In an all-digital, all-online setting, long-term secure record-keeping is a difficult task. The record-keeping problem comes up with increasing frequency, as we migrate to exclusively digital ways of transacting business. Accountability requires information about the content and the timing of business transactions. In the digital world, ideally, we should be able to tell with conviction when a ...

All the stops for this trip are within the Crown Point Reservation State Historic Site. From the west, take NY Route 22 north from Ticonderoga, continuing north through the Village of Crown Point.

This study focused on the structure and the platform of the road space of historic districts. We analyzed the road networks of 16 historic districts in Japan from the perspectives of circularity, accessibility and indirection based on graph theory. By calculating and comparing the indexes of each road network (NW1 and NW2) forms, we quantitatively describe the effects of the main prefectural ro...

This paper discusses a model for the virtual reconstruction of the historic garden of Villa lo Zerbino in Genoa. We describe the process that starts from a specific knowledge (based on documents, drawings and maps) and leads to a 3d model focusing on the vegetation elements. This representation allows addressing issues peculiar to the reconstruction of historic gardens, such as the analysis of ...

Population sizes and movement patterns of ungulate grazers and their predators have fluctuated dramatically over the past few centuries, largely owing to overharvesting, land-use change and historic management. We used δ(13)C and δ(15)N values measured from bone collagen of historic and recent gray wolves and their potential primary prey from Yellowstone National Park to gain insight into the t...

Research by economists suggests that recent Mexican migrants are better educated and have higher socioeconomic status (SES) than previous migrants. Because factors associated with higher SES and improved education can lead to positive secular changes in overall body form, secular changes in the craniofacial complex were analyzed within a recent migrant group from Mexico. The Mexican group repre...

Physical activity is connected to public health in many ways, and walking its most popular form. Modern planning models have been applied cities manage rapid urban expansions.

Nondestructive testing (NDT) of historic structures can be used for architectural archaeology, structural stability analysis, or materials characterization. Four types of physical probes are available: sound, penetrating radiation, visible light, and electromagnetism. Each of these can be utilized in several ways. Additional options involve hybrid techniques that combine probe methods. Widespre...
