- Description:
- Autonomous Crack Monitoring (ACM) and Autonomous Crack Propagation Sensing (ACPS) are two types of structural health monitoring in which characteristics of cracks are recorded over long periods of time. ACM seeks to correlate changes in widths of cosmetic cracks in structures to nearby blasting or construction vibration activity for the...

- Description:
- This manual describes use of a new hybrid autonomous crack and structural response monitoring (ACSM) system. It is designed as a low cost alternative to the research grade version employing SOMAT’s eDAQ data recording system. The concept is to combine a new field portable, 24 bit, 12 channel seismograph with...

If the purchased seed is not of the local ecotype, land managers run the risk of poor establishment in the short-term and outcrossing between local and non-local ecotypes, genetic swamping, and the loss of local genetic diversity...
