AbstractThe presence of landscape disturbances increases the establishment of exotic plants inside natural areas. Here, we examine the effect of human disturbances to prairie landscapes on the distribution and abundance of Kentucky bluegrass and smooth brome, exotic grasses that threaten the integrity of prairie ecosystems throughout the northern Great Plains. Using plant inventory data from Riding Mountain National Park in Manitoba, Canada, we investigated how roads, trails, and the intensity of historic livestock grazing affect the distribution and abundance of exotic grasses.

The paper deals with roads and trails that used to lead to Bela Krajina and Žumberak across the Gorjanci Ridge. Seven main routes have been identified that were sometimes more and sometimes less frequented, depending on the time and political circumstances. In all periods, however, the most important link between the regions of Dolenjska and Bela Krajina was the communication through the Vahta Pass, which gradually changed from a prehistoric path to a road. It was only in the 1880s that it underwent a thorough reconstruction, during which the most dangerous gradients were smoothed out with a s

A city of promenades proposes the remembrance and use of public space, such as the recuperation of lost cultural and geographic landscapes.

Abstract Herders-farmers violent conflicts and flare-ups have spread throughout central and southern communities in Nigeria, but exclude the urban areas. I examine ‘herders – urban residents’ conflicts. Herders roam their cattle from outskirts to city roads, disrupting traffic and leaving behind trails of excrement and offensive smells causing dangerous nuisance. I argue that the new practice of cattle herders’ encroachments on city roads poses some socio-economic risks such as environmental decay, air pollution, displacement of urban livelihoods, road accidents and non-violent conflicts.

This paper traces the beginning of the provincial enthusiasm for road racing back to the 1930s, when the provincial government, despite the national ban on road racing, increasingly allowed races on provincial and local roads.

This Geographical Information Systems study compares a sample of archaeological sites within 1 km of the GLO trails in northern Iowa with a control sample.

Abstract:
Axle bearings may constitute a critical component with regards to safety due to the fact that they can present sudden failures. Hot box detectors are wayside devices that aim at identifying axle bearings with a high potential of failure. Therefore, it is important to place these sensors along the network in order to minimize the risk of axle bearing failures that could derive in train derailments. How many and where to install these wayside devices depends on the requirements of each country and on the available investment capacity. However, there is no tool in the market that helps the Infras

Abstract:
Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge (“the Refuge”) in Colorado near Denver, Colorado, has a history (1952-1 989) of producing components for nuclear weapons. The current goal for the area is “to restore and preserve the native prairie ecosystems, provide habitat for migratory and resident wildlife, conserve and protect habitat for Preble’s meadow jumping mouse, and provide research and education opportunities”. The grasslands of the Refuge are surrounded by busy roads to the west (Hwy 93, 18,000 AADT), north (Hwy 128, 4,200 AADT) and east (Indiana St. 7,000 AADT), and there are houses and ass

Abstract:
This report explores the opportunities for wildlife mitigation in and around two national park units in West Virginia; Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, and New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. The wildlife mitigation measures that will be explored are aimed at: 1. Reducing wildlife-vehicle collisions with large mammals (i.e. coyote and larger), and thereby also improving human safety; 2. Reducing direct road mortality for Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN); and 3. Reducing the barrier effect of roads and traffic and increasing habitat connectivity across major highways

Abstract:
The on-site inspection resulted in the documentation of one historic-age property—the Pinnacle Overlook Developed Area. The property is located at the terminus of Pinnacle View Road (formerly known as Skyland Road) and consists of a parking area, an overlook observation platform, a network of trails, and an interpretive shelter and comfort station. At the request of the Park’s cultural resources staff, the property was documented as a historic district. The Pinnacle Overlook Developed Area is recommended eligible for listing in the NRHP under Criterion A for its association with the recreation

Abstract:
Invasive exotic plant (IEP) species are one of the biggest threats to natural ecosystem integrity and biodiversity. Controlling them is a high priority for the National Park Service. The Northern Colorado Plateau Network (NCPN) selected the early detection of IEPs as one of 11 monitoring protocols to be implemented as part of its long-term monitoring program. This report represents work completed during the 2021 field season at Golden Spike National Historical Park (NHP). On June 24–25, 2021, we recorded a total of six priority IEP species during monitoring at the park. A total of 191 priority

Abstract:
The purpose of the National Park Service?s Mediterranean Coast Network Invasive Plant Monitoring Program is to determine the status and trends in the distribution and cover of a targeted list of nonnative plant species in the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area (SAMO), and to provide information to assist park managers with control of invasive plants. The monitoring is conducted at all point of entry survey sites (trailheads, parking lots, ports and campgrounds) and at randomly selected locations along dirt roads and trails on public lands throughout SAMO.

Abstract:
Anthropogenic features such as roads and trails, and human activity may affect space use, demography, abundance, and other wildlife population parameters. Human infrastructure and activity may result in biased population estimates by influencing habitat use of a species and thus abundance estimates within a localized area or the ability of biologist to detect individuals during standard population surveys. To evaluate the effects of anthropogenic features on mountain grouse detections, we developed and conducted replicated surveys throughout western Montana during 2020. Biologists and voluntee

Abstract:
The rapid growth in population and related demand for travel during the past few decades has had a catalytic effect on traffic congestion, air quality, and safety in many urban areas. Transportation managers and planners have planned for new facilities to cater to the needs of users of alternative modes of transportation (e.g., public transportation, walking, and bicycling) over the next decade. However, there are no widely accepted methods, nor there is enough evidence to justify whether such plans are instrumental in improving mobility of the transportation system. Therefore, this project re

Abstract:
In 2022 the National Park Service (NPS) contracted Commonwealth to conduct an HRS of Mammoth Cave National Park. Funding for the project was provided by the NPS Cultural Resources, Partnerships, and Science Cultural Resources Fund Source. This HRS, the second conducted for the cultural resources in the Park, accounts for changes to the Park’s built environment since the original HRS, incorporates additional research, and reanalyzes and reevaluates resources documented in the first HRS. Of the 290 surveyed cultural resources, 57 have been previously listed in the NRHP either as individual listi
