Book excerpt: Yellowstone National Park (YNP), Wyoming USA, contains over 10,000 geothermal features and 2 to 5 % of these features are geysers. Yellowstone has about half of the world's geysers and the majority of YNP geysers are located in Upper geysers Basin. Beginning in 1970, details (time of eruption, height, duration, etc.) of about 25 geysers activities have been recorded in log books and later transcribed into an electronic dataset and posted on the park's website. The data was collected by park rangers, visitors, and geyser enthusiasts, among others. The data collected by direct observation, camera, electronic, etc. The dataset contains a great deal of information that is relevant to scientists, educators and the public. However, the use of the dataset is severely limited without cleaning and standardization. Given the size, time span over which the data was collected, and the number of people involved in collecting the data, it?s inevitable that the data contains many inconsistencies. The dataset has been cleaned, standardized, reorganized in some parts and converted to a spreadsheet which makes the dataset much better suited for computations and analysis. The reorganization consists of two steps: step one was to remove text type information and extra information to a newly created column; and step two was to reorder the information in a set of records so that individual data entry is consistent with the column heading under which it should have been listed. The overall and monthly statistical summary of the data shows that interval and duration are both bimodal normally distributed, height is normally distributed and preplay display a Rayleigh type distribution. Comparison of the YNP and the electronic dataset was not feasible for all geysers and all variables; however, where it?s feasible such as the case for interval data, the two datasets are nearly identical.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IUCN's Protected Areas Management Categories, which classify protected areas according to their management objectives, are today accepted as the benchmark for defining, recording, and classifying protected areas. They are recognized by international bodies such as the United Nations as well as many national governments. As a result, they are increasingly being incorporated into government legislation. These guidelines provide as much clarity as possible regarding the meaning and application of the Categories. They describe the definition of the Categories and discuss application in particular biomes and management approaches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long-term monitoring programs are fundamental to understanding the natural environment and managing major environmental problems. Yet they are often done very poorly and ineffectively. This second edition of the highly acclaimed Effective Ecological Monitoring describes what makes monitoring programs successful and how to ensure that long-term monitoring studies persist. The book has been fully revised and updated but remains concise, illustrating key aspects of effective monitoring with case studies and examples. It includes new sections comparing surveillance-based and question-based monitoring, analysing environmental observation networks, and provides examples of adaptive monitoring. Based on the authors’ 80 years of collective experience in running long-term research and monitoring programs, Effective Ecological Monitoring is a valuable resource for the natural resource management, ecological and environmental science and policy communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clean Water Act (CWA) requires that wetlands be protected from degradation because of their important ecological functions including maintenance of high water quality and provision of fish and wildlife habitat. However, this protection generally does not encompass riparian areasâ€"the lands bordering rivers and lakesâ€"even though they often provide the same functions as wetlands. Growing recognition of the similarities in wetland and riparian area functioning and the differences in their legal protection led the NRC in 1999 to undertake a study of riparian areas, which has culminated in Riparian Areas: Functioning and Strategies for Management. The report is intended to heighten awareness of riparian areas commensurate with their ecological and societal values. The primary conclusion is that, because riparian areas perform a disproportionate number of biological and physical functions on a unit area basis, restoration of riparian functions along America's waterbodies should be a national goal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientists have been warning for years that human activity is heating up the planet and climate change is under way. We are only just beginning to acknowledge the serious effects this will have on all life on Earth. The federal government is crafting broad-scale strategies to protect wildland ecosystems from the worst effects of climate change. One of the greatest challenges is to get the latest science into the hands of resource managers entrusted with vulnerable wildland ecosystems. This book examines climate and land-use changes in montane environments, assesses the vulnerability of species and ecosystems to these changes, and provides resource managers with collaborative management approaches to mitigate expected impacts. Climate Change in Wildlands proposes a new kind of collaboration between scientists and managers--a science-derived framework and common-sense approaches for keeping parks and protected areas healthy on a rapidly changing planet.
