Monograph

This issue contains nine papers on the environment. Specific topics addressed in this issue include the following: a recycled material web map; composting roadkill; Alaska and Florida climate adaptation studies; wildlife activity and behavior near unfenced underpasses; an onboard sound intensity calibrator for tire-noise measurement; a quieter pavement demonstration program; light rail vehicle noise; historic transportation structure preservation and reclamation; and traffic-related heavy metal contamination.
