Description
Aeroelasticity plays an important role in the design and development of highly flexible flight vehicles and blended wing body configurations. The operating margins on these flight systems are limited by non-linear unsteady phenomena such as stall, flutter, gusts, limit cycle oscillations, vortex roll-up which exhibit strong coupling between the aero-loads and structural deformations. The use of high-fidelity time domain methods such as CFD/FEM during the design phase has been limited by the cost of computing the unsteady physics. In this proposal researchers from CRAFT Tech and Georgia Tech offer a collaborative inter-disciplinary design optimization approach to aeroelasticity problems with high fidelity aerodynamics analysis and structural dynamics. This approach is primarily feasible because of the development of a novel unsteady analysis procedure that reconstructs the unsteady dynamics with high accuracy and nominal cost. The reconstruction procedure combines CFD and FEM with a modified Proper Orthogonal Decomposition method and an Artificial Neural Network to simulate the unsteady aeroelastic features associated with different shape designs with good reliability. Furthermore, the process of reconstructing the unsteady solution permits the incorporation of control strategies and time variant system responses making it appealing for the aeroservoelasticity class of problems.

Summary
Description
The NASA/GEWEX Surface Radiation Budget (SRB) Release-3.0 data sets contains global 3-hourly, daily, monthly/3-hourly, and monthly averages of surface and top-of atmosphere (TOA) longwave and shortwave radiative parameters on a 1?x1? grid. Model inputs of cloud amounts and other atmospheric state parameters are also available in some of the data sets. Primary inputs to the models include: visible and infrared radiances from International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) pixel-level (DX) data, cloud and surface properties derived from those data, temperature and moisture profiles from GEOS-4 reanalysis product obtained from the NASA Global Modeling and Assimilation Office (GMAO), and column ozone amounts constituted from Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS), TIROS Operational Vertical Sounder (TOVS) archives, and Stratospheric Monitoring-group's Ozone Blended Analysis (SMOBA), an assimilation product from NOAA's Climate Prediction Center. SRB products are reformatted for the use of renewable energy and agricultural communities and made available through the Surface meteorology and Solar Energy (SSE) website. SRB products now overlap a portion of surface and TOA flux data sets that are available from Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) project. These CERES data products and those from the CERES Fast Longwave and SHortwave Radiative Fluxes (FLASHFlux) project extend past the SRB time frame. The latter project provides radiative fluxes on a near real-time basis. The CERES and CERES/FLASHFlux data sets also make use of global observations from Moderate-resolution Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MODIS) instruments. Release-3.0 products differ substantially from earlier SRB Releases (2.0 and 2.5) arising from numerous improvements of the algorithms and input data sets. Temporal coverage of Release-3.0 is extended to December 2007; Release-2.5 ended in June 2005. A modified version of the GEWEX Longwave data set, denoted as version 3.1, corrects for a numerical instability issue that was found to affect a small number of 3 hourly grid box TOA outgoing and surface downward fluxes in the release 3.0 longwave products .On-line documentation provides information on all changes applicable to Release-3.0. Users are encouraged to consult on-line documentation prior to using these data sets. In addition to the big-endian binary formatted files of previous releases, Release-3.0 SW/3.1 LW are now available in netCDF format.

State program integrity reviews play a critical role in how CMS provides effective support and assistance to states in their efforts to combat provider fraud and abuse. The reviews are comprehensive, including examinations of provider enrollment, provider disclosures, program integrity, managed care and the states relationships with the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU). The Program Integrity Review Annual Summary reports each include a compendium of data collected from comprehensive integrity reviews for which final reports have been issued. Each Program Integrity Review Annual Summary reports title identifies the federal fiscal year reviews included in the report. The report includes information about effective practices, areas of vulnerability and areas of non-compliance. The Medicaid Integrity Group will publish this report annually in its efforts to provide effective support and assistance to the states.

Changes in avian disease and mosquito vector prevalence; A 15-year perceptive and assessment of future risk: Hakalau National Wildlife Refuge
Published By US Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of the Interior
Issued about 9 years ago
Summary
Description
Mosquitoborne avian disease, avian malaria and avian pox, is a major limiting factor for Hawaiian forest birds. While native bird communities at Hakalau Forest NWR remain intact and species populations are stable or increasing, these birds are still vulnerable to the impact of avian disease. Continued increases in mean air temperature at higher elevations and large scale environmental change caused by feral pigs within the unmanaged units of the refuge may have resulted in increased disease transmission at Hakalau NWR. To determine if disease transmission rates have changed in 15 years we performed a oneyear survey that builds upon earlier research, updates the prevalence and distribution of avian disease and vector mosquitoes and helps assess future avian disease risk at Hakalau Forest NWR. The main objective of the study is to compare current avian malaria prevalence and vector mosquito occurrence with data collected in 19981999 across a broad landscape of Hakalau Forest NWR. Specifically, we collected blood samples from birds at the Pua Akala, Nauhi and Maulua Tracts at 1,800 m asl and Pua Akala and Maulua Tracts at 1,300 m asl and performed standard diagnostics to determine infection prevalence with avian malaria, avian pox and knemidokoptic mange. Also, we surveyed pig sign and larval mosquito habitat along belt transects and larval mosquito habitat along the Awehi and Waikaumalo stream drainages.

Fish assemblages in central and southern California using fish catch and effort data from the Recreational Fisheries Information Network

Summary
Description
This dataset was provided by the Recreational Fisheries Information Network (RecFIN), and contained GPS coordinates for 680 CPFV trips during 1999 and 2001 at depths ranging from 0 - 2200 m. Fishers targeted specific species during each trip, and visited between 1 and 22 locations. Each trip/location combination was considered a unique site and was used as a sample unit in analyses. RecFIN provided information on four hook and line fishing methods: free drift, stationary drift, anchor, and troll. The trolling trips were removed before analysis because they targeted specific pelagic species and therefore provide limited information about diversity. In addition, fish that were not present in at least 5% of the trawls were also removed. The final data set analyzed contained 18 fish species captured by hook and line at 2967 trip/location combinations. Site groups were calculated using the Bray-Curtis dissimilarity coefficient with average means clustering (Romesburg, 1991).

The Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) Database depicts flood risk information and supporting data used to develop the risk data. The primary risk classifications used are the 1-percent-annual-chance flood event, the 0.2-percent-annual- chance flood event, and areas of minimal flood risk. The DFIRM Database is derived from Flood Insurance Studies (FISs), previously published Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), flood hazard analyses performed in support of the FISs and FIRMs, and new mapping data, where available. The FISs and FIRMs are published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). In addition to the preceding, required text, the Abstract should also describe the projection and coordinate system as well as a general statement about horizontal accuracy.
