Imagining the Multilayered Cultural Landscape: A Template from the Columbia Plateau of North America by Paul R. Nickens

“…A case study is presented from the Hanford Site in south-central Washington state, USA, where the natural landscape comprises prehistoric Native American, historic ethnographic, and historic period non-Indian evidence from over 10,000 years of occupation and use that clearly separate into several culturally and chronologically defined and overlapping cultural landscapes, which can be visualized as layered entities occurring on the same physical space.…”

Compressional wave velocity and effective stress in unsaturated soil: Potential application for monitoring moisture conditions in vadose zone sediments by Dorothy C. Linneman, Christopher E. Strickland, Adam R. Mangel

“…Abstract Compressional seismic (P‐wave) velocities were measured experimentally at different matric suctions and confining pressure states using a variety of sediments collected from the USDOE Hanford Site in southeastern Washington State. The P‐wave velocity was measured in variably saturated sediments using ultrasonic piezoelectric transducers, and matric suction was measured with a heat dissipation sensor. …”

Quantitative Modeling of Microbial Population Responses to Chronic Irradiation Combined with Other Stressors. by Igor Shuryak, Ekaterina Dadachova

“…To identify general patterns of microbial responses to multiple stressors in radioactive environments, we analyzed three data sets on: (1) bacteria isolated from soil contaminated by nuclear waste at the Hanford site (USA); (2) fungi isolated from the Chernobyl nuclear-power plant (Ukraine) buildings after the accident; (3) yeast subjected to continuous γ-irradiation in the laboratory, where radiation dose rate and cell removal rate were independently varied. …”
