Background on Resilient Neighborhoods • Description of overall Resilient Neighborhoods initiative • Relation to the City’s overall response to Sandy and resiliency planning • Relation to other DCP work, such as Citywide Text Amendment • Relation to other state and federal initiatives • Why this study area was chosen Following Superstorm Sandy in October 2012, New York City developed a detailed action plan for recovery from the storm and the long-term resiliency of the…

be used alone or in combination with other treatments. They are used for the purpose of preventing an increase in lymphedema and maintaining the reduction of lymphedema after treatment. If there was evidence of failure after an adequate trial of elevation and use of compression garments, a trial of management with a compression pump could be…

My creative project focused on understanding the role of physics in the sports of halfpipe snowboarding. My overall research question focused on how physics influence this sport. In my project, I explored the fundamental concepts of physics which influence this sport, and how amateurs can benefit by improving their performance through the understanding of these basics ideas. The internet revolution has made educational resources accessible, however most of these resources are filled with…

water area of 0.01 sq. miles. Payson is part of Gila County and operates on Mountain Time zone (GMT-7), the elevation is 4,921 feet. The two main highways that cross into Payson is the (260) and the (87). The (87) runs north and south and at the upmost northern point the (87) intersects and turns into the (260) that continues north and also runs east continuing through Star Valley. At an elevation…

RICE for Routine Care of Injuries The routine care of many injuries includes rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE). The RICE strategy is often recommended for injuries to soft tissues, such as a muscle strain, ligament injuries, bruises, and overuse injuries. It can also be used for some bony injuries. Using the RICE strategy can help relieve pain, reduce swelling, and enable your body to heal. Rest Rest is required to allow your body to heal. This usually involves reducing your…

revolves around bamboo. Now that climate change is ruining bamboo forests the panda is left with little to no food. This forces them to migrate from their low elevation habitats, to higher elevations like mountains. Although this may provide more bamboo it isolates the already endangered, Giant Panda populations from each other. The higher elevations also bring a more rough terrain, which then causes the panda to spend far more energy searching for food. Considering bamboo has almost no…

RICE Therapy  What is RICE Therapy? R.I.C.E is an abbreviation for Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation. RICE is considered as the first treatment for some muscle strains, ligament sprains, or different injuries, and wounds. RICE is utilized promptly after an injury come about and for the initial 24 to 48 hours after the damage. Rest, ice, compression and elevation can help in decreasing the inflammation and pain. It ensures the quick healing process to happen.  Common uses of RICE…

will compare each location’s water usage and characteristics about their water tables. Each location’s geographic position, topography, elevation, climate, wind patterns, and moisture levels are key factors for the supply and demand of their respective water tables. Berkeley, California is located on the east banks of San Francisco Bay. It lies at an elevation of 318 feet and is positioned at 37°52’N and 122°16’W. The city’s eastern border follows the ridge line of the Berkeley Hills. The…

However, the rates of mechanical weathering will be greater on the Siberian steppes due to freezing and thawing ice. my believed reasoning are these. Elevation is also a huge factor in weathering. The higher the elevation, you're going to get more rain, water, ice, and wind. And all of those can lead to mechanical weathering, so the higher the elevation, the faster the weathering will happen. So just to review our objectives, we talked about how the composition of rock can affect the rate of…

approachable by the public, there is actually couple stones layered on top of each other to form the base of this structure, hence the elevation. Consequently, it suggests that the purpose of this structure may very much be religious, as elevated architecture usually embodies people’s desire to be uplifted to be closer to the heavens and the gods. On top of that, the elevation creates a physical boundary between the monument’s ground and the ground level of the site, segregating the ordinary…
