Book Synopsis Cleaning, Standardization, and Assessment of the Accuracy and Consistency of the Yellowstone National Park Dataset (log Book) by : E. K. Esawi
Download or read book Cleaning, Standardization, and Assessment of the Accuracy and Consistency of the Yellowstone National Park Dataset (log Book) written by E. K. Esawi and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Book Synopsis Yellowstone and the Biology of Time by : Mary Meagher
Download or read book Yellowstone and the Biology of Time written by Mary Meagher and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1999-02-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Established in 1872, Yellowstone National Park is the oldest and one of the largest national parks in the world. In this remarkable book, scientists Mary Meagher and Douglas B. Houston present 100 sets of photographs that compare the Yellowstone of old with the park of today. Most of the photo sets include three pictures-not the usual two-with many of the original views dating back to the 1870s and 1880s. From the same photo points used by early photographers, Meagher and Houston rephotographed the scenes in the 1970s, and then, following the great fires of 1988, again in the 1990s. The result is an illuminating record of Yellowstone's dynamic ecosystem and its changes over time. Through close analysis of the photos and reference to the vast amount of available data, Meagher and Houston describe changes in vegetation, growth of wildlife populations, the effect of beaver occupancy on wetland areas, and geothermal and elevational shifts. At the same time they point out the extent to which many sites have not changed-despite important switches in park policy and an increase in human activity. Yellowstone National Park has long been the focus of major ecological debates. Should managers allow wildfires to burn? Should the elk and bison populations be controlled? Are too many people visiting the park? Yellowstone And The Biology Of Time offers a wealth of information to help us answer these questions. A visual treasure, this book will be of value to scientists from various disciplines as well as to the many people who care about Yellowstone and other protected wilderness areas around the world.
Book Synopsis Historical Archeology of Tourism in Yellowstone National Park by : Annalies Corbin
Download or read book Historical Archeology of Tourism in Yellowstone National Park written by Annalies Corbin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Far too often in the ?eld of archeology, the wheel of understanding and insight has a narrow focus that fails to recognize critical studies. Crucial information rega- ing pivotal archeological investigations at a variety of sites worldwide is extremely dif?cult, if not impossible, to obtain. The majority of archeological analysis and reporting, at best, has limited publication. The majority of archeological reports are rarely seen and when published are often only in obscure or out-of-print journals – the reports are almost as hard to ?nd as the archeological sites themselves. There is a desperate need to pull seminal archeological writings together into single issue or thematic volumes. It is the int- tion of this series, When the Land Meets the Sea, to address this problem as it relates to archeological work that encompasses both terrestrial and underwater archeology on a single site or on a collection of related sites. For example, despite the fact that we know that bays and waterways structured historic settlement, there is a lack of archeological literature that looks at both the nautical and terrestrial signatures of watersheds in?uence on historic culture.
Book Synopsis Invisible Boundaries by : Karen B. McWhorter
Download or read book Invisible Boundaries written by Karen B. McWhorter and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-01 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is widely assumed that Yellowstone National Park is a year-round sanctuary for wildlife'a landscape that protects animals within park boundaries from human impacts. But the Park alone can neither contain nor sustain many of the wide-ranging species that people generally associate with it. Populations of large mammals, raptors, waterfowl, and many other species require space far beyond park boundaries during at least part of each year, to secure the resources necessary to survive and reproduce. To these creatures, the boundaries of our parks, forests, and ranches are invisible.In this publication and the museum exhibition it accompanies, noted authorities in several fields explore the invisible boundaries of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem from diverse perspectives. Eminent conservation biologist Thomas Lovejoy places Greater Yellowstone in a global context, identifying the implications of animal movements for ecosystem conservation in our fragmented world. Ecologist and wildlife biologist Charles Preston reviews the genesis of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem concept and how it holds up to our current knowledge of wildlife movements and changing environments inside and outside Yellowstone National Park. Ecologist Arthur Middleton explains why elk and their spectacular annual migrations through the rugged country in and around Yellowstone are ideal vehicles to help us understand the challenges of cross-boundary movements. Wildlife photojournalist Joe Riis takes us along on the journeys of elk and other wildlife through Greater Yellowstone's magnificent backcountry, sharing his ground-breaking photography along with insights from nearly a decade of field work documenting these monumental journeys. Further extending the dialogue, artist James Prosek explores elk and other animal migrations through original artwork, freeing us from scientific and documentary boundaries to consider Yellowstone, conservation, and nature's fluidity from a different plane of human experience. Art historian Karen McWhorter ties everything together with observations and historical perspectives on collaborations among scientists, artists, and photographers toward increasing appreciation and understanding of the complex natural phenomenon of Yellowstone's great animal migrations.

Book Synopsis Yellowstone Wolves by : Douglas W. Smith
Download or read book Yellowstone Wolves written by Douglas W. Smith and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-12-28 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This beautifully illustrated volume on the Yellowstone Wolf Project includes an introduction by Jane Goodall and an exclusive online documentary. The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone National Park was one of the greatest wildlife conservation achievements of the twentieth century. Eradicated after the park was first established, these iconic carnivores returned in 1995 when the US government reversed its century-old policy of extermination. In the intervening decades, scientists have built a one-of-a-kind field study of these wolves, their behaviors, and their influence on the entire ecosystem. Yellowstone Wolves tells the incredible story of the Yellowstone Wolf Project, as told by the people behind it. This wide-ranging volume highlights what has been learned in the decades since reintroduction, as well as the unique blend of research techniques used to gain this knowledge. We learn about individual wolves, population dynamics, wolf-prey relationships, genetics, disease, management and policy, and the rippling ecosystem effects wolves have had on Yellowstone’s wild and rare landscape. Featuring a foreword by Jane Goodall, beautiful images, a companion online documentary by celebrated filmmaker Bob Landis, and contributions from more than seventy wolf and wildlife conservation luminaries from Yellowstone and around the world, Yellowstone Wolves is an informative and beautifully realized celebration of the extraordinary Yellowstone Wolf Project.
