The Hydro-Ecology Of Everyday Life: Assessing The Social And Environmental Determinants Of Water Use In The Portland Region, Vivek Shandas

Systems Science Friday Noon Seminar Series

Driven in part by the imminent threats of population growth and climate destabilization, recent studies suggest that urban areas face severe water scarcity, with some areas in Australia and the United States already instituting moratoria on water use. While water managers traditionally avoid such crises by developing demand forecasts based on population estimates, technological developments, and weather predictions, their analysis are often at a regional scale with aggregate measures of water consumption. To date, there exists limited empirical evidence about how urban spatial structure and concomitant socio-demographic and temperature characteristics mutually interact to affect water demand at the scale of …

The Presidential Range: Its Geologic And Tectonic History, J. Dykstra Eusden

Faculty Books

The complete hiker’s guide and map to the bedrock geology of the Presidential Range, New Hampshire —

This guide and its accompanying geologic map describe the bedrock geology and plate tectonic history of the Presidential Range, the highest peaks in the northeastern United States. The color illustrations and writing style make this accessible to all enthusiasts of the mountains. The map (21.5 x 28) shows the bedrock geology and highlights locations where hikers may view key exposures of bedrock in the field.

The Effect Of Bioretention Areas On The Heavy Ion Concentration, Ph, And Water Quality Of The Furman University Lake, Adam Williams, Ashley Brown, Matthew Stutz

Furman Lake Restoration Book Gallery

A one page summary by four Furman students describing their research on the effectiveness of the bioretention areas, or rain gardens, created as part of the Lake Restoration Project.

The Distribution Of Macroalgae In Furman Lake, Anthony Guida, Jeff Hennessy, Meredith Yingling, Vanessa Argüello

Furman Lake Restoration Book Gallery

A three page summary by four Furman students describing their research on macroalge in the Furman Lake. The goal is to test whether or not the restoration efforts have significantly changed the algae cover in the lake.

The Effect Of The Lake Restoration Project On Passerine Bird Diversity, Gina Tong, Brittany Martin, Stephanie Field, Whitney Snow, Whitney Millegan, Chris Cowart

Furman Lake Restoration Book Gallery

A three page summary by six Furman students showing their research results on the lake restoration's effects on passerine bird populations.

The Effect Of The Lake Restoration Project On Habitat Use By Waterfowl, Denae Buzzell, Clay Evans, Hannah Shirley, Lin Lin Zhao

Furman Lake Restoration Book Gallery

A two page summary by four Furman students describing their research on waterfowl around the Furman Lake. The summary gives a brief history waterfowl populations and explains the adverse effects of large waterfowl populations on calm bodies of water. The summary concludes with test results showing the success of the lake restoration efforts dealing with waterfowl overpopulation.

Phosphorus For High Rainfall Pastures, Mike Bolland, Bill Russell, David Weaver

Bulletins 4000 -

Soil testing for phosphorus provides a reliable indication of when the level of phosphorus in a soil is likely to be adequate for pasture production in the next growing season. It is a waste of money to apply phosphorus fertiliser when soil testing indicates none is required, or to acidified soils, or to undergrazed pastures, or to pastures dominated by poorly productive species.

Legumes have higher phosphorus requirement than grasses.

Critical soil test phosphorus values do not change when nitrogen fertiliser is applied.
