Utility Of Tdwr And Asr-9 Data To Mitigate Bird Strikes At Commercial Airports, Mark A. Isaminger, Mark E. Weber Aug 2000

Utility Of Tdwr And Asr-9 Data To Mitigate Bird Strikes At Commercial Airports, Mark A. Isaminger, Mark E. Weber

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 2nd (2000)

Conflicts between birds and commercial aircraft are a noteworthy problem at both large and small airports. The risk factor for U.S. airports continues to increase due to the steady rise in take-off/landings and bird populations. The focus of bird strike mitigation in the past has centered primarily on Wildlife Management techniques. Recently, an Avian Hazard Advisory System (AHAS) has been developed to reduce the risks of bird strikes to military operations. This system uses a mosaic of data collected by the Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD). This sensor serves as an excellent tool for enroute bird advisories due to the …


The Avian Hazard Advisory System (Ahas): Operational Use Of Weather Radar For Reducing Bird Strike Risk In North America, T. Adam Kelly, Ron Merritt, Andreas Smith, Mark Howera, Ron White Aug 2000

The Avian Hazard Advisory System (Ahas): Operational Use Of Weather Radar For Reducing Bird Strike Risk In North America, T. Adam Kelly, Ron Merritt, Andreas Smith, Mark Howera, Ron White

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 2nd (2000)

The Avian Hazard Advisory System (AHAS) was developed to use NEXRAD weather radar data and National Weather Service (NWS) weather data to forecast and monitor bird activity. The system was tested in a pilot study in 1998 and became operational for the eastern 1/3 of the USA in March 2000. Two thousand low level routes, ranges, airspace and military airfields are evaluated every hour. The monitoring of birds in near real time uses algorithms developed by Geo-Marine, Inc to isolate biological targets from weather. Removing the weather returns permits subsequent processing to retrieve information on bird strike risk to be …


Factors Associated With Damaging Bird Strikes For United States Air Force Aircraft, Christine A. Tedrow, Patrick F. Scanlon, James A. Parkhurst, Steve L. Mcmullin Aug 2000

Factors Associated With Damaging Bird Strikes For United States Air Force Aircraft, Christine A. Tedrow, Patrick F. Scanlon, James A. Parkhurst, Steve L. Mcmullin

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 2nd (2000)

Analysis of strike data is critical to determine the true economic costs of bird strikes, determine the magnitude of safety issues, and develop preventive measures. Analysis of USAF bird-strike data identified trends and indicated suggested relationships among factors contributing to damaging strikes. From FY 1988 through FY 1997, the annual mean was 2,668 bird strikes with peaks evident in fall and spring. Daylight and dusk were hazardous for bird strikes. More bird strikes occurred during airfield operations and when aircraft were operating at low altitudes (and when soaring birds were more numerous). Aircraft speed, phase of flight, taxonomic group, bird …


Current Status Of The Usaf Bird Avoidance Model (Bam), Russell P. Defusco Aug 2000

Current Status Of The Usaf Bird Avoidance Model (Bam), Russell P. Defusco

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 2nd (2000)

The United States Air Force (USAF) Bird Aircraft Strike Hazard (BASH) Team has been developing versions of a Bird Avoidance Model (BAM) since the early 1980’s. In the developmental phases of the first models, it was recognized that avoiding birds on low-level routes and ranges was the only solution to the significant problem of bird strikes to these military operations nationwide. The early versions of BAM were limited in coverage, biological data, and resolution. With the advent of sophisticated Geographic Information System (GIS) technology and advances in computational capability, modern versions of the USAF BAM have become increasingly robust and …

Method For Modulating Eicosanoid Mediated Immune Responses In Arthropods, David W. Stanley

Department of Entomology: Faculty Publications

The invention is directed to compositions which alter the health of invertebrate organisms by affecting eicosanoid mediated immune responses, and methods of using the compositions. The invention provides pharmaceutical com positions and biopesticide compositions. The pharmaceuti cal composition is composed of an effective amount of at least one biologically active agent which enhances or inhib its eicosanoid-mediated immune responses in invertebrate Species and a physiological compatible carrier. The biope Sticide composition is composed of a biopesticidal amount of an inhibitor of eicosanoid-mediated immune responses in invertebrates and a physiologically acceptable carrier. The pharmaceutical compositions are useful to treat invertebrate Species …

The Phenomenology Of Panic Disorder In Adolescents, Wesley D Allan Aug 2000

The Phenomenology Of Panic Disorder In Adolescents, Wesley D Allan

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

The Phenomenology of Panic Disorder in Adolescents examines correlates of panic disorder in adolescents. Specifically, 20 adolescents with panic disorder were compared with 20 adolescents with a non-panic anxiety disorder (e.g., overanxious disorder). Results showed that adolescents with panic disorder displayed higher levels of anxiety sensitivity (i.e., anxiety pertaining to the symptoms of anxiety such as heart palpitations). Based on the obtained results, anxiety sensitivity is proposed as a potentially critical variable in the examination of adolescent panic disorder.

Cancer Surveillance Series: Non-Hodgkin’S Lymphoma Incidence By Histologic Subtype In The United States From 1978 Through 1995, Frank D. Groves, Martha S. Linet, Lois B. Travis, Susan S. Devesa Aug 2000

Cancer Surveillance Series: Non-Hodgkin’S Lymphoma Incidence By Histologic Subtype In The United States From 1978 Through 1995, Frank D. Groves, Martha S. Linet, Lois B. Travis, Susan S. Devesa

United States Public Health Resources

Background: Clinical investigations have shown prognostic heterogeneity within the non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas (NHLs) according to histology, but few descriptive studies have considered NHLs by subgroup. Our purpose is to assess the demographic patterns and any notable increases in population- based rates of different histologic subgroups of NHL.
Methods: Using data collected by the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program of the National Cancer Institute, we calculated incidence rates for the major clinicopathologic categories of NHL by age, race, sex, geographic area, and time period.
Results: Among the 60 057 NHL cases diagnosed during the period from 1978 through 1995, total incidence …
