Climate change in New Mexico

Köppen climate types in New Mexico.

EPA map of changing snowpack levels in Colorado and New Mexico.

Climate change in New Mexico encompasses the effects of climate change, attributed to man-made increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide, in the U.S. state of New Mexico.

According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, "New Mexico's climate is changing. Most of the state has warmed at least one degree (F) in the last century. Throughout the southwestern United States, heat waves are becoming more common, and snow is melting earlier in spring. In the coming decades, our changing climate is likely to decrease the flow of water in the Colorado, Rio Grande, and other rivers; threaten the health of livestock; increase the frequency and intensity of wildfires; and convert some rangelands to desert".

Snowpack

Solar panel research, Sandia National Laboratories, 2021

"As the climate warms, less precipitation falls as snow, and more snow melts during the winter. That decreases snowpack—the amount of snow that accumulates over the winter. Since the 1950s, the snowpack has been decreasing in New Mexico, as well as in Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming, which matters because the headwaters of the Rio Grande, San Juan, Colorado, and Navajo rivers are in those states.

Diminishing snowpack in northern New Mexico will shorten the season for skiing and other forms of winter tourism and recreation. The tree line may shift, as subalpine fir and other high-altitude trees become able to grow at higher elevations. A higher tree line would decrease the extent of alpine tundra ecosystems, which could threaten some species".

Water availability

"The changing climate is likely to increase the need for water but reduce the supply. Warmer temperatures increase the rate at which water evaporates (or transpires) into the air from soils, plants, and surface waters. Irrigated farmland would thus need more water. But less water is likely to be available, because precipitation is unlikely to increase enough to make up for the additional water lost to evaporation. Annual rainfall is more likely to decrease than increase. So soils are likely to be drier, and periods without rain are likely to become longer, making droughts more severe. The decline in snowpack could further limit the supply of water for some purposes.

Mountain snowpacks are natural reservoirs. They collect the snow that falls during winter and release water when the snow melts during spring and summer. Over the past 50 years, snowpack has been melting earlier in the year. Dams capture most meltwater and retain it for use later in the year. But upstream of these reservoirs, less water is available during droughts for ecosystems, fish, water-based recreation, and landowners who draw water directly from a flowing river".

Due to the increase in climate change New Mexicos water resources have plummeted.Center for Biological Diversity named New Mexico's Gila River as the nation's most endangered river, due to climate change.

Agriculture

"Increasing droughts and higher temperatures are likely to interfere with New Mexico’s farms and cattle ranches. Hot weather can threaten cows’ health and cause them to eat less, grow more slowly, and produce less milk. Livestock operations could also be impaired by fire and changes in the landscape from grassland to woody shrubs more typical of a desert.

Reduced water availability would create challenges for ranchers, as well as farmers who irrigate fruits, vegetables, pecans, and other nut trees".

Wildfires and changing landscapes

Smoke pollution from wildfires, Albuquerque, 2011

"Higher temperatures and drought are likely to increase the severity, frequency, and extent of wildfires, which could harm property, livelihoods, and human health. On average, more than 2 percent of the land in New Mexico has burned per decade since 1984. Wildfire smoke can reduce air quality and increase medical visits for chest pains, respiratory problems, and heart problems".

"The combination of more fires and drier conditions may expand deserts and otherwise change parts of New Mexico’s landscape. Many plants and animals living in arid lands are already near the limits of what they can tolerate. A warmer and a drier climate would generally extend the Chihuahuan desert to higher elevations and expand its geographic range. In some cases, native vegetation may persist and delay or prevent expansion of the desert. In other cases, fires or livestock grazing may accelerate the conversion of grassland to desert in response to the changing climate. For similar reasons, some forests may change to desert or grassland".

Pests

Solar farm, Gallup

"Warmer, drier conditions make forests more susceptible to pests. Drought reduces the ability of trees to mount a defense against attacks from pests such as bark beetles, which have infested 200,000 acres in New Mexico. Temperature controls the life cycle and winter mortality rates of many pests. With higher winter temperatures, some pests can persist year-round, and new pests and diseases may become established".

Extreme heat

"Hot days can be unhealthy—even dangerous. Certain people are especially vulnerable, including children, the elderly, the sick, and the poor. High air temperatures can cause heat stroke and dehydration, and affect people’s cardiovascular, respiratory, and nervous systems. Higher temperatures are amplified in urban settings where paved and other surfaces tend to store heat. Warmer air can also increase the formation of ground-level ozone, a key component of smog. Construction crews may have to increasingly operate on altered time schedules to avoid the heat of the day".

