title: Moose Movement and Habitat Use in Old Crow Flats, 2007-2009

description: Current knowledge of moose migration in this region is limited to the observation that a majority of moose captured in northeastern Alaska migrate almost 200 kilometers to spend the summer in the OCF. We will capture 10 cow and 9 bull moose on the OCF in 2007-08 and fit them with satellite download GPS collars. These will provide two years of data on the seasonal and annual home ranges of collared moose, which will be related to vegetation and hydrological conditions using a resource selection function approach. Standard morphological measurements and blood, fecal, and hair samples collected during captures will provide necessary baseline data on the biology of moose inhabiting the OCF. Subsequent community-based monitoring of moose abundance and habitat use within the OCF will involve harvest surveys, moose browse and scat surveys, and occasional aerial surveys.
description: Purpose: This initiative will examine how moose habitat use within the OCF is related to variation in microclimate, hydrology, and shrub distribution, as well as the timing and spatial extent of moose migration.
description: Summary: As browsers of shrubby vegetation, moose are frequently found beyond the northern forest limit in localized areas of abundant shrub growth, frequently adjacent to rivers and lakes. Moose populations appear to be increasing in the OCF, as well as many other localities within Canada's forest-tundra transition. The increase in moose populations near the northern periphery of their range is frequently attributed to increased shrub growth resulting from climate change, but data linking moose abundance and space use to the distribution of shrubs are scarce, particularly within the forest-tundra transition zone.

title: Jornada Basin LTER Cross-scale Interactions Study (CSIS) Block 5 meteorological station: 5-minute summary wind and air temperature data: 2013 - ongoing

description: This data package contains 5-minute air temperature and wind summary data from Jornada Basin LTER Cross Scale Interactions Study (CSIS) Block-5 met station. Average air temperature, wind speed, and wind direction are measured and calculated at an automated meteorological station connected to a 900 MHz spread spectrum wireless network. Wind speed is measured at 37cm, 75 cm, 150 cm, and 300 cm, wind direction at approximately 3m, and air temperature and relative humidity at approximate 2.5m. This is a subset of baseline weather data collected at the 15 Jornada Basin LTER CSIS study blocks, New Mexico. Measurements are aggregated at intervals of 5, 30, 60 minutes and daily, with precipitation additionally provided with 1 second aggregation during precipitation events. The met station variables measured include air temperature, precipitation, relative humidity, wind direction, wind speed. Precipitation is not measured at Block 1 and Block 12 because of proximity to Block 2 and Block 13, respectively . This is an ONGOING dataset.

title: Kimbridge Farm Quarry, Dunbridge

description: Gravel pits at Dunbridge, in the River Test valley, produced over 1,000 Lower Palaeolithic hand axes when they were being worked in the first half of the 20th century. A planning application for renewed extraction in 1987 met with stiff academic opposition as it threatened what was considered to be one of the most important, yet understudied sites in the Solent basin. As a result Wessex Archaeology undertook a geoarchaeological watching brief during the 17 years of gravel extraction at the pit. Sections were recorded and sampled and 198 artefacts, principally hand axes, collected with the primary aim of enhancing understanding of the geological context of this important Lower Palaeolithic location. Results of specific note included recovery of artefacts demonstrating elements of 'proto-Levallois' technology from within the Belbin Gravel deposition. Fully developed Levallois technology was present across both the Belbin Gravel and the Mottisfont Formation at Dunbridge, the latter having an otherwise relatively sparse Palaeolithic content. Through the Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund (ALSF) administered by English Heritage the results of the watching brief were combined with optically stimulated luminescence dating and placed within their geological context.

title: Chapel, Royal South Hants Hospital, Fanshawe Street, Southampton (SOU1570)

description: The project was an archaeological building record, to level 2, of a hospital chapel built in 1857-1858 to designs by local church architects Hinve and Bedborough. It was built in Perpendicular style to serve the adjacent Royal South Hants Hospital. The chapel was accessed from the hospital at first floor level, and sat above an undercroft. The interior of the chapel had been much altered by the insertion of new panelling and furnishings in 1898, 1920 and 1923. A significant stained glass window, in memory of Fred Woolley, was inserted into the south window in 1955.

