This thesis investigated general and relative effects of snowfall on freeway crashes during winter periods in the State of Michigan. Two principal Negative Binomial regression models were established to assess these effects. Explanatory variables for Model 1 included AADT, segment length, horizontal curvature, and snowfall. Explanatory variables for Model 2 included all three initial variables from Model 1 and three categorical snowfall intervals based on its quartile distribution. Crash…

1. Discuss three types of barriers to vertebrate distribution and give an example of each. (1) Physicalbarriers: This one of the barriers that the vertebrates usually encounter during their life. Land is one of the main factors that contributes to physical barrier since some of the species are constrained in specified geographic factor and also some physical conditions. Water is also another constrain i.e. for other species get constrained. The type of topography and also the soil type is of…

Hi Professor Bradley, I invite you to take a look at the resources I have posted on the discussion page. There's certainly a great deal that I would like to say, but as you requested in our conversation last week I will do my best not to dominate the conversation. I want to introduce the concept of "paradigms" and explore how ideological/rhetorical frames can influence our attitudes perceptions and behaviors. I will draw the tri-polar "spectrum of environmental ideologies;" Ecocentrism -----…

For it affected multiple Dynasties, and Empires in the past, with Political Crises, Religious Conflicts, Societal Mayhem, and Violence, it has also affected today’s Society, Although, in comparison, like today, where it is a bit more advanced, climate change would still have affects us, yes, but not as drastically like it did around…

was something in the air, but Carl knew this was an important day. He couldn't place his finger on it, but something was definitely up. It was like one of those days where you knew something important was going to happen. Good or bad, shit would be going down.

The refreshing breeze carried the scent of leaves and grass through his nostrils, making him inhale deeply. Carl savored anything relaxing,…

On a cool autumn night in my hometown of Salem, Massachusetts, the accusation of witchcraft runs rampant through the residents. Little hints of quirky practices may summon anyone to the courts of Salem. On that night, I was bored at home so I went to gather with my friends. There were four of us. We decided to play in the woods. After about an hour of playing around it was starting to get cold, so we started a small fire to keep warm. A huge gust of wind caught the fire and it got out of…

There was a knock on the door. Again. It was the fifth time that week that one of those people who claimed they wanted to “help them recover” had knocked on the Voltas’ door. They were utterly relentless. “We don’t want your charity,” Hope called out for the fifth time that week, finding herself annoyed once more. She didn’t even bother with checking who it was. It was always either one of those charity people or the Tartines (although they usually said who they were and, depending on who it…
