In-Situ Burning in the Marshland Environment - Recovery and Regrowth of Spartina Alterniflora, Spartina Patens, and Sagittaria Lancifolia Plants

March 1, 2003
Author(s)
I A. Mendelson, Q N. Lin, Nelson P. Bryner, William D. Walton, W H. Twilley, J V. Mullin
In a series of in-situ burns involving 330 plant mesocosms, including Spartina Alterniflora, Spartina Patens, Distichlis spicata, and Sagittaria Lancifolia sods were exposed to burning diesel fuel or crude oil. Oil spilled in sensitive wetlands pose unique

In-Situ Burning in the Marshland Environment - Soil Temperatures Resulting From Crude Oil and Diesel Fuel Burns (NIST SP 995)

March 1, 2003
Author(s)
Nelson P. Bryner, William D. Walton, W H. Twilley, G Roadarmel, I. A. Mendelssohn, J. V. Mullin
A series of burns was conducted to evaluate the impact of intentional burning of an oil spill in a marshland environment. Oil spilled in sensitive wetland environments pose unique problems associated with cleanup because mechanical recovery in wetlands may

Nelson P. Bryner, William D. Walton, Laurean A. DeLauter, W H. Twilley, I. A. Mendelssohn, Q. Lin
A series of burns was conducted to evaluate the impact of intentional burning of an oil spill in a marshland environment. Oil spilled in sensitive wetland environments pose unique problems associated with cleanup because mechanical recovery in wetlands may

Response of Portable Particulate Monitoring Instruments to Combustion Particulates, Road Dust, and Salt Aerosols. Volume 2 (NIST SP 995)

March 1, 2003
Author(s)
Nelson P. Bryner, William D. Walton, Laurean A. DeLauter, W H. Twilley, J. V. Mullin
This study examined the response of several particulate monitoring instruments to aerosols which might be encountered during monitoring of an in situ oil spill burn. Aerosols included road dust, salt, and particulates from the combustion of heptane, diesel

Second Phase Evaluation of a Protocol for Testing Fire-Resistant Oil Spill Containment Boom. Volume 2 (NIST SP 995)

March 1, 2003
Author(s)
William D. Walton, W H. Twilley, Nelson P. Bryner, Laurean A. DeLauter, R. R. Hiltabrand, J. V. Mullin
A second series of fire tests utilizing the ASTM F-20 draft, Standard Guide for In Situ Burning of Oil Spills On Water: Fire-Resistant Containment Boom, as a guideline were conducted in a wave tank at the U.S. Coast Guard Fire and Safety Test Detachment in

Performance of Personal Alert Safety Systems in Laboratory and Full-Scale Experiments

April 18, 2002
Author(s)
Nelson P. Bryner, Daniel M. Madrzykowski, D W. Stroup, J H. Lee
In 1998, over 500 firefighters in the United States were trapped in structure fires that resulted in injury or death of firefighters. Firefighters can be quickly overcome by the heat or smoke of a fire and may be unable to alert other fire ground personnel

Measurement of the 100 nm NIST SRM 1963 by Differential Mobility Analysis

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
George W. Mulholland, Nelson P. Bryner, C M. Croarkin
The number mean diameter of 100 nm NTST Standard Reference Material (SRM) 1963 was measured to be 100.7 nm with an expanded uncertainty at the 95% confidence level of 1.0 nm by measurement with the differential mobility analyzer (DMA). The low level of