title: West Coast Palaeolandscapes Survey Main

description: In 2009 a pilot study for the West Coast area was commissioned by English Heritage building on the results of the North Sea Palaeolandscape Project (NSPP). It sought to investigate the methodology of utilising a wider variety of seismic data sources to determine the extent and nature of the submerged landscapes contained within an area of the Irish Sea. The results of the pilot project identified several areas within the UK where sufficient data, albeit often in the form of older 2D survey, would support comparative work. The west coast of Britain was identified as a particularly interesting area, both archaeologically and methodologically, and the Irish Sea and Bristol Channel areas were highlighted for further study. Any information gleaned on the palaeolandscape here would inform our understanding of the development of the Mesolithic and, potentially, the Palaeolithic, in both England and Wales. Information gained would also have considerable value for our understanding of the archaeological records of Ireland, Scotland and the Isle of Man. In addition any knowledge provided would assist heritage and mineral management strategy of offshore development control within these areas.

title: A Mid-Saxon Site at Anderson's Road, Southampton (SOU1240)

description: Excavations and a watching brief were undertaken during redevelopment at Anderson's Road, Southampton in 2003-4. The Site lies on the southern edge of mid-Saxon Hamwic, close to the river, and incorporated SOU14 which had been excavated in 1973. There was slight evidence for late prehistoric and Romano-British activity, but the majority of features on the site comprised pits of mid-Saxon date which contained domestic and a limited range of craft/industrial waste. Medieval features were restricted to a few ditches, probably field boundaries, sealed by saltmarsh deposits that have now been shown to be of post-medieval date.

title: Archaeological Collections Areas Database and Map

description: This digital archive contains details of three projects undertaken by the Society of Museum Archaeologists in 2002, 2006 and 2012, and an updated resource for the use of archaeologists working across England. This is the Archaeological Collections Areas Database and Map, first created ten years ago. The interactive Map provides an easy way to access details of organisations that are accepting archaeological archives (related to Local Authority boundaries) and indicates which areas do not currently have a repository available. It is intended that this information will be regularly checked, and that museum curators and archaeological contractors will report any changes to existing facilities or contact details. The Map also indicates whether or not there is an archaeological specialist at each location and it is planned that this information too, will be updated as appropriate. The survey carried out in 2012 investigated a wide range of issues relating to the deposition of archaeological archives in museums, and resulted in a series of recommendations for all archaeologists. The report, Archaeological Archives and Museums 2012, is available to download, alongside the previous survey reports.

title: SAC Steel Project Database

description: The SAC Joint Venture was formed in mid-1994 with the specific goal of investigating the damage to welded steel moment frame buildings in the 1994 Northridge earthquake and developing repair techniques and new design approaches to minimize damage to steel moment frame buildings in future earthquakes. From the outset, it was recognized that an interdisciplinary approach to the solution was required, involving practicing structural engineers, engineering researchers, and building officials and other representatives of regulatory agencies. The directors of the three Joint Venture partners - the Structural Engineers Association of California (SEAOC), the Applied Technology Council (ATC), and Consortium of Universities for Research in Earthquake Engineering (CUREE)- realized that their diverse memberships were uniquely qualified in this regard, and the SAC Joint Venture was formed. With funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the California Office of Emergency Services (OES), SAC initially embarked on a 2-year problem-focused research program to develop interim solutions for the identification, evaluation, repair, and modification of damaged welded steel moment frame buildings. Effort was also devoted to new design and construction approaches. Numerous other technical reports and guidelines have been produced. The project concluded in 2000.

