Book excerpt: Climate and weather events define many of the abiotic features of habitat found in national parks and are key to understanding and interpreting changes in natural resources. Everyday park operations including; fire management, search and rescue, maintenance of park infrastructure, and visitor use are influenced by weather. Monitoring weather and maintaining climate records provides essential information to support park operations and monitor park resources. This report summarizes climate data collected in the North Cascades National Park Complex for Water Year 2010, and is part of a set of climate summary reports from seven national and historic parks in the North Coast and Cascades Network. Published in the National Park Service's Natural Resource Data Series, annual climate summary reports are intended to provide basic data sets and data summaries in a timely manner, with minimal interpretation and analyses. We envision National Park staff, especially, planners, scientists, interpreters, partners; and interested public as the primary audience for these reports. Temperature and precipitation data are presented from six weather stations. These stations are located on both western and eastern slopes of the North Cascades Range at both low and high elevation sites. Data were recorded using automated instruments operated by the National Park Service and other collaborators, including the National Weather Service (NWS) and the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). For two stations with long term records, the Ross Dam Cooperative Observer (COOP) station on the west side of the Cascade crest and the Stehekin COOP on the drier, east side of the park, monthly average temperatures and monthly total precipitation are reported and compared to the 30-year normal. Monthly snow depth and snow water equivalent are reported for one Snow Telemetry (SNOTEL) site and two NWS COOP stations within the park. Two NPS GLACIER climate stations provide air temperature at high elevations in alpine environments. A NWS US Climate Reference Network (USCRN) station located in Marblemount represents lowland areas on the west slopes of the North Cascade Range. A series of appendices present daily and monthly air temperature, precipitation and snowpack data from six park operated weather stations, including comparisons to period of record and highlights of important weather events from each site. In summary, average annual temperatures and precipitation were both near normal for Water Year 2010; however significant monthly departures for both parameters were documented. Overall, conditions in winter were warm and dry, with a shift to cooler and wetter conditions in the spring through early summer. Snowpack remained below normal during the warmer, drier winter months only to recover to above normal due to a wetter, cooler late spring that persisted into late June.

Book excerpt: Climate and weather events define the ecological characteristics found in national parks and are key to understanding and interpreting changes in natural resources. Everyday park operations including; fire management, search and rescue, maintenance of park infrastructure, and visitor use are influenced by weather. Collecting weather data and maintaining climate records provides essential information needed to support park operations and to monitor park resources. This report summarizes climate data collected in Olympic National Park during the 2010 water year, and is part of a set of climate summary reports from seven national and historic parks in the North Coast and Cascades Network. Published in the National Park Service's Natural Resource Data Series, annual climate summary reports are intended to provide basic data sets and data summaries in a timely manner, with minimal interpretation and analyses. We intend that the primary audience for this document will be National Park staff, especially decision makers, planners, and interpreters; partners; and interested public. Temperature and precipitation data are presented from 11 weather stations ranging in location from the coast to high elevation sites in the mountainous core of the Olympics. Data were recorded using automated instruments operated by the National Park Service and other collaborators, including the National Weather Service and the Natural Resources Conservation Service. For two stations with long term records, the Quillayute Airport representing wet, west side conditions and the Elwha Ranger Station representing the drier, northern portions of the park, monthly average temperatures and monthly total precipitation are reported and compared to the 30-year normal (1971 to 2000). Monthly snow depth and snow water equivalent (SWE) are reported for two Snow Telemetry (SNOTEL) stations and three snow courses within the park. Daily and monthly air temperature, precipitation and snowpack for the nine park operated weather stations are presented in individual appendices. Each appendix includes comparisons to the period of record, which varies by station. Highlights of important weather events and maintenance issues from each site are also noted. Weather data collected in water year 2010 indicated that this year was generally cooler and wetter than normal. Of particular interest was a mid-season shift in weather, resulting in an unusually cold and wet spring and summer which contributed to delayed phenology and a prolonged mountain snowpack.

This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A network of remote climate stations is maintained by the National Park Service (NPS) to supplement existing climate sites operated by NPS cooperators. These sites are installed within each park to fill gaps in existing climate data and provide a comprehensive understanding of park-wide climate patterns. The majority of NPS climate stations occur at Olympic National Park. In contrast to other parks within the North Coast and Cascades Network (NCCN), few stations were operated by NPS cooperators at Olympic. In 1998, a joint U.S Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)/NPS global climate change project initiated the installation of remote climate stations along a precipitation gradient within the park. Upon completion of the study, these sites were turned over to the NCCN network to form the core of Olympic National Park's NPS operated climate station network. Additional sites are being added throughout the network as time and funding allows. This protocol narrative outlines the rationale, sampling design and methods proposed for monitoring climate in the North Coast and Cascades Monitoring Network (NCCN). The NCCN, one of 32 networks of parks in the National Park System, comprises seven national park units in the Pacific Northwest, including three large, mountainous, natural area parks (Mount Rainier [MORA] and Olympic [OLYM] National Parks, North Cascades National Park Service Complex [NOCA]) and four small historic-cultural parks (Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve [EBLA], Lewis and Clark National Historical Park [LEWI], Fort Vancouver National Historical Park [FOVA], San Juan Island National Historical Park [SAJH]). This narrative reflects decisions made by the NCCN climate monitoring group, which includes National Park Service (NPS) representatives from each of the large parks in the Network and with the assistance of several agencies including National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), and the U.S. Forest Service (USFS).

Download or read book Requiem for America’s Best Idea written by Michael J. Yochim and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2022-03-01 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his enthusiastic explorations and fervent writing, Michael J. Yochim “was to Yellowstone what Muir was to Yosemite. . . . Other times, his writing is like that of Edward Abbey, full of passion for the natural world and anger at those who are abusing it,” writes foreword contributor William R. Lowry. In 2013 Yochim was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease). While fighting the disease, he wrote Requiem for America’s Best Idea. The book establishes a unique parallel between Yochim’s personal struggle with a terminal illness and the impact climate change is having on the national parks—the treasured wilderness that he loved and to which he dedicated his life. Yochim explains how climate change is already impacting the vegetation, wildlife, and the natural conditions in Olympic, Grand Canyon, Glacier, Yellowstone, and Yosemite National Parks. A poignant and thought-provoking work, Requiem for America’s Best Idea investigates the interactions between people and nature and the world that can inspire and destroy them.