Tribal communities


Climate change in New Mexico

Tribal communities

"Climate change threatens natural resources and public health of tribal communities. Rising temperatures and increasing drought are likely to decrease the availability of certain fish, game, and wild plants on which the Navajo and other tribes have relied for generations. Water may be less available for domestic consumption, especially for those who are not served by either municipal systems or reliable wells, which includes about 30 percent of the people on the Navajo Nation, who must haul water to meet daily needs. Recurring drought and rising temperatures may also degrade the land itself. On the Arizona portion of the Navajo Nation, for example, the Great Falls Dune Field has advanced almost a mile in the last 60 years, threatening roads, homes, and grazing areas. Extreme heat may also create health problems for those without electricity, including about 40 percent of the people on the Navajo reservation.

Governmental response

In January 2019, Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham signed an executive order on addressing climate change and energy waste prevention.United States Climate Alliance with a goal of lowering greenhouse gas emissions by 45% from 2005 levels by 2030. As well as supporting the objective of the Paris Agreement at state level.New Mexico Climate Strategy.

Disappearance of Jason Shannon

Darren Jason Shannon (born 1972) was an 11-month-old Australian baby who disappeared on 9 June 1973.

He was abducted by his father Barry Shannon who was then killed in a fatal traffic accident approximately two hours later.

Although it's now presumed Jason Shannon died, possibly murdered, police have considered the possibility that Barry Shannon may have given his son to a friend or family member to secretly raise before ending his own life.

A reward of up to $1 million is offered to anyone who provides information relating to Jason Shannon's suspected murder, or the reveals the whereabouts of his remains.

Disappearance

Jason Shannon was abducted by his 26-year-old father Barry Shannon who had taken him at approximately 7:15pm on 9 June 1973 during an access visit at the home of the baby's maternal grandparents in the Adelaide suburb of Elizabeth West.

Jason Shannon's parents Barry and Michelle Shannon had recently agreed to a temporary separation.

Upon seeing Barry Shannon leaving the property with baby Jason, the baby's maternal grandfather Alfred Hinde attempted to stop him.

Two hours later, Barry Shannon was killed in a head-on collision with another vehicle on Main North Road near Roseworthy at approximately 9:15pm.Royal Adelaide Hospital.

Despite an extensive search of the crash site, baby Jason Shannon was not found at the scene and his whereabouts were unable to be determined.

Several days after Shannon disappeared, police said that they still hoped to find him alive.

Police called off the search for Jason Shannon on 15 June, but said detectives were following several leads.

Michelle Shannon and her parents left Adelaide in 1974, six months after losing Jason and returned to their native United Kingdom.

In November 2015, Swift returned to the crash site where her former husband was killed to lay flowers.

Investigation

Police concentrated on two possible theories as to what happened to Jason Shannon.

The first theory is that Barry Shannon murdered his son and disposed of the body before his fatal car crash, which he deliberately caused to end his own life.

In 2016, the case was being investigated by the South Australia Police Major Crime Investigation Section, and formed part of a long-term cold case campaign called Operation Persist.


Disappearance of Jason Shannon

Discussing the case in 2016, Detective Sergeant Cameron Georg said police seriously considered the theory of Barry Shannon possibly giving his son to another person to raise in secret prior to the crash.

Detectives working on the case investigated whether Barry Shannon's now-deceased brother and parents left their estates to anyone who matched Jason Shannon's age upon each of their deaths, but this line of enquiry didn't provide any leads.

It was also revealed in 2016 that detectives were looking into information about Barry Shannon having formed a close bond with a female patient at the Fullarton Private Hospital where he had been treated for a mental illness.

Reward

Shannon is listed on the Crime Stoppers South Australia website as "missing, presumed murdered".

A reward of up to $1 million is being offered to anyone who provides information which leads to the conviction of those responsible for Shannon's suspected death or provides information relating to the whereabout of his remains.

Annmary Brown Memorial is an art museum, library and mausoleum at Brown University.Providence, Rhode Island. It is one of six libraries comprising the University Library system. Before merging with the university in 1948, the museum was founded as an independent collection by General Rush Hawkins and his wife, Annmary Brown (1837-1903). The Hawkinses are interred in a crypt at the building. The building was constructed in 1903 by architect Norman Isham. Today, the museum features a wide array of art from around the world.

The building housed a well known collection of 450 incunabula for many years. In 1990, the collection was moved to the John Hay Library.

