Demonstration of using quieter pavement in Death Valley National Park
No full textVX82/JT311VX82/JT312Death Valley National Park provided an environment that allowed a demonstration ofquieter pavement use. Sound measurements near the tire-pavement interface, near theroad, and in areas of frequent human use were conducted and analyses performed in orderto determine the general sound environment in the park and the potential benefit ofusing quieter pavements. Tire-pavement noise data were collected using the on-boardsound intensity (OBSI) methodology, where sound levels for 15+ locations wereidentified. The OBSI levels for specific pavements in Death Valley were then used in aspecial research version of the FHWA Traffic Noise Model\uae (TNM\uae) in order to predict thepotential effect of using quieter pavements at the park
Motorcycle noise in a park environment
No full textVX82/JT311VX82/JT312The Blue Ridge Parkway National Park provided an environment where sound levelmeasurements could be made for numerous motorcycle pass-by events. Data were examinedfor five motorcycle categories: cruiser, sport, dual purpose, touring, andmoped/scooter, in terms of broadband sound levels and on a spectral basis (one-thirdoctave bands). Then the cruiser category was examined further since these motorcyclesgenerated the loudest and some of the quietest measured sound levels. Initialinvestigations were made for the following: sound levels for groups of motorcycles,sound levels at sensitive receiver locations, and predictions of sound levels usingfive motorcycle categories in a special research version of the FHWA Traffic NoiseModel\uae (TNM\uae)
Correspondence from C. P. Ambler, December 1901
No full textThis correspondence is concerned with the role of C. P. Ambler as a medical doctor. Ambler was long time secretary of the Appalachian National Park Association, an organization formed in 1899 for the purpose of promoting the idea of a national park in the eastern U.S. Chase P. Ambler (1865-1932) was a medical and founder of the Ambler Heights Sanitariu
Plus/minus p-adic L-functions for Hilbert modular forms
No full textR. Pollack constructed in Pollack (2003) [13] plus/minus p-adic L-functions for elliptic modular forms, which are p-adically bounded, when the Hecke eigenvalues at p are zero (the most super-singular case). The goal of this work is to generalize his construction to Hilbert modular forms. We find a suitable condition for Hilbert modular forms corresponding to the vanishing of p-th Hecke eigenvalue in elliptic modular form case, which guarantees the existence of plus/minus p-adic L-functions which are p-adically bounded. As an application, we construct cyclotomic plus/minus p-adic L-functions for modular elliptic curves over a totally real field F under the assumption that a(p)(E) = 0 for each prime p dividing p. We formulate a cyclotomic plus/minus Iwasawa main conjecture for such elliptic curves. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.X1111sciescopu
Requests for information on Appalachian National Park
No full textVarious organizations and individuals expressed support of an Appalachian National Park and a bill before Congress authorizing the purchase of four million acres for that purpose. A movement for a national park in the Appalachians was spearheaded by Appalachian National Park Association, formed in 1899. The association raised public awareness of the issue, but disbanded before the formation of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Crocker Range National Park, Sabah, as a refuge for Borneo’s montane herpetofauna
No full textCrocker Range National Park in Sabah (East Malaysia), northern Borneo, is an exceptional area for herpetological diversity. Inventories of the Park are incomplete, but show high diversity, as well as regional endemicity shared with the adjacent and more well-known Gunung Kinabalu National Park. The montane ecosystem of the Range offers refuge for a number of rare herpetofaunal taxa, including Stoliczkia borneensis, Rhabdophis murudensis, Oligodon everetti, Philautus bunitus, Ansonia anotis, Sphenomorphus aesculeticola, and undescribed species of squamates of the genera Sphenomorphus and Gongylosoma. The 59 species of amphibians and 45 species of reptiles now recorded from the Range represent 39 and 16.2 per cent of the total Bornean amphibian and reptile fauna, respectively. The high levels of deforestation of the surrounding regions of Borneo, particularly lowland rainforests, highten the importance of protection of primary forests of northern Borneo’s Crocker Range
The L-p-to-L-q boundedness of commutators with applications to the Jacobian operator
No full textSupplying the missing necessary conditions, we complete the characterisation of the L-p -> L-q boundedness of commutators [b, T] of pointwise multiplication and Calderon-Zygmund operators, for arbitrary pairs of 1 q, our results are new even for special classical operators with smooth kernels. As an application, we show that every f is an element of L-p(R-d) can be represented as a convergent series of normalised Jacobians J(u) = det del uof u is an element of (over dot(W))(1,dp)(R-d)(d). This extends, from p = 1 to p > 1, a result of Coifman, Lions, Meyer and Semmes about J:. (over dot(W))(1,d)(R-d)(d) -> H-1(R-d), and supports a conjecture of Iwaniec about the solvability of the equation Ju = f is an element of L-p(R-d). (C) 2021 The Author(s).