title: Database for Structural Control and Monitoring Benchmark Problems

description: Tremendous progress has been made over the last two decades toward making structural monitoring and control a viable technology for enhancing structural functionality and safety against natural hazards such as strong earthquakes and high winds. Over the years, many algorithms and devices have been investigated, each with its own merits, depending on the particular application and desired effect. Until recently, definitive studies demonstrating the pros and cons of the different approaches have been unavailable. Clearly, the ability to make direct comparisons between strategies employing various algorithms and devices is necessary to focus future efforts in the most promising directions and to effectively set performance goals and specifications. Since 1995, several benchmark problems have been proposed by the structural control and monitoring communities (within the ASCE Committee on Structural Control and the IASCM Task Groups on Structural Control and on Structural Health Monitoring) to evaluate the relative effectiveness and implementability of various algorithms and to provide an analytical testbed for evaluation of various control design issues. These benchmark problems are collected here for the research community to download and use.

title: Electricity Transformer House, Ocean Terminal, Southampton (SOU1586)

description: The project was an archaeological building record, to level 2, of the former Electricity Transformer House, Ocean Road, Eastern Docks, Southampton on behalf of Associated British Ports. The building was constructed in 1950 as part of the Ocean Terminal complex that served the ocean going liners. The main Terminal building was demolished in 1983. The transformer house was built in a streamlined Art Deco style. Three of the original transformer units survived at ground floor level. A secondary use of the building was to provide public access to the Terminal by way of a pair of stairs that lead to a first floor bridge across the road and railway to the first floor of the Terminal building. The stairwells were provided with two toilets at first floor level.

title: Performance Database for Reinforced Concrete Columns with Spiral Reinforcement

description: This performance database contains material and geometric properties, experimental results and reference information from cyclic, lateral-load tests of reinforced concrete columns with spiral reinforcement or circular hoops. The properties, force-displacement histories, and experiment data files are provided in spreadsheet and graphical formats. The experiment data files can be downloaded in CSV format, which can be loaded into most applications, including Excel. The data file contains force-displacement pairs: the first column contains the displacement values (in mm), the second column contains the lateral-load values (in kN). Data files can be plotted and compared to one another using the inDEED earthquake data visualization tool. See inDEED for more information about the tool. The database was assembled by researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), who collected data from 92 tests (Taylor and Stone, 1993).

title: The Shear Wave Velocity Profiles Database

description: Shear wave velocity (Vs) profiles are needed for site response analyses and liquefaction susceptibility assessments. This database is a collection of Vs profiles from all curated projects in the NEES Project Warehouse, as well as some non-NEES projects. Shear wave profiles are often determined via in-situ methods such as cross-hole testing, downhole testing, suspension logging testing, and active and passive surface wave testing. With large mobile shakers available at the NEES@UTexas Equipment Site, shear wave velocity can be measured to a great depth using both downhole and active surface wave methods. The majority of Vs profiles available in this database were measured using the Spectral-Analysis-of-Surface-Waves (SASW) method. The SASW method is a well established active source surface wave measurement that utilizes Rayleigh waves to determine shear wave velocity profiles. The basis for the SASW method is the dispersive characteristic of Rayleigh waves when they are propagating in a layered system (i.e. soil or rock layers). Dispersion is the variation of velocity with frequency and it arises when waves of different wavelengths travel through different layers of the subsurface. High-frequency (short wavelength) waves propagate only through near-surface materials. Lower-frequency waves with longer wavelengths propagate through the near-surface as well as deeper soils. The SASW testing involves generating surface waves with a vertical excitation and then measuring the vertical surface motions. Receivers are arranged in a straight line which stretches outward from the source. The variation in phase shift with frequency for surface waves propagating between adjacent receivers is recorded for each receiver spacing. From each receiver pair, the phase velocity of the surface wave can be calculated. The phase velocity, VR, depends primarily on the material properties (shear wave velocity, mass density, and Poisson's ratio or compression wave velocity) over a depth of approximately one wavelength. From this calculation, a plot of phase velocity versus frequency, called a dispersion curve, is generated. This procedure is repeated for all source-receiver spacings used at the site and usually involves significant overlapping in the dispersion data between adjacent receiver sets. The individual dispersion curves from all receiver spacings are combined into a single composite dispersion curve called the experimental or field dispersion curve. A forward-modeling procedure is then used to match the field dispersion curve with a one-dimensional layered system of varying layer stiffnesses and thicknesses. The shear wave velocity profile that generates a dispersion curve that most closely matches the field dispersion curve is then presented as the shear wave velocity profile for the site.