Visiting

The museum is normally open on Monday through Friday from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. during the academic year, Labor Day through Memorial Day.

German Imperial Admiralty

Flag Chef der Admiralität

Prussian warship, circa 1867

The German Imperial Admiralty (German: Kaiserliche Admiralität) was an imperial naval authority in the German Empire. By order of Kaiser Wilhelm I the Northern German Federal Navy Department of the North German Confederation (1866–71), which had been formed from the Prussian Navy Department (Marineministerium), became on 1 January 1872 the German Imperial Admiralty (Kaiserliche Admiralität). The head of the Admiralty (Chef der Admiralität) administered the Imperial Navy under the authority of the imperial chancellor and the supreme command of the Emperor (Kaiserliche Kommandogewalt). It lasted until 1889, undergoing several reorganizations, but proved an impractical arrangement given the constant growth and the expansion of the Imperial Navy. Finally it was abolished in April 1889 and its duties divided among three new entities: German Imperial Naval High Command (Kaiserliches Oberkommando der Marine), the Imperial Naval Office (Reichsmarineamt), and the Imperial Naval Cabinet (Kaiserliches Marinekabinett). The Imperial Naval High Command was, on 14 March 1899, replaced by the German Imperial Admiralty Staff, which simply transferred over most of the personnel of the Admiral Staff detachment of the former Naval High Command.

German Goldsmith's House

The German Goldsmith's House (in German: Deutsches Goldschmiedehaus) is the former town hall of the old town of Hanau, which has been used as a museum for jewelry and hollowware (not only from Germany) since the beginning of the 20th century. The director since 2006 is Christianne Weber-Stöber, who holds a doctorate in jewelry history.

Subsequent use

In 1821 the city administration moved out and into a building at Bangertstraße 2.World War II, it served as the museum of the Hanau History Society. In a former small courtyard there was a lapidarium.

During the air raids on Hanau in March 1945, the building burned down to the foundation walls and the two gable walls.

Later structural changes

The half-timbered structure that can be seen today is a reconstruction from the years 1955-1958. A new staircase was added to the rear at that time. In accordance with its use as an exhibition space, the original room layout was dispensed with during reconstruction. In recent years, a modern annex was added to the rear for handicapped access and modern sanitary facilities.

On the south side, a plaque commemorates the Hanau chronicler and music teacher Johann Daniel Wilhelm Ziegler (1809–1878).

In 2004, an extensive archaeological excavation took place at the rear of the building, in its former courtyard, the evaluation of which has also been available since 2021.

Present use

Hanau is one of Germany's cities of fine jewelry. The city has a tradition of the goldsmith's craft going back to the beginning of the 17th century and, with the Staatliche Zeichenakademie Hanau (State Drawing Academy), is the seat of a leading institution for the training of gold- and silversmiths and likewise the seat of the German Society for the Art of Goldsmithing. In a close cooperation between these institutions and through good connections in the Berlin party and leadership of the time, the German Goldsmiths' House was founded on 18 October 1942 and was given its seat in the building, for which purpose the museum of the Hanau History Society, which was located there at the time, was moved to the City Palace. Today, the German Goldsmiths' House hosts temporary exhibitions, especially presentations of author jewelry.


German Goldsmith's House

The goldsmith Ebbe Weiss-Weingart donated 250 pieces of jewelry from the years 1947 to 1998 to the city of Hanau for the German Goldsmiths' House, as an essential contribution to the collection begun in 1960, which today, with well over 1,200 pieces of jewelry and tableware, provides a representative overview of the national and international scene after 1945.Helsinki, Paris, Tokyo and the US.

Dimitrie Leonida

Leonida on a 1983 postage stamp

Dimitrie Leonida (May 23, 1883–March 14, 1965) was a Romanian energy engineer.

Born in Fălticeni, his father Atanase was a cavalry officer, while his mother (née Gill) was the daughter of a French building engineer. He had seven surviving siblings, and despite the family’s financial difficulties, all had distinguished careers, including Elisa Leonida Zamfirescu and Gheorghe Leonida. Frequently moving due to Atanase’s profession, Dimitrie ultimately graduated from Mihai Viteazul National College in Bucharest. He then entered the Technical University of Berlin, graduating with distinction in 1908. While a student, he proposed a subway system for Bucharest.