Report on the Proposed Mountain Culture Program for Great Smoky Mountains National Park
No full textShortly after the Great Smoky Mountains National Park was established in 1934, the National Park Service produced this report to evaluate and plan a program to preserve mountain culture. By this time, most of the 4,000 people who formerly lived within the park boundaries had moved out and what was left were abandoned homesteads and buildings. This 1938 report, by Wilburn, Grossman, and park naturalist Arthur Stupke, documented communities and proposed the preservation of structures within the park. Their plan for a Museum of Mountain Culture evolved into today’s Mountain Farm Museum.American History and Culture

Pioneer structures are to be found in other parts of
the country, but in most 1nstanoes they ar e represented by
isole.ted buildings, and the story of the way of 11fe of
their 1nhab1 tants can no longer be deoiphe·red . In the
r reat Smok1es, however, many c omplete groups of bu1ld1ne;s
still r emain, and some are quite as primitive in t heir sett
ings and in t he1r arch1 tecture as are t o be found anywhere.
The S\lrround1ng forests and mount a ins, which oade for t neir
isolation, imparted a distinctive cultural pattern upon
these people.
The coming of better roads did awa7 with the extreme
isolation o:f certain areas even before t hese lands became
a national park . Frame and boxed buildings replaced log
structures and the availability or C(ltrn1ercial products remov-
ed the need of home manufacture . P1nally 1 after the
r reat Smoky !ounta1ne National P~k became r Ealized, most
of the settlers moved tram the area. Aa a r esult many
buildings \ver e left a bandoned and as the years eo by t.hea.e
structures, if given no care or attention, become a ruins.

C. HISTORY
The land included in the Great Smoky Mountains National
Par k was taken one half from Tennessee and one half
from North Carolina. It constituted a part of the territory
granted by King Charles II , on June 30, 1663, to the
Lords Proprietors, t he bounds or which grant wore expanded
1n 1665 so as to extend from latitude 29 to 36 ~ north.
The name, Carolina, was applied to the entire grant . Fron
t his vast territory t hree of the original thirteen colon:.
0s., :~ ort h Carolina, South Carolina and Ceorg1a were developed.
Three other states, Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi,
later were also c arved from this domain.
The territory now comprising the State of Tennessee
belonged to Carolina under the charters of 1663 and 1665,
and fell to xTortb Carolina when the province was d1 vided.
In 1784 North Carolina ceded this territory to the national
government on condition that it be accepted in two
years. The inhabitants of the district, however, objected
to the cession, declared t heir independence of North
Carolina, and organized for themselves t he state of Franklin.
But t he new state was weakened by faet1ons , and after
a brief and precarious existence, it was forced into
submission to North Carolina, by which , in 1790, the territory
was again ceded to the n~tional government, and became
a part of "The Territory South of the Ohio River".
On June 1, 1?96, Tennessee w.a... s admi tted to the union as
the sixteenth state.
The aborigines found in pmsesslon of the Great
Smokies and adjacent regions at the time of the advent
of :Europeans . were the Cherokee Indiana. This great mountain
tribe 1s of Iroquolan stock, the relationship being
indicated by 11ngu1st1e eon~iderat1ons, cultural r emains,
and by traditions existing among the Cherokees, as well
as traditi ons .found among other tribes with whom they
csme ·1n contact.
The old home of the Cherokee was the country about
the head. waters of the Obio River and south of Lake Erie •
Quarrels and resulting wars with cognate neighboring
tribes. and territorial diaputes with the Delawares~ resulted
in utter defeat to the Cherokees who were torced
to move southward. At the time of the appearance of the
first Europeans the Cberokees had been sett led in their
3
new home some two or three centur,,s.
In the struggl e tor American Independence the Cherokee
aided with the Sritish, and they oont1nued their
hostile relationship with the Americana until about 1'794.
