  • The climate of North America and adjacent ocean waters ca. 6 ka

    Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences

    The climate of North America and the adjacent ocean at 6000 BP was estimated using five independent approaches. Using pollen data, the terrestrial climate was estimated by the movement of ecozone boundaries and by the method of modern analogues. Both analyses indicate warmer temperatures in the western Great Lakes area and the northern Great Plains. A model of Sphagnum-dominated peatland initiation, when forced by Canadian Climate Model 6 ka output projected a cooler and (or) wetter climate for…

    The climate of North America and the adjacent ocean at 6000 BP was estimated using five independent approaches. Using pollen data, the terrestrial climate was estimated by the movement of ecozone boundaries and by the method of modern analogues. Both analyses indicate warmer temperatures in the western Great Lakes area and the northern Great Plains. A model of Sphagnum-dominated peatland initiation, when forced by Canadian Climate Model 6 ka output projected a cooler and (or) wetter climate for continental western North America. Contrary to this, a reconstruction of the distribution of Sphagnum-dominated peatlands in western Canada indicates that they were located north of their modern distribution, suggesting warmer and (or) drier conditions at 6000 BP. This interpretation is strengthened by observations of lower lake levels at 6000 BP in western Canada. This drier climate may have been associated with warmer conditions as indicated by the quantitative climate reconstructions. In general, eastern North America was drier, while western North America was warmer and drier at 6 ka compared to the present. A model of vegetation and carbon storage, when forced using 6 ka Canadian Climate Model and pollen-based climate reconstructions, showed an increase in area covered by boreal forest, extending north and south of the present location. This was not, however, verified by the fossil data. Additionally, the model showed little total change in carbon storage at 6 ka in the terrestrial biosphere. Estimated sea surface temperatures off eastern Canada suggest warmer surface waters at 6 ka, in agreement with reconstructions based on terrestrial records from the eastern seaboard.

  • Creation of a Fixed Route Scheduling Database by the Precision Merging of Schedule, Bus Stop and Base Map Data Sets to Support Scheduling Operations

    ESRI Proceedings

    The project objective was to successfully merge varied databases to support the Computerized Telephone Information System (CTIS) and other METRO Enterprise GIS applications. The design and development of a Microsoft® Visual Basic® program to convert schedule data from a commercially available software package into Oracle® will be explained. Special focus will be provided on the integration of schedule, bus stop and street base map databases that are maintained by individual METRO departments…

    The project objective was to successfully merge varied databases to support the Computerized Telephone Information System (CTIS) and other METRO Enterprise GIS applications. The design and development of a Microsoft® Visual Basic® program to convert schedule data from a commercially available software package into Oracle® will be explained. Special focus will be provided on the integration of schedule, bus stop and street base map databases that are maintained by individual METRO departments and other governmental entities. Discussion will include the resulting procedures, route model, turn table modifications and AML™ tools developed to create routes and sequence bus stops and turn points.

  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING VEHICLE SECURITY

    Issued US US2016012653 (A1)

    Apparatus, systems and methods are disclosed that utilize a vehicle user's input to provide logical context of legitimate vehicle usage through a remote access device to defend the vehicle from theft. As such, an additional level of security is employed and may be used in addition to other security and theft prevention technologies of the vehicle.

    Apparatus, systems and methods are disclosed that utilize a vehicle user's input to provide logical context of legitimate vehicle usage through a remote access device to defend the vehicle from theft. As such, an additional level of security is employed and may be used in addition to other security and theft prevention technologies of the vehicle. In one example, a legitimate automobile operator signals the context of the vehicle's state to a hardware security module in the vehicle. The states include, for example, to disallow all diagnostic system access or to allow diagnostic access for servicing.
