University Faculty Publications and Creative Works
This paper presents a time-varying harmonic analyzer based on the Sliding Window DFT implemented on a DSP platform. The harmonic decomposition is carried out using the TMS320F28027 digital signal processor, and the samples of the decomposed signal are sent to a PC based computer using serial interface. Several real cases are analyzed, revealing the time-varying behavior of the harmonic component. Different from commercial harmonic analyzer, the prototype presented in this paper uses a different way to visualize the harmonic components, based on time decomposition approach. This new visualization of time-varying harmonics might help engineers and researchers to develop new insights …

Preservd - Privacy Ensured Service Discovery In Mobile Peer-To-Peer Networks, Santhosh Muthyapu, Sanjay Kumar Madria, Mark Linderman
Preservd - Privacy Ensured Service Discovery In Mobile Peer-To-Peer Networks, Santhosh Muthyapu, Sanjay Kumar Madria, Mark Linderman
Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works
In mobile peer-to-peer networks, proposed service discovery protocols disregard the exposure of the participating peers' privacy details (privileged information). in these methods, the participating peers must provide their identities during the service discovery process to be authorized to utilize services. However, a peer may not be willing to reveal its privileged information until it identifies the service providing peer. So, these peers face a problem; should the service requesting or the service providing peer reveal the identity first. the protocol presented in [12] solves this problem to some extent and discover the services available in the service requester's vicinity in …
Using Phytotechnologies To Remediate Brownfields, Landfills, And Other Urban Areas, Ronald S. Zalesny Jr, Jill A. Zalesny
Using Phytotechnologies To Remediate Brownfields, Landfills, And Other Urban Areas, Ronald S. Zalesny Jr, Jill A. Zalesny
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
Urban areas requiring remedial work has prompted the use of phytotechnologies to improve water quality, soil health, and biodiversity, as well as to achieve sustainable social and economic goals. Phytotechnologies directly use plants to clean up contaminated groundwater, soil, and sediment. While woody and herbaceous crops are candidates for such remediation systems, trees within the genera Populus (poplars, cottonwoods, aspens) and Salix (willows) are ideal given their fast growth, extensive root systems, and elevated rates of photosynthesis and transpiration. The genetic diversity within these genera substantially increases the establishment and growth potential across heterogeneous sites. We have tested these trees …
Human Health & Well-Being: Evidence For An Expanded Framework Of Ecosystem Services In Cities, Kathleen L. Wolf
Human Health & Well-Being: Evidence For An Expanded Framework Of Ecosystem Services In Cities, Kathleen L. Wolf
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
Scientific research across recent decades has provided evidence of the broad array of benefits provided by urban greening. "Ecosystem services" is a concept that provides a framework for understanding and strategically generating nature based functions and benefits. Several classifications of ecosystem services have been proposed (including the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, 2005). Within the urban context, environmental benefits and services are becoming better understood and more recognized. Unfortunately, human health and well being (HHWB) benefits are often reduced to a simple matter of aesthetics in public dialog. A comprehensive research literature review and summary is being prepared to serve as a …
Restoring Native Plant And Pollinator Communities On New York City Green Roofs, Melanie C. Smith, Matthew I. Palmer
Restoring Native Plant And Pollinator Communities On New York City Green Roofs, Melanie C. Smith, Matthew I. Palmer
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
Urban development has dramatically decreased habitat for native plants and other wildlife. One of the native insect groups affected by this change are the bees and wasps (Order: Hymenoptera), which provide valuable ecosystem services like pollination of crops and ornamental plants. These insects are experiencing rapid population declines in urbanizing areas. A major obstacle to restoring pollinator populations in cities is the scarcity of space available that can be managed as habitat. A potential solution to this is to create patches of native vegetation on green roofs. Green roofs consist of live plants, growing media, and a drainage layer on …

Cities and the Environment (CATE)
The City of New York Parks & Recreation’s (Parks) Natural Resources Group (NRG) is leading a large scale, citywide reforestation effort as part of the MillionTreesNYC goal to plant 450,000 trees in parks across the city. The reforestation monitoring study was developed as one tool to test the success of the reforestation efforts. This study addresses the basic survivability and health of the trees since planting began in the fall of 2007. This study captured the container trees planted by In house staff, volunteer groups, and contractors.
What Is Urban Environmental Stewardship? Working Toward A Practitioner-Derived Definition In Seattle, Michele Romolini, Weston Brinkley, Kathleen Wolf
What Is Urban Environmental Stewardship? Working Toward A Practitioner-Derived Definition In Seattle, Michele Romolini, Weston Brinkley, Kathleen Wolf
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
While “stewardship” is often used to describe environmental improvement efforts, it is difficult to find an agreed upon definition of the term. Current research examines stewardship programs, activities, networks, and outcomes. A comprehensive definition should take into account the perspectives of all stakeholders. Practitioners and project managers have particularly direct experiences of stewardship, however little has been done to determine how they define the term and its implementation. Establishing a shared concept of stewardship is essential to further research, and the intent of this preliminary study is to begin to develop a definition. Researchers conducted semi-structured interviews with representatives of …

