewith present the results of new field studies and various analyses carried out in the last five years of the Ciletuh subduction complex. The indication of Cretaceous subduction has not found from the date measurement, Ciletuh shows Eocene related subduction. Most of the ophiolites were island-arc tholeiitic or island-arc basalt formed in supra-subduction zone. The overlying olistostrome deposits were younger than previously considered and lasted until early/middle Miocene. Some of the basaltic pillowed lava is considered as part of the ophiolite, while the ones at Gunung Badak is more likely a part of the early Miocene Jampang volcanism. Link of Ciletuh to Early Cretaceous subduction of Luk Ulo is not supported by geochronological data. The new knowledge of Ciletuh subduction implies the pre-Tertiary and Paleogene geology of Java, and petroleum prospectivities of the Paleogene objectives of southern West Java. New problems arise and need more field data and analyses to find out the answers.

This paper aims to investigate major determinants of interprovincial migration in Turkey until 2010. In recent decades the magnitude of migration in absolute terms has increased considerably: During 1975-1980, 3.6 million people migrated, which constitutes 9.4% of the total population. These numbers have increased to 6.7 million people and 11.2% in the 1995-2000 period. The rate of increase is especially tremendous for the 1985-1990 period with 41%. Over the years the composition of migration has also changed: In the past rural-to-urban migration was predominant; however, today there is remarkable amount of urban-to-urban migration. During 1975-1980, 66% of the total migrants were towards urban centers, which increased to 75% during 1995-2000. On the other hand, the percentage of total migrants towards the village centers declined from 34 to 25 in the respective periods. From 2008 on, the Turkish Statistical Institute (TUIK) started publishing yearly unemployment statistics at provincial level, which permits an analysis of Turkey’s migration patterns within the Harris-Todaro framework. Moreover since 2007, TUIK started implementing Address Based Population Registration System, which enables tracking migration moves continuously, rather than by intermittent five to ten year periods. However, data was not adequate to test Turkey’s migration within the Harris-Todaro framework, especially due to lack of average wages at the provincial level. Therefore, utilizing the 2010 provincial level data, we tried to explain Turkey’s internal migration based on variables such as population born outside of their current province, number of university students, and a proxy variable we developed for average wages.

For the first time in workplace history, there are five generations are in the workplace simultaneously: the Traditionalists (born between 1925 and 1945), the Baby Boomers (born between 1946 and 1964), Generation X (born between 1965 and 1980), Generation Y (born between 1981 and 1994), and the Millennials (born after 1995). Accommodating the unique learning and development needs of such a diverse spectrum of learners in the organizational enterprise have provided significant procedural and cultural roadblocks for facilitating efficient learning content delivery and personalization. A potential strategy in assessing this complex challenge is implementing a set of flexible assessment options that allow individuals to choose evaluation options and evidence types that best suit their individuality within a framework that is focused on supporting accepted common generational traits. For example, Baby Boomers have excellent team work skills and thrive on adrenaline-charged assignments while Millennials are more technologically dependent and are often more worried about the perception of success rather than actual achievement. Such an approach provides learning and development professionals a repeatable and highly customizable strategy for meeting the broad spectrum of requirements and support for a highly heterogeneous audience. This paper will examine how such a framework can be utilized to add efficiency and personalization to online learning delivery while still providing the flexibility for individuality without restrictions due to generational positioning. This type of approach allows for a generalized strategy of personalization that has been long on promise but short on delivery, particularly in the areas of learning and development.

More of the crude oil being produced in the world is heavy oil. It was reported by Meyer and Dietzman (1979) that world annual production of heavy crude oil was about five percent of other oil produced. They forecast that heavy crude oil production would increase. Canadian heavy oil production cumulative to 1979 was reported to be 197 million barrels. By 1996 Canadian daily production levels have risen to the levels shown in Table 1, with annual production of heavy oil and bitumen exceeding cumulative totals produced to 1979.

Midlevel clouds occur in the region of the troposphere, lying between high cirrus ice clouds and low boundary layer stratus, stratocumulus and cumulus clouds. Midlevel clouds are associated with moisture advected to the middle part of the troposphere between about 2km and 6km, or temperatures between about 0°C and -20°C. However, there is no sharp gradation between cirrus and altus clouds, rather, a blending of one into the other. Again, deep frontal clouds, which include midlevel cloud, can extend from cirrus level to the boundary layer. Both the depths and the compositions of midlevel clouds are thus very variable. The clouds can often exist as supercooled water drops, which sometimes glaciate rapidly; as the saturation vapour pressure over ice is lower than over water, and the deficit is maximum at about -15°C in the mid-troposphere, any tendency for ice crystals to form can cause rapid growth of the crystals at the expense of the water drops. Optical remote sensing of these clouds has been confined in the past to a few observations (e.g. Platt and Gambling, 1971, Platt and Bartusek, 1974, Platt, 1977, Sassen, 1984, Uchino et al., 1988). However, recently, a few more observations were made in the first FIRE experiment (e.g. Heymsfield et al., 1991) although observations tended to concentrate on cirrus.

