Book excerpt: Correspondence from naturalist John Kirk Townsend (1809-1851), of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to naturalist and scientific illustrator Victor Gifford Audubon (1809-1860) concerning the exchange and classification of animal specimens and skins, dated July 20, 1848. Townsend writes he is sending a box of squirrel skins to Victor Audubon, and he offers to forward quadruped specimens he is expecting that were collected by John Charles Frémont (1813-1890) in California. Townsend writes that several of his own skins, including "the only perfect specimen of the curious & rare Plecotus Townsendii," are in the hands of naturalist John Bachman (1790-1874), despite several requests for their return, and Townsend asks Victor Audubon to mention the matter if he writes to Bachman. He also writes that he hopes the health of Victor Audubon's father, John James Audubon (1785-1851), has improved.

Book excerpt: Correspondence from naturalist John Kirk Townsend (1809-1851), of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to naturalist John Bachman (1790-1874), of Charleston, South Carolina, dated from 1838 to 1848. In a letter dated January 21, 1838, Townsend mentions possibly writing an account of his part in the expedition of Nathaniel Jarvis Wyeth (1802-1856) to the Pacific, as well as an appendix describing the mammals and birds he collected. He also offers to send some of the quadruped specimens to Bachman for description, including Canis nubilus, spotted lynx, and various species of hare, some of which were preserved in spirits and corrosive sublimate. He also writes in 1838 about sending additional quadrupeds to Bachman, such as squirrels, a weasel, and meadow mice, and a prospectus for his book, The Narrative of a journey across the Rocky Mountains to the Columbia River and a Visit to the Sandwich Islands, which was published in 1839. In a letter dated September 27, 1843, Townsend urges Bachman to complete descriptions of the quadrupeds he had sent and discusses his new interest in entomology, asking if Bachman would collect and send him local insect specimens. "I am crazy for insects, & will do anything not dishonorable to obtain them," he writes. A letter dated March 16, 1848, expresses condolences for the death of one of Bachman's children, and asks him to return Townsend's quadruped specimens, which Townsend was planning to sell to the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia.

This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. Arctic waters north of the Bering Strait and west of the Canadian border encompass a vast area that is usually ice covered for much of the year, but is increasingly experiencing longer periods and larger areas of open water due to climate change. Sparsely inhabited with a wide variety of ecosystems found nowhere else, this region is vulnerable to damage from human activities. As oil and gas, shipping, and tourism activities increase, the possibilities of an oil spill also increase. How can we best prepare to respond to such an event in this challenging environment? Responding to Oil Spills in the U.S. Arctic Marine Environment reviews the current state of the science regarding oil spill response and environmental assessment in the Arctic region north of the Bering Strait, with emphasis on the potential impacts in U.S. waters. This report describes the unique ecosystems and environment of the Arctic and makes recommendations to provide an effective response effort in these challenging conditions. According to Responding to Oil Spills in the U.S. Arctic Marine Environment, a full range of proven oil spill response technologies is needed in order to minimize the impacts on people and sensitive ecosystems. This report identifies key oil spill research priorities, critical data and monitoring needs, mitigation strategies, and important operational and logistical issues. The Arctic acts as an integrating, regulating, and mediating component of the physical, atmospheric and cryospheric systems that govern life on Earth. Not only does the Arctic serve as regulator of many of the Earth's large-scale systems and processes, but it is also an area where choices made have substantial impact on life and choices everywhere on planet Earth. This report's recommendations will assist environmentalists, industry, state and local policymakers, and anyone interested in the future of this special region to preserve and protect it from damaging oil spills.

Book excerpt: This overview of interactive videodisc technology is designed to assist educators in finding the appropriate equipment and software for any specific application.
