IYSH-3 is the final account in the trilogy, IYSH, IYSH-2 and IYSH-3. Ari ben Horwitz, a sabre from Kibbutz Yizreal, meets the Butlion family in Jerusalem. His life becomes intertwined with theirs as they visit the sites in the Holy Land. His actions as a young Israeli soldier during the Yom Kippur War and subsequent activities for the covert operation, Caesarea leads him closer to the Butlion family than he could ever have imagined. The compelling force of military activity that sometimes results in a guilt-ridden conscience can only be eradicated when forgiveness is personally expressed. The story brilliantly captures the strained relationship between Jew and Arab intertwining it with the ever-present hunger in everyone's heart for peace.

Earthquake Site Conditions in the Wasatch Front Corridor, Utah

Genre:
ISBN: 1557917922

This CD contains a 41-page report and a 1:150,000-scale map defining seismic site conditions for the Wasatch Front urban corridor. This mapping, partially funded through the U.S. Geological Survey’s National Hazards Reduction Program, provides a basis for predicting how certain soils and bedrock types may respond to ground-motion amplification in a large-magnitude earthquake on the Wasatch fault. Average shear-wave velocities were used for the upper 30 meters and surficial geologic mapping to delineate and characterize earthquake-site-conditions units that relate to International Building Code site classes. Better understanding of soil properties and earthquake-site effects for the densely populated Wasatch Front allows for improved earthquake engineering and emergency planning and response. 41 pages + 1 plate

Hydrogeology and Simulation of Groundwater Flow in Cedar Valley, Utah County, Utah

Release: 2012
Genre: Aquifers
ISBN: 1557918686

This CD contains a 125-page comprehensive study of the hydrogeology of Cedar Valley, Utah County, located in north-central Utah. The report includes 72 figures; two plates, one of which is a potentiometric map of the basin-fill, bedrock, and several perched aquifers; and seven appendices of data. Field investigations included groundwater chemistry sampling, regular water-level monitoring, and multiple-well aquifer testing. The field data were incorporated into a 3D digital groundwater flow model using MODFLOW2000. Seventy percent of the recharge to the Cedar Valley aquifer system is from precipitation in the Oquirrh Mountains. Groundwater generally flows from west to east and exits the aquifer system mostly as interbasin flow through bedrock to the northeast and southeast. The groundwater model showed a 39-year (1969-2007) average recharge to the Cedar Valley groundwater system of 25,600 acre-feet per year and discharge of 25,200 acre-feet per year. A significant volume of precipitation recharge (perhaps 4300 acre-feet per year) does not interact with the basin-fill aquifer but travels within bedrock to discharge to adjacent valleys or as bedrock well discharge. 125 pages + 2 plates