This paper describes the performance and operating experience with two residential sized Combined Heat and Power units which were in operation from 1979 through 1995. The first unit was an automatic coal fired steam electric Combined Heat and Power system, based on the Rankine Steam Cycle. The unit was initially fired in 1979, operating with a steam turbine-generator for two years, and was modified with a reciprocating expander for an additional two years operation. The unit functioned reliably, with only four forced outages during the four years of operation. The second system was diesel engine-generator based, again a Combined Heat and Power System, which was started in 1987 and operated for seven seasons into 1995. The system efficiency averaged 90% during the heating season, and showed remarkably low machinery wear and minimal maintenance during the eight year run. A technical description and performance characteristics are provided for each unit. Relevant design features, design challenges arising during operation, and details of operating experiences are discussed. Photographs, System Diagrams, and Performance Graphs of these early prototype units are included within the paper. Recommended design criteria for optimized small Distributed Generation/Combined Heat and Power units is developed in the paper.

The US Congress codified the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (NHPA), the nation’s most effective cultural resources legislation to date, mostly through establishing the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The NHPA requires Federal agencies to address their cultural resources, which are defined as any prehistoric or historic district, site, building, structure, or object. Section 110 of the NHPA requires Federal agencies to inventory and evaluate their cultural resources, and Section 106 requires them to determine the effect of Federal undertakings on those potentially eligible for the NRHP. Fort Hunter Liggett is located on California’s Central Coast within Monterey County. The fort has been used as a training facility for large-scale maneuvers and live-fire exercises since its establishment as a US Army training facility in 1941. The periods of significance for Criterion A are: from 1769 to 1833, relating to the founding and development of Mission San Antonio de Padua; from 1834 to 1923, relating to Euro-American land grants and ranchos; from 1923 to 1940, relating to Hearst’s purchase of the property and subsequent development; from 1940 to 1945, relating to the establishment of the Hunter Liggett Military Reservation (HLMR) and activities related to WWII; from 1959 to 1970, relating to the establishment and buildup of CDEC; and from 1975 to 1980, relating to HLMR’s redesignation as Fort Hunter Liggett and associated development. This report provides a comprehensive historic context for ranges, features, and buildings at Fort Hunter Liggett in support of Section 110 of the NHPA.

Attic fires pose many hazards for the fire service. When a fire occurs in an attic, it is common it goes unnoticed/reported until smoke or flames are visible from the outside of the structure. Because they take longer to detect, attic fires are more dangerous for firefighters and residents. In a fire situation, the attic ventilation system, which is designed to reduce moisture accumulation by drawing fresh air low from the eaves and exhausting moisture laden warm air near the peak, create an optimal fire growth and spread situation by supplying oxygen to the fire and exhausting hot gases. An estimated 10,000 residential attic fires are reported to U.S. fire departments each year and cause an estimated 30 civilian deaths, 125 civilian injuries and $477 million in property loss. The location of the attic creates several difficulties for the fire service. Firefighters must decide whether to fight the fire from inside the structure, from the outside or a combination of the two. This the decision is complicated by the constant hazard of ceiling collapse, which has the potential to rapidly deteriorate conditions in the living spaces. A piece of gypsum board may fall or be pulled from the ceiling making the relatively clear and cool conditions in the living space change very quickly endangering firefighters executing a search and rescue operation as part of their life safety mission. Further complicating the decision are the hazards associated with roof structure collapse, creating deadly conditions for firefighters operating on and under the roof. Structural collapse accounted for 180 firefighter deaths between 1979 and 2002 of which one-third occurred in residential structures . Many of these incidents involved a roof falling on firefighters or firefighters falling through the roof during firefighting operations on attic fires. The purpose of this study is to increase firefighter safety by providing the fire service with scientific knowledge on the dynamics of attic and exterior fires and the influence of coordinated fire mitigation tactics from full-scale fire testing in realistic residential structures.

Resumo:
This Open File Report provides the available macroseismic information for the seven largest moderate earthquakes that occurred in the Charlevoix Seismic Zone between 1870 and 2021. These earthquakes and their moment magnitude (M) are: 1) February 3, 1902, M 4.5; 2) September 30, 1924, M 5.2; 3) January 08, 1931, M 4.9; 4) October 19, 1939, M 5.3; 5) October 14, 1952, M 4.5; 6) August 19, 1979, M 4.8; 7) March 6, 2005, M 4.7. Five, possibly six, of these seven earthquakes occurred in the northeast portion of the CSZ, where the largest event of the period, the 1925 M 6.2 earthquake, also occurred. For each locality where the earthquakes were felt, macroseismic information is given and interpreted on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale. The original mail questionnaires filled by postmasters for earthquakes no. 3, 4, 5 and 6 are lost. Consequently, the main sources of information are the newspaper accounts except for no. 7 for which web-based questionnaires are available. The macroseismic information from localities in Canada and in the US (from NOAA) are tabulated in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. Most newspaper clippings that have macroseismic information are included. The Open File also provides Google Earth kmz files that allow the felt information reports to be viewed in a spatial tool.