Following the Treaty of Hopewell of November 28, 1785,
they were lett in possess1on of all lands in the region
of the French Broad River and s outhwestward. The first
t reaty with the Cherokees that affected l•nds now i ncluded
in the park was the Treaty of Eolston negotiated July
2, 1791. It resulted in the cession of' a lare;e territ·ory
of land, 1nclud1n~ about one-half the north easte~n
portion of the park. The boundary was fixed at a point
on the Smok1es now known aa Neigs Pos t. In a tew years
followed the Treaty of Tellico, October 2, 1799, which
also resulted in the cession of lands, a small strip of
whioh is now included in the park on the aruth side. By
the terms of t he treaty negotiated February 27, 1819 , t he
Cherokee boundary was moved so1Jthward to the Little Ten.'1-
esaee River, thus oeding the remainder of the lands now
included in the park, and opening the way for white occupanoy.
Irnmediately following the treat7 of 1791 , land
speculators, most ot whom had been soldiers of the Revolutionary
Viar, began to take up the choice lands along
the Ocona Luttr tram the neighborhood of the present
Ravensford to 3mokemont. By about 1810 moat of these
lan.da had been oooup1ed and thr1 v1ng CO.IIID'1Wl1 ties developed.
These settlers consisted, mainly, ot tam111es who
had ~abed weetw~rd across the Blue Ridge, and were 1mmi
gr ants, or 1mme.d1ate descendants of i mmi grants, who
had treked down trom older settlements further north.
They oondituted the van.pard of thut great atrea of 1mmilrants
that was moving 1rrea1atabl7 southward and westwaN.
In 17'76, O~nera.l Ruther:ford and others had eo
decimated and d1eheaPtened the Cherokees along the Tuckaa~•
3ee and Little Tennessee Rivers that they offe~ed
little resistance to the advance of the whites . Other
reaaona tor the early settlement of this area, ••ide
frcm the dee1rable qualities of t he soil, was th.e fact
that an Indian trai l led this wa7 across the Smok1es,
and at the time of Hut hertord'e destruc tive e~ped1tlon
against the Cherokees , the tcwn of ~mnnun1 1n this v1-
c1n1ty had been destroyed and ita inhabitants run out.
Some of the ao.ldler who weft in this expedition were
the first pereons to take up landa here . ·
4
By about 1770 th·e atream of 1mm1grat1on began to
epl1 t and turn down the Holston and other r1eh valleys
ot Eaat Tennessee . In this re gion , however, the Cherokees
held b ck for a time the tide or 1I:r1i [~atlon . As
the Indian frontier was pushed further and further southwestward
and the choice lands along the larger streams
wer€ occupi ed, individual fam!liea t:1oved. u,p into the narrow
valleys and into the covee anti lnaccessible areas
of the mountains. By the time of the war of seo,ession
about all the are~s in the park that h ave ever been inhabited,
had been ooe11pied, and tha t state o£ stagnation or
~·,. .. r: ~ ~1 inertia occasio!led by isolation had set in.
-·::;r A large percentage of' the folk consti tutine these
mountain settlers were of mixed extraction, descended
two or tl1ree gent-rations distant .from ~lish, ScotchIrish~
I rish and Gei"man stoek who had prn1oualy settled
in Pennsylvania , western ~1ar7land. Virginia and alon~
the eastern sl('\pes of the Blue Ridge o£ North Carolina
and South Carolina. A munber also are known to have
been of pure Engl1ah-., 1r1sh and German stock, and to have
co~ more or leas d1reet into t he ~untain region.
Habits of thrift, hardihood, indep6ndence C4.nd ":make-
1t-or--do-w1thout-1t"' characterized the tonrter gro1Ap , whil e
the newcomers, by force of o1rcumatancem, adapted themselve.;
to their environment.
V.ost or these settlers c ame with a very scanty supply-
ot equipment. An ue, an au ~er, and a lonp rifle
with accoutrements, and possibly a horse, a cow, and a
dog, together with a few items of a dcmeet1c nature auch
as a pot, an oven, &nd .some clothes, constituted the
mean~ of ~rortd1ng a home &.nd livelihood. 'any of theee
folk were de cended trom or.ttamen eueh a.o k_et.al worke.ra
and wood workers; the women were reaoureef\11; and all together,
by force or environment, were able to supply the
necess ities of lite rram the eru:de n&at.er1ala at hand.
