This thesis is a series of personal essays that explore themes of
fundamentalism, family, loss, personal growth and the question of free will.
The work reflects my study of the written word, of language, and of how
people have tried to define, or have experienced, the numinous. The essays
are...
Large areas of dwarf mistletoe-free, all-aged lodgepole pine have been identified in the West Yellowstone Basin. The option of uneven-aged management in these areas remains available to the District.
A microclimatology study was conducted on a high elevation clearcut
near the summit of Mt. Ashland in southwest Oregon to evaluate the effects
of frost on Douglas-fir seedling growth and survival. Frost and low
temperatures cause seedling stress through frost damage, frost desiccation,
increased root resistance, and decreased rates of...
Four formations of the Cretaceous Nanaimo Group crop out on Galiano Island and on Parker and Gossip Islands, nearby. These formations are: early Campanian Geoffrey Formation which encloses a tongue of the Northumberland Formation; early Campanian to late Maestrichtian Spray Formation; and Maestrichtian Gabriola Formation. The stratigraphic succession has a...

Major psychotic disorders are one of the leading causes of disability worldwide, having severe impacts on the people who suffer from the conditions, their families and society. There is evidence that if these conditions are identified and treated early, the prognosis is improved. The purpose of this dissertation study is...
The existence of generalized symmetries of Maxwell's equations in Gödel's Universe is investigated. It is shown that their existence is in turn tied to the existence of certain spinorial objects called Killing spinors.
The conformal algebra, corresponding to valence (1; 1) Killing spinors, for Gödel's Universe is discussed in detail....
