The David W. Fentress Family Letters, 1856-1969
No full textTranscript of a letter by an unidentified author to David Fentress regarding sharing federal newspapers and the banning of federal newspapers in some areas. The author passes on the news of the war including the destruction of the Federal merchantmen by the Confederate fleet. He passes along world news: Russia preparing to go to War with Europe and how that could negatively affect the Confederacy. There is also speculation on the future of the war

David Zimmer Christmas letter
No full textThis Christmas letter written November 30, 1999, by David Zimmer is titled "Season's Greetings from the last of the Red-Hot-Santas!" It features an illustration of Santa Claus with a guitar, and a summary of Zimmer's year.
David Zimmer (1929-2005) was born in Harrisburg, Ohio. He enlisted in the U.S. Army and served for two years during the Korean War at the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, where he performed in drag for wounded soldiers. After the war, he returned to Ohio. Zimmer performed as Dolly Divine, a name inspired by the song "Hello Dolly." In 1964, he established the Berwick Ball with Orn Huntington, another important early gay activist in Central Ohio. The Ball began as a formal Halloween costume ball that provided a safe space to gather and enjoy drag shows for the gay community each year; over the years, it grew into an annual Halloween tradition and an important fundraiser for the AIDS movement and other charities. During the 1970s, Zimmer was also known for hosting lavish parties at his Harrisburg home. In 1989, he moved to the German Village area of Columbus where he remained active in the community. During the 1990s, Zimmer continued to perform in and out of drag and commissioned costume designer Dick Frank to make elaborate outfits. Zimmer worked for Huntington National Bank for 39 years and was a member of the Harrisburg United Methodist Church, Veterans of Foreign Wars and the German Village Society

Advanced-Canopy-Atmosphere-Soil Algorithm (ACASA model) for estimating mass and energy fluxes
No full textThere is a recognized need to improve land surface models that simulate mass and energy fluxes
between terrestrial ecosystems and atmosphere. In particular, long-term land planning strategies at local
and regional scales require better understanding of agricultural ecosystem capacity to exchange CO2and water. One of the more elaborate models for flux modelling is the Advanced Canopy-Atmosphere-Soil
Algorithm (ACASA) model (Pyles et al., 2000), which provides micro-scale and regional-scale
fluxes. The ACASA model allows for characterization of energy and carbon fluxes. It is a higher-order
closure model used to estimate fluxes and profiles of heat, water vapor, carbon and momentum within
and above canopy using third-order closure equations. It also estimates turbulent profiles of velocity,
temperature, humidity within and above canopy. The ACASA model estimates CO2fluxes using a
combination of Ball-Berry and Farquhar equations. In addition, the effects of water stress on stomata,
transpiration and CO2assimilation are considered. The model was mainly used over dense canopies
(Pyles et al. 2000, 2003) in the past, so the aim of this work was to test the ACASA model over a
sparse canopy for estimating mass and energy fluxes, comparing model output with field measurements
taken over a vineyard located in Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy
