Book Synopsis Historical Painting Techniques, Materials, and Studio Practice by : Arie Wallert
Download or read book Historical Painting Techniques, Materials, and Studio Practice written by Arie Wallert and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 1995-08-24 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridging the fields of conservation, art history, and museum curating, this volume contains the principal papers from an international symposium titled "Historical Painting Techniques, Materials, and Studio Practice" at the University of Leiden in Amsterdam, Netherlands, from June 26 to 29, 1995. The symposium—designed for art historians, conservators, conservation scientists, and museum curators worldwide—was organized by the Department of Art History at the University of Leiden and the Art History Department of the Central Research Laboratory for Objects of Art and Science in Amsterdam. Twenty-five contributors representing museums and conservation institutions throughout the world provide recent research on historical painting techniques, including wall painting and polychrome sculpture. Topics cover the latest art historical research and scientific analyses of original techniques and materials, as well as historical sources, such as medieval treatises and descriptions of painting techniques in historical literature. Chapters include the painting methods of Rembrandt and Vermeer, Dutch 17th-century landscape painting, wall paintings in English churches, Chinese paintings on paper and canvas, and Tibetan thangkas. Color plates and black-and-white photographs illustrate works from the Middle Ages to the 20th century.
Book Synopsis A nomenclator of extant and fossil taxa of the Valvatidae (Gastropoda, Ectobranchia) by : Gerhard Haszprunar
Download or read book A nomenclator of extant and fossil taxa of the Valvatidae (Gastropoda, Ectobranchia) written by Gerhard Haszprunar and published by PenSoft Publishers LTD. This book was released on 2014-02-05 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present catalog provides a compilation of all supra- and (infra-) specific taxa of extant and fossil Valvatidae (Ectobranchia), a group of freshwater operculate snails (Gastropoda, Heterobranchia). Taxa initially described in this family and bsequently classified in other families (in particular Hydrobiidae and Planorbidae, but among others also larval shells of trichopteran insects) as well as names due to errors or misspellings are likewise included. For each taxon the full original reference and the ype locality (and type horizon in fossils) is provided. Remarks on nomenclatorical problems and possible solutions are added if necessary. As a novelty the extensive reference list is as far as possible directly linked to the internet source (digital view or pdf-download) of the respective papers to facilitate future taxonomic research.
Book Synopsis Low-Tech Process-Based Restoration of Riverscapes by : Joseph M. Wheaton
Download or read book Low-Tech Process-Based Restoration of Riverscapes written by Joseph M. Wheaton and published by Usu Restoration Consortium. This book was released on 2019-06-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this design manual is to provide restoration practitioners with guidelines for implementing a subset of low-tech tools--namely beaver dam analogues (BDAs) and post-assisted log structures (PALS)--for initiating process-based restoration in structurally-starved riverscapes. While the concept of process-based restoration in riverscapes has been advocated for at least two decades, details and specific examples on how to implement it remain sparse. Here, we describe 'low-tech process-based restoration' as a practice of using simple, low unit-cost, structural additions (e.g. wood and beaver dams) to riverscapes to mimic functions and initiate specific processes. Hallmarks of this approach include: - An explicit focus on the processes that a low-tech restoration intervention is meant to promote.- A conscious effort to use cost-effective, low-tech treatments (e.g., hand-built, natural materials, non-engineered, short-term design life-spans) because of the need to efficiently scale-up application.- 'Letting the system do the work', which defers critical decision making to riverscapes and nature's ecosystem engineers.

Book Synopsis Connectivity Conservation by : Kevin R. Crooks
Download or read book Connectivity Conservation written by Kevin R. Crooks and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-11-02 with total page 675 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the biggest threats to the survival of many plant and animal species is the destruction or fragmentation of their natural habitats. The conservation of landscape connections, where animals, plants, and ecological processes can move freely from one habitat to another, is therefore an essential part of any new conservation or environmental protection plan. In practice, however, maintaining, creating, and protecting connectivity in our increasingly dissected world is a daunting challenge. This fascinating volume provides a synthesis on the current status and literature of connectivity conservation research and implementation. It shows the challenges involved in applying existing knowledge to real-world examples and highlights areas in need of further study. Containing contributions from leading scientists and practitioners, this topical and thought-provoking volume will be essential reading for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners working in conservation biology and natural resource management.

Book Synopsis Assessing Stream Channel Stability at Bridges in Physiographic Regions by : U. S. Department Transportation
Download or read book Assessing Stream Channel Stability at Bridges in Physiographic Regions written by U. S. Department Transportation and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-03-14 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of bridge inspections is to assess the safety of bridges on a regular basis so that any deficiencies will be identified and corrected. Given the large number of bridges over water in any State, bridge inspectors must inspect the superstructure, substructure, and waterway of each bridge in a short amount of time. A typical range of time for bridge inspections is 15 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the complexity and condition of the bridge. A more detailed inspection might ensue if a deficiency is detected. In the case of waterways and erosion, a hydraulic engineer might visit the bridge to assess the situation in greater detail. For either of these levels of inspection, and given the very limited right-of-way at most bridges, the inspector or engineer typically will not walk more than a few hundred feet upstream or downstream. Most inspectors do not leave the bridge right-of-way. Thus, a method is needed for systematically assessing the stability of the stream channel with respect to the bridge. The ability to assess channel stability in the vicinity of bridges also is needed for designing road crossings, and for mitigating and predicting erosion at those structures. Bridge failures due to geomorphic or regional instability have been experienced in many locations in the United States and elsewhere. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) guidelines for stream stability and erosion at bridges describe examples of problems at bridges caused by regional channel degradation and lateral bank changes. These guidelines require that engineers assess channel instability in their bridge assessments. However, for most bridges, only a preliminary assessment can be conducted due to time and money constraints. The objective of this study was to expand and improve previous rapid stability assessment methods to include additional factors, such as major physiographic units across the United States, range of bank materials and complexities, critical bank heights, stream type and processes, sand bed streams, and in-channel bars or lack of bars.
