(New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, 2010)This report describes methods used in the production of spatially explicit datasets and imagery for Geographic Information Systems (GIS) highlighting areas in the Catskill Mountains sensitive to disturbance (acidic deposition, ...
-
(Bulletin of the American Geographical Society, 1907)This paper presents prominent landscape features and lore of the Catskills region. Included is a neat old topographic map.
-
(American Midland Naturalist, 1962)Gleaning from land survey records (samples) taken from land patents, the author is able to make inferences of predominant forest cover in the Catskill Mountains (between 1000 and 3000 ft) in the late 18th century.
-
(The Nature Conservancy, Eastern New York Chapter, 2010)This report explains the methods used to classify and plot forest regeneration index categories, resulting in mapping and analysis of forest inventory locations with relation to forest cover and state ecoregions.
-
(Ecological Monographs, 1972)Based on field surveys from 1960-1963, species presence, density and stand dominance for trees, shrubs and herbs were determined. Tree stand distribution by altitude for certain predominant species and interspecies ...
-
(Hudsonia, 2008)Drawing from previous studies, this report provides a condensed description of environmental science processes and has useful information related to ecosystem functions. There is emphasis on ecological consequences of ...
-
(Geographical Review, 1959)This report succinctly presents a geographic perspective on the factors which influence water supply and quality in the New York City water supply network.
-
(Gap Analysis Bulletin No. 13, New York Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit, Department of Natural Resources, Cornell University, 2005)The habitat vulnerability assessment in this analysis is based on residential expansion. The authors developed a census-based model to locate/predict where residential development was likely to affect vulnerable habitats. ...
-
(New York National Heritage Program, 2009)The NYNHP conducted natural community inventories and ecological quality rank assessments along the West Kill main stem in order to classify, map and provide descriptions of reference riparian habitat types within the ...
-
(U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Research and Development, 2001)This report presents multi-scale evaluations of land cover/use primarily in relation to three water quality measurements: total nitrogen, phosphorus, and fecal coliform. Analysis of landscape changes over the 23-yr study ...
-
(U.S. Geological Survey, 2006)A more glossy demonstration of how regression analysis is performed using regional physiographic and climatic watershed characteristics to predict magnitude and frequency of floods at gaged and ungaged sites. Skewness ...
-
(Scientific Monthly, 1927)This work tells the story of the discovery of the fossil forests of Gilboa - stumps and seeds of a plant resembling a tree fern from the Devonian period that were preserved in shale.
-
(Proceedings of the American Water Resources Association, 2003)This study shows reasonably good results of how drainage area alone can be used in the Catskill Mountains to determine bankfull discharge and associated hydraulic geometry criteria via regressions. These measurements are ...
-
(Journal of the American Geographical Society of New York, 1897)This report explains the different phases of orogeny and disintegration/erosion, comparing and contrasting with different processes that have influenced composition and appearance.
-
(Journal of the American Geographical Society of New York, 1898)Among other topics this report explains origins of lacustrine clay and glacial till prominent in the Catskill Mountains and Schoharie Creek Watershed.
-
(Journal of the American Geographical Society of New York, 1896)A natural history narrative with accounts of the Catskill geologic formations and river drainages, with hypotheses on historical geology and detailed climate analysis.
-
(Esri Press, 2009)This brief article describes how a custom GIS application was designed to assist NYSDEC staff identify critical habitat of threatened species and assess impacts of proposed projects when conducting regulatory reviews.
-
(U.S. Geological Survey, 1991)This study demonstrates how regression analysis is performed using regional physiographic and climatic watershed characteristics to predict flood-frequency of unregulated streams.
-
(USFWS Southern New England – New York Bight Coastal Ecosystem Program, 1997)The focus of this project was to identify and delineate significant populations and habitats of endangered /threatened species. In addition the report provides background on common fauna and a concise description of the ...
-
(Remote Sensing of Environment, 2005)This study demonstrates the use of infrared imagery to predict hemlock decline (implied association with pathogenic Hemlock Wooly Adelgig) within hemlock-abundant stands.
