Project ID: J8W07110030 [project-data-part-1] Initial Funding: $369,990 Total Funding: $369,990 [project-data-part-2] Abstract: The National Park Service (NPS), the Department of Interior, and the President of the United States have sought to increase science-based resource management in NPS units to improve the understanding of park resources and incorporation of such information by park managers in making…
Assessment of Semi-Volatile Organic Compounds in Fish from High Elevation Lakes in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks
Project ID: J8W07110031 [project-data-part-1] Initial Funding: $38,070 Total Funding: $38,070 [project-data-part-2] Abstract: Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks (SEKI) was one of the eight primary parks intensively sampled as part of the Western Airborne Contaminants Assessment Project (WACAP). Two SEKI lakes (Emerald and Pear) were sampled for a suite of semi-volatile organic compounds (SOC) resulting…
Transportation as a Barrier to Visiting National Parks by Communities of Color
Project ID: J8W07110032 [project-data-part-1] Initial Funding: $98,256 Total Funding: $98,256 [project-data-part-2] Abstract: Research has shown transportation to be a barrier to visitation to parks and public lands for many communities of color. Research that examines transportation issues for communities of color can assist parks in removing barriers to access, allowing parks to better engage traditionally…
Puget Sound Basin Air Pollution Model
Project ID: J9088020004 [project-data-part-1] Initial Funding: $10,000 Total Funding: $10,000 [project-data-part-2] Abstract: The objective of the Puget Sound Basin Air Pollution Model project is to educate the public on the ill effects of automobile emissions on national park resources through the development of three-dimensional animations of air pollutant flows in the Puget Sound Basin.
Cultural Landscape Analysis and Treatment Guidelines for Crater Lake National Park
Project ID: J9088020005 [project-data-part-1] Initial Funding: $14,996 Total Funding: $25,249 [project-data-part-2] Abstract: The NPS is documenting and evaluating the historical significance of Rim Drive in Crater Lake National Park. Work described under this task agreement will be used to develop a cyclic preservation maintenance program for long-term maintenance of the cultural landscape of Rim Drive.
Atmospheric Transport Component
Project ID: J9088020006 [project-data-part-1] Initial Funding: $54,287 Total Funding: $275,798 [project-data-part-2] Abstract: Design and implement a network of western national parks to provide spatially extensive, site specific, and temporally resolved data on exposure, accumulation, and impacts of airborne contaminants in these ecosystems. Deliverables: Historic Transportation Resources in Skagway and Dyea (Final Report)
