Potential Impacts Of Climate Change On Agricultural Land Use Suitability : Wheat, Dennis Van Gool, Luke Vernon
Potential Impacts Of Climate Change On Agricultural Land Use Suitability : Wheat, Dennis Van Gool, Luke Vernon
Resource management technical reports
This publication considers the impact of climate change on wheat crops. While a model was first used, it was only partially validated against real data, hence the model is now used as a decision support system that allows people with crop, land resource and climate knowledge to determine potential impacts of climate change on crop growth and production in Western Australia.
Major Eastern Wheatbelt Soils To Characterise Soil Moisture Availability, Jeffrey Jon Russell
Major Eastern Wheatbelt Soils To Characterise Soil Moisture Availability, Jeffrey Jon Russell
Resource management technical reports
In the Eastern Wheatbelt of Western Australia, there are seven major soil groups (acid sands, good soilplain soils, gravelly sands, duplex soils, medium-heavy soils, heavy non-friable soils and heavy friable soils. This report considers the ability of various soils to store or retain water in an attempt to partially determine the yield potential of crops.

Medieval Warming, Little Ice Age, And European Impact On The Environment During The Last Millennium In The Lower Hudson Valley, New York, Usa, Dee Cabaniss Pederson, Dorothy M. Peteet, Dorothy Kurdyla, Tom Guilderson
Medieval Warming, Little Ice Age, And European Impact On The Environment During The Last Millennium In The Lower Hudson Valley, New York, Usa, Dee Cabaniss Pederson, Dorothy M. Peteet, Dorothy Kurdyla, Tom Guilderson
United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration: Publications
Establishing natural climate variability becomes particularly important in large urban areas in anticipation of droughts. We present a well-dated bi-decadal record of vegetation, climate, land use, and fire frequency from a tidal marsh in the Hudson River Estuary. The classic Medieval Warm Period is evident through striking increases in charcoal and Pinus dominance from ~800–1300 A.D., paralleling paleorecords southward along the Atlantic seaboard. Higher inputs of inorganic sediment during this interval suggest increased watershed erosion during drought conditions. The presence of the Little Ice Age ensues with increases in Picea and Tsuga, coupled with increasing organic percentages due to …

Generalized Geologic Map For Land-Use Planning: Clinton County, Kentucky, T. Jeffrey Adams, Bart Davidson, Daniel I. Carey
Generalized Geologic Map For Land-Use Planning: Clinton County, Kentucky, T. Jeffrey Adams, Bart Davidson, Daniel I. Carey
Map and Chart--KGS
This map is not intended to be used for selecting individual sites. Its purpose is to inform land-use planners, government officials, and the public in a general way about geologic bedrock conditions that affect the selection of sites for various purposes. The properties of thick soils may supercede those of the underlying bedrock and should be considered on a site-to-site basis. At any site, it is important to understand the characteristics of both the soils and the underlying rock.

Altered Hydrology In Connecticut Watersheds Prioritized For Protection, Denise Burchsted
Altered Hydrology In Connecticut Watersheds Prioritized For Protection, Denise Burchsted
Denise Burchsted
The Nature Conservancy (TNC) has selected the Saugatuck, Salmon, Eight Mile, Mount Hope / Natchaug, and Hollenbeck River watersheds for priority protection in Connecticut. A number of threats, including altered hydrology, have been identified in these watersheds. This project has been designed to better understand that threat and provide some context for future protection or restoration of the hydrology within those watersheds. The definition of altered hydrology is problematic, as the time at which the watersheds are considered unaltered is ambiguous and historic data is often unavailable. In order to address that difficulty, this project used the following approach: 1. …

Land Evaluation Standards For Land Resource Mapping : Assessing Land Qualities And Determining Land Capability In South-Western Australia, Dennis Van Gool, Peter J. Tille, Geoff Allen Moore
Resource management technical reports
This report describes the standard method for attributing and evaluating conventional land resource survey maps in the south-west agriculture region of Western Australia so that strategic decisions about the management, development and conservation of land resources can be based on the best information available. The standards described are similar to the land suitability assessment (stage one of the two stage) methods described by the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO, 1976, 1983).
