 Navy Transfers Space Surveillance Mission to Air Force
The transfer of Fence operations to the Air Force brings an end to more than 40 years of Navy control of the sensor from Dahlgren, first by the Naval Space Surveillance System (NAVSPASUR), then assumed by Naval Space Command in 1993, and finally by NNSOC when that organization was established in 2002.
The Secretary of Defense had directed the Navy to transfer program management of the system to the Air Force beginning in October 2003.
Approximately 60 civilian personnel at Dahlgren — former NNSOC employees who directly support Fence and ASCC operations — will continue to work in their current functions, only as Air Force employees.

 FLORA OF NORTH AMERICA - Volume 1, Chapter 15
Cronquist and Takhtajan considered this to be Alismatidae; Dahlgren and Thorne began with the equivalent of Liliidae.
The tradition of distinguishing monocots and dicots at one of the higher taxonomic ranks, as by Cronquist and Takhtajan at the rank of class, was not retained by Dahlgren and Thorne, who considered the flowering plants to be divided into a series of superorders.
Cronquist's Dilleniidae, with 77 families, are the second largest subclass of his Magnoliopsida, and one whose representatives in our flora tend to be highly specialized.