Under such eircumatanoes or environment and personal
resource.tnlness t here wae developed, and continued to
eom.par-at1vely recent t1mee, a culture pattern of unique
characte 1at1cs and historical ~portance •

D. SUGGESTED PROGRAM
I. The Central Museum Area
a) Lonation, Dsscr1ption and fiistory ot Area
1. - Aim and Purpose. This development 1s designed
primarily to tell the story of the mountain culture
~r the Great Smoky ~ ounta1na National Park J~e a . It
should consist of a main nr~senm bt..t1ld1ng , a mnal l mountain
cabin unit, and the installation of one or more typical
mill sites on a small stream nearby.
2. - L cation. T akln~ into consideration all
the dete~ning factor s, the area generally known as the
Mingus Creek area 1a believed to be the most eultnbl~
location for this important development. It is situated
beside the main h1ghwa7 leading a.cross the ~oldes which
highway will, nnd,oubt&dly, carry the greatest stream of
traff1c1 both entering and leaving the park on the south.
It is 2 ~ miles diatant tram the Smokemont tourist campj
a pproximately 10 miles distant from Newfound Cap, &L ... 23
1!11les tram the Fighting Creek Administration Area. The
park boundary and the Cherokee Indian School are 2l to 3
miles toward the south .
3. - Desor1tt1on. The physical features at this
area aeem to be abou iii that could be desired. A broad,
tlat valley 1th relatively low mountain ridges toward
the east and southeast edm1te an early morning sunn7 exposure.
Toward the west. more sheltering r1dgea, particularly
i n the ew•mter when the sun move a · ~theet north,
will afford a long , sh dy period in the late;~rternoon.
The convergence here ot three ta1rly broad and open stream
Talle7a; Mingus Creek trcm the west, Ccona rutty from the
north, RaTen Fork and Straight Fork tram the northeast.
together with t he wide, open main valle7 to ard the south,
insures. perfect air drainage.
The exact location tor the main building haa not
been selected, but a e~tuat1on upon a natural terrace which
1a approx1matel7 30 feet elevation above the water level
or the Ocona Lutt7 aDd .lngua creek and 18 feet above the
road level seems to bG· almoet 14eal. Th1d apot, which 1s
about 350 .teet trm the hlgbway a·nd an equal distance rrom
Kingua Creek, 1e just high enough to coom .aod a tiDe Yiew
o~ the beaut11'ul level bot '" 011! 1•""• aoroas the Ocona Luft7,
ae well as or the mountain ridges be7ond to the eaat
6
and southenst. The level are between this t e r race , the
ll1 ~)lway, an<! Mingus Creek may e a s i l y be developed to allow
circulation of tratt1c and parkine tac111t1es .
4. - Ii1stor1oa l Cons iderations. Ot e ven gr eater
importance in ae!eotlng t his area for aeYelo~ ent into an
historical museum center, a.l'e i ts historical aasoo1at 1ons .
Lon J! befo-re the com1n ~ of t he hi tea into this are a , an
lnd1an trail followed alon~ t he Ooona Lurty, across t he
Smokies, ond along t he Litt le Pi geon River. This was , no
d~ubt, an important line of oor.nnun1cat1on between the
Overhill tribes in Eaat Tennessee and the mountain tribes
along the Tuckaaeegee and its branches. Near this point
the Bal. s am ;J~ountain trail branched ott, leading northeastward
ecroes the Bala ~s and the Smokies, and into the
Overbill settlements fUrther e astward.
Abou t 2t· t:1lles south of l!1 ngus creek, just ott t he
park lands, is the site of an old Ind i an town, Nunnunyi;
and t here 1s evidence of scatt ering sett lements all along
t he OeonR Lufty. Considerable cultural remains have been
found in the 1ngus Creek area . A large earth mound m r xs
the site uf Nununy1 ( ?late la.). These sett lements vere
all destroyed t&~~d the 1nhab1 t ants run ou t by t he Rat he r ford
expedition~ in 1776. They ere never rebuilt.