His thesis proposed what would become the Bicaz-Stejaru Hydroelectric Power Station late in his life, and he spent years advocating for the project. Meanwhile, after returning to Romania, Leonida was hired to direct electrification at Căile Ferate Române railway carrier. For decades, he promoted the electrification of Romania. In 1908, he founded the country’s first school for electricians and mechanics, teaching there without pay for 44 years. He also taught at Politehnica University of Timișoara (1924-1941) and at Politehnica University of Bucharest (1941-1945).

In 1909, he founded what would become the Dimitrie Leonida Technical Museum. The Communist regime awarded him the State Prize in 1954 and the Order of Labor in 1961. The Dimitrie Leonida station of the Bucharest Metro is named after him.


Asashio-class destroyer

ONI image of an Asashio-class destroyer

The Asashio-class destroyers (朝潮型駆逐艦, Asashio-gata kuchikukan) were a class of ten destroyers of the Imperial Japanese Navy in service before and during World War II.

Background

The Imperial Japanese Navy was not entirely satisfied with the performance of the Shiratsuyu-class destroyer, particularly in terms of operational range and speed. However, given the limitations of the 1930 London Naval Treaty, it was considered impossible to modify these vessels any further to improve their specifications. This obstacle was removed after the Japanese government decided to allow the treaty to expire without renewal.Shiratsuyu class were cancelled, and the larger new Asashio-class vessels were approved under the Maru-2 Supplementary Naval Expansion Budget of 1934, with construction spanning 1937-1939 as the treaty did not officially expire until December 31, 1936. All ten vessels were lost in the Pacific War.

Design

The Asashio-class was the first Japanese destroyer class to exceed 2,000 tons displacement and the first to be equipped with sonar. The hull was 30 feet longer than the Shiratsuyu-class and displacement was increased by 300 tons.

The Asashio-class was powered by two steam turbine engines with two shafts, powered by three boilers, which operated at higher temperatures than the Shiratsuyu-class. The rated output of these engines was 50,000 hp (37,000 kW), which gave the class a top speed of 35 knots (65 km/h) and a range of 5,700 nautical miles (10,600 km) at 15 knots (28 km/h) or 960 nautical miles (1,780 km) at 34 knots (63 km/h).Asashio-class was thus one knot faster than the Shiratsuyu-class despite the larger size and displacement of the vessels. However, during sea trials, early critical issues were discovered, especially with the reliability of the new steam turbines. Another issue was with design of the rudder, which initially led to problems with the ship's turning radius. These issues were addressed by the start of the Pacific War with a modified stern and rudder.

Armament

Armament

In terms of armament, the Asashio class reverted to the previous Fubuki main battery layout of 3 twin mount 12.7 cm/50 Type 3 naval guns, instead of the 5-gun design of the more recent Shiratsuyu and Hatsuharu classes that were constructed under treaty limitations. There was one twin turret forward of the bridge and a superfiring pair of twin turrets aft. The guns were capable of 55-degree elevation. Also, the position of the "X" turret at the shelter deck level forward of the quarterdeck "Y" turret, gave the Asashio class a different silhouette than the Shiratsuyu class, where both turrets were at quarterdeck level.

The torpedo armament eight Type 93 torpedo in two quadruple launchers as on the Shiratsuyu-class was retained, with eight reloads stored in a deckhouse on the centerline of the ship. At the start of the war, the Asashio-class was also equipped with 16 depth charges, while previous classes carried 18. Later in the war, the number of depth charges was increased to 36, and to compensate for the weight, one set of four torpedo reloads was removed.

In terms of anti-aircraft capability, initially two twin-mount Type 96 AA guns were placed forward of the second smokestack. The Asashio-class was the first destroyers to receive this type of gun.Kasumi received also two Type 93 13mm machine guns. In late 1944, the final four survivors (Kasumi, Michishio, Asagumo, and Yamagumo) received a Type 22 and a Type 13 radar.

Operational history

Operational history

During the war the Asashio class was used extensively in the protection of the Combined Fleet. Arare was attacked and sunk off Kiska Island during the Aleutian Islands Campaign by USS Growler on 5 July 1942. Kasumi was also heavily damaged along with one other destroyer. Asashio and Arashio escorted the 7th Cruiser Division at the Battle of Midway, where both were damaged by air attack. Although repaired and returned to service, both were sunk in 1943 when a large Japanese transport force was destroyed by American planes in the Battle of the Bismarck Sea. Michishio, Asagumo, and Yamagumo were lost in 1944 in the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Kasumi, last of the class to be laid down, served as escort on the attack on Pearl Harbor and joined the battleship Yamato during Operation Ten-Go against the American fleet at Okinawa. None of the Asashio-class ships survived the Pacific War.