title: The Haiti Earthquake Database

description: On January 12, 2010 an earthquake ravaged Haiti (USGS, 2010). In the aftermath of the earthquake, a team of professors and students from Purdue University, the University of Washington, and the University of Kansas went to Haiti. The goal of the team was to evaluate the Priority Index proposed by Hassan and Sözen (1997). The team took 6,526 photographs of 183 structures. These building were constructed using reinforced concrete and concrete masonry units. This database contains these photographs and all other information collected in the field. Thirteen buildings were not surveyed completely because they were not deemed representative. Of the 170 building surveyed in detail, 138 were located in Port-au-Prince and 38 were located in Léogâne. (O'Brien, et al. 2010) The average Priority Index for these buildings is 0.36% with a high of 2.32%, and a low of 0.06%. The number of floors ranged from 1 to 12, with an average close to 2. One hundred and sixteen buildings had 2 or fewer stories. Among them, the average Priority Index was 0.39%. Fifty one of these buildings had light structural damage, while 13 had moderate damage, and 47 had severe damage. For the 54 buildings with more than two stories, the average Priority Index was 0.25%. Of these, 21 had light structural damage, 13 had moderate damage and 20 had severe damage.

title: Bald Faced Stag, 36 Edward Street, Southampton (SOU1571)

description: The project was an archaeological building record, to level 2, of the cellar of the Bald Faced Stag public House at 36 Edward Road in the Freemantle area of Southampton. The public house dates from the 1870s when it was known as the "Stag Inn." Stylistic and map evidence suggests that the upper stories may have been rebuilt at some time between 1896 and 1909. The bricks used in the cellar were smaller than those of the ground floor, perhaps indicating that the cellar belonged to the original building phase of the 1870s. The cellar was originally accessed by a brick staircase at the north end, but this was replaced by a wooden stair against the west wall. This change may either have occurred during the refurbishment/rebuilding of about 1900, or when the bar area was reformed, probably in 1965.

title: Archaeological and cultural heritage investigations on the site of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games

description: The creation of the Olympic Park prompted a comprehensive programme of archaeological excavation, building recording and photographic survey. The work was undertaken in 5 stages (1 - DBAs, WSIs and Method Statements; 2 - Field evaluation; 3a - archaeological mitigation, assessment and reporting; 3b geoarchaeological/environmental assessment; 4 - Site wide integrated post-excavation assessment and updated project design; 5 - Analysis/dissemination; research archive preparation and deposition. The Olympic Park forms part of a landscape rich in archaeological and cultural heritage potential, and the investigations offered an opportunity to provide some context for earlier finds from the area. A series of broad research questions were outlined in the Environmental Statement based on priorities established in Museum of London's research framework (Museum of London 2002, 14-7). These concerned the presence of: palaeoenvironmental evidence for topographic and climate change preserved in the Lea Valley's alluvial deposits; in situ remains of prehistoric and later date, preserved within peat of alluvial deposits; remains of Roman roads, and evidence of Romano-British, settlement and land-use patterns, and burials; Saxon structures associated with the River Lea and its tributaries, and evidence for Saxon land-use, water management and milling; medieval features associated with the road along the Eastway; post-medieval land-use; and The 18th-20th century infrastructure features. The data set contains full specialist reports on the following categories: Post-Roman pottery, Glass, Clay tobacco pipes, Metalwork, Worked wood, Palaeoenvironmental remains A trench concordance has also been provided to facilitate use of the primary archive held by the London Archaeological Archive and Resource Centre.