Four teen ~ars after t he destruction or these sett
l~ments, one Dr . Joseph Dobson, a sehool master from old
Burke CotJnty, e ast or the 3lue Ridge, entered a tract of
land adjacent to the 1·1ngu.s Creek area . Dobson was a soldier
1n the Rutherford expedition. Title to ~s l and ._a
void because the entry was made eleven months prior to the
eigning of the treaty of July 2, 1791, by m 1 ~~ treat,theae
lands were opened tor white occupancy. On May 9,
1795, Felix ~;alker obtained a grant tor 4 square miles of
land which included the K1ngua creek area. ae well aa the
l ande described 1n the Dobson entry. Walker had been a
student 1Jnder Dr. Dobson, and was a eon ot John Wal ker
who, also, had been a eold1er 1n the Ruthertord expedition.
A number of the earl1eat •ettlere in this area derived
t1 t l e to their lande t~ ,.ough the Walker grant . And, while
the public records do not reYeal a conve7~oe tr<ZJ "1alker
to John Jacob . 1ngue~, both tamily reoords and tradi t1on
point to thls Oei'Dlan lr,ni ~re.nt as bo1 the t1rst penaa ..
nent settler in the area. whGse name beoame tixed to the
stream flowing 1nto the Ocona Luft7 at t his poin t . The
a1te of h1s cabin 1e Tery well authenticated. But , be
that as it may, it 1s quite evident that prior to the
rear 1800, a number of r 111es had beoame well established
1n this area, and 1n the next fe years n,1merous
7
settlements w~ re ~ade alone the Ccona Lurty ~~d Raven
Fork, influenced, no doubt , by the old trails and abandoned
Indian clearings. ( I+lootnote !io . 1 - See Conner

map and paper by B. C. ~ilburn h ich were d i stribu t ed
as follo s : The Director, Dr . Dry~~t, Region One, and
SupAri~tendont Eakin).
Probably as early as the 1830's, t he old trail across
the Smokies began to be used as a stock driver's
trail . mxmerous droves of ho0 s, eattle, horees and mules ,
on their way to the rich c otton growing sections of South
Carolina, ere driven this way. This ousiness cont i nued
until the ~ar of Secession, and was renewed to a lesser
de ee afterwards . Sett lers alon0 this road pr ospered
by reason of ready sale for their eorn and other products.
(Footnote Jo. 2 - For parallel case see Art hur, '•History
of Vlestern Nol-th Carolina", pp . 285-287; also see map referred
to in Footnote No . 1).
5. - The M1n~s 111. The corn grinding un1 t
of this old ~Il haa ~rea3y been restored to operating
basis and it 18 being run as a customs proposition. It
lends ~reatly to the looal color and historical significance
or this area, and 1 t is known that an old overshot
type mill was in operation here tor many years prior
t c the building or the present Mingus Mill 1n about 18R6.
Sash sawn ttMber and high class hand carpentry char acterize
this mill, both the building and the installed eppl1-
anoes. ( Footnote no. 3 - See Conner Manuscript, Extract

1. - Portner SU~eet1on~. In the report of 'f.'r.
Alden B. Stevens Wb!cn suSD!tted July 31, 19~5, it was
f!Uggested that apac tor geolo~ be provided here. l'ore
recent studies have led to tbe conclua1on that this subjeot
would best be treated elseWhere. Mr. SteYena also
suggested that thf subjects archaeology and ethnology be
aasigned apace 1n the awue bUilding aDd on the s ame floor
with mountain aalture. More recent study and consideration
have raie d a question .. to the dea1rab111ty ot

Whichever way this ~eat1 on may be decided, it seems that
in so f a r as the historical period of the Cherokee Indian
1s concerned pertinent exhibits would not be out of place
here. Two reasons tor this are as follows; t1rat is the
fact of the close and 1nt~n e relationDh!p that has existed
bet een the Indians and Whites in th1s area fer a
great many years. In the early days the Indians were despoiled

Composition of the essential oil of Teucrium fruticans L. from the Maremma Regional Park (Tuscany, Italy)
No full textThe composition of the essential oil of a population of Teucrium fruticans L. from the Maremma Regional Park, Italy, has been studied for the first time. The oil was obtained from both flowering and fruiting tops. The former contained almost equal amounts of mono- and sesquiterpenes (53% and 45%, respectively), while the latter was constituted mainly by sesquiterpenes (70%). The main components during the flowering phase were ß-pinene (21%), germacrene D (18%), myrcene (13%), and ∫-caryophyllene (12%), and during the fruiting phase germacrene D (24%), ß-caryophyllene (22%), ß-pinene (7%) and ß-selinene (7%
