Earth System History (ESH) in the Urban Landscape-Implementing Geosystem Resource Management (GRM) in Regions of Rapid Urban Growth

陈-9817777。某些地质记录提供了地球系统过程及其历史的自然档案(ESH)。储存这些记录的地区尤其受到城市快速扩张的影响。由于教育、科学和实际原因，许多受城市退化影响的地区可能具有巨大的社会价值。该研究项目将制定、模拟和实施管理地球系统历史档案与城市景观之间的互动的战略。归根结底，这项工作将促进地球系统资源管理伦理的发展，使之与现有的文化资源管理伦理相平行，并促进对环境卫生部门重要档案的保护。项目活动将使用地理信息系统数据库识别和描述犹他州瓦萨奇前线的ESH档案。关于城市发展动态的空间信息将与环境安全部门数据库合并，以评价空间相互作用、档案和发展。将为瓦萨奇前线开发模型，那里目前的城市增长是广泛的。这一地区的自然档案很可能会受到这一发展的强烈影响，该地区为调查城市对这些重要资源的影响提供了一个理想的模式系统。

Chan - 9817777. Certain geologic records provide natural archives of earth system processes and their history (ESH). Regions where these records have been deposited have been particularly effected by rapidly expanding urban growth. Many of the regions subject to urban degradation are likely to be of great societal value for educational, scientific, and practical reasons. The research project would develop, model, and implement strategies for managing interactions between archives of earth-system history and the urban landscape. Ultimately this work would facilitate the development of a geosystem resources management ethic that would parallel existing cultural resources management ethic and foster the protection of important ESH archives. Project activities will identify and described ESH archives in the Wasatch Front in Utah using a GIS database. Spatial information on the dynamics of urban development will be merged with the ESH database to evaluate spatial interactions archives and development. Models will be developed for the Wasatch Front where current urban growth is extensive. Natural archives in this area are likely to be strongly effected by this development and the region provides a ideal model system to investigate urban effects on these important resources.