Community Gardens: An Exploration Of Urban Agriculture In The Bronx, New York City, Michelle Ma Ottmann, Juliana A. Maantay, Kristen Grady, Nerio A. Cardoso, Nilce N. Fonte
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
Urban agriculture/community gardening in the Bronx has multiple roles, including health-promoting, economic, environmental, and cultural. These roles are particularly important in light of urban sustainability issues and environmental justice concerns, such as differential access to open space, recreation, and fresh produce in poorer communities and communities of color, as well as differential environmental and health impacts of unsustainable practices on these communities. The gardens generally help promote a sense of place - a focus for communities - which often have little access to safe parks or recreational space within their neighborhoods, and create a center for community cultural and educational …
Diversity And Conservation Of Butterflies In The New York City Metropolitan Area, Kevin C. Matteson, Nell Roberts
Diversity And Conservation Of Butterflies In The New York City Metropolitan Area, Kevin C. Matteson, Nell Roberts
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
Butterflies are charismatic microfauna that provide opportunities for humans living in urbanized landscapes to directly experience biodiversity. However, very little has been published on which butterfly species currently persist in densely populated urban landscapes, such as the New York City metropolitan area. As a first step towards conservation of butterflies in this heavily populated landscape, we analyzed data on butterfly sightings in the five boroughs of New York City and adjacent counties from January 2001 to November 2009. In total, we compiled 12,732 reported sightings (5822 from within NYC limits) representing 106 butterfly species (87 from within NYC limits) that …
Design In Urban In Ecology, Victoria J. Marshall
Design In Urban In Ecology, Victoria J. Marshall
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
Social ecologists, economists and epidemiologists note that systems are ‘leaky’ particularly at the stage of reorganization, therefore for long term research, the challenge is not to gather information over time but rather, to measure in time, particularly with relation to collective memory and lagged effects. Similarly art and design research with an ecosystem approach has seen a shift in attention from a subject’s location in space toward an understanding of the subject being duration in time. These drawings explore various experiments into this approach at Parsons the New School for Design in 2009 and 2010. Consciously seeking alternatives to geographical …
Sustainable Urban Forest Management Planning Using Criteria And Indicators, W Andrew Kenny, Philip J. Van Wassenaer, Alexander Satel
Sustainable Urban Forest Management Planning Using Criteria And Indicators, W Andrew Kenny, Philip J. Van Wassenaer, Alexander Satel
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
This poster discusses how Criteria and Indicators (C&I) for success in sustainable urban forest management, first outlined by Clark et al. (1997), can be successfully applied as tools to improve Strategic Urban Forest Management planning. It presents updates and modifications to the original tables, developed by van Wassenaer, Kenney and Satel (in press) to improve their application in strategic planning. A case study demonstrates how C&I were used to evaluate current management practices in the Town of Oakville, Ontario. This poster also outlines the strategic planning framework used in the preparation of the Oakville Plan, and presents it as a …
Evaluation Of The Stormwater Capture Potential Of New York City Soils: Implications Of Infiltration Rate Variability On Urban Runoff Predictions, Kimberly A. Digiovanni, Franco Montalto, Alisha Goldstein
Evaluation Of The Stormwater Capture Potential Of New York City Soils: Implications Of Infiltration Rate Variability On Urban Runoff Predictions, Kimberly A. Digiovanni, Franco Montalto, Alisha Goldstein
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
The properties used to characterize soils and, more specifically, those that are used to describe the rate at which water infiltrates into them, are key parameters in most rainfall-runoff models. Because these parameters are known to be highly variable, they are a known source of uncertainty in our ability to predict runoff from pervious surfaces. The goals of this study were to a) characterize the heterogeneity in soil and infiltration characteristics in specific types of pervious surfaces found in New York City, and b) to study the potential effect of this heterogeneity on prediction of the total volume and peak …

The Urbis Partnership Proposal For Global Designation, Christine Alfsen, Laura C. Dickinson, Keith G. Tidball
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
The URBIS Partnership is proposing a designation process to recognize urban regions’ efforts to engage in participatory, inclusive, and comprehensive approaches in urban planning for sustainability. Through this process, sustainable management practices would be developed and then cataloged for sharing and dissemination as part of a site-based global knowledge network. The URBIS Partnership is inviting expertise in fields including urban ecology, environmental education, policy, and urban planning to develop this process. Currently, urban regions involved include Stockholm, Montreal, Shanghai, Cape Town, Chicago, Istanbul, New Orleans, and New York. This effort will culminate in the establishment of the URBIS Partnership with …
