Peak discharge estimates are fundamental in the design of hydraulic structures, embankment protection, and stream restoration efforts, as well as flood risk analysis. Historic stream gage records are commonly used in the development of peak discharge estimates for a particular watershed. Use of an entire stream gage record assumes hydrologic...
This manual provides guidance on creating subject heading proposals for Indigenous topics that can be submitted to the Subject Authority Cooperative Program (SACO) for addition to the Library of Congress Subject Headings.
The first published notion that the j-function was in any way related to the Monster came in 1979, when Conway and Norton noted in [CN79] that each coefficient in the q- expansion of the j-function could be written as a (nontrivial) integral linear combination of the dimensions of irreducible representations...
My thesis is comprised of two articles, titled "Journeying Through (An)Other World: Examining the Role of Magic and Transformational Otherness in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" and "Magic, Muggles, and Mudbloods: Examining Magical Otherness in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter Series." The introduction frames the thematic, theoretical, and critical connections...
Driven by the need for high energy-density power sources, demand has
stimulated the development of small-scale engines. A small-scale engine
with a fuel supply could replace batteries and utilize higher energy-density
liquid hydrocarbon fuels; such an advance could deliver a new age of
portable devices. Currently, operable small-scale engines exist;...
Over the past fourteen years since the attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, Americans of varied political persuasions have continually identified the day as a defining moment in the history of the nation, which caused a rupture in the cultural rhythm and psyche. This sensibility is...

This study was to look at: (1) the orientation subjects' had
toward the resolution of conflict situations, and (2) associations between
personality traits, selected demographic characteristics and
subjects' orientation to conflict resolution.
Procedures
Eighty-seven subjects, 23 male and 64 female...
In April of 1974, Oregon State University conducted a geophysical
survey of the Orozco fracture zone, a Left-lateral transform fault
which offsets the East Pacific Rise off the coast of Mexico near
15°N, 105°W. Magnetic, gravity, bathymetric, and seismic reflection
data were collected during a four day period. This survey...
Power spectral analysis using the maximum entropy method is
applied to the estimation of depth to the source of magnetic anomalies.
The method assumes that the source is two-dimensional and has a
magnetization with random intensity. The predictive ability of the
maximum entropy technique permits analysis of short segments of...
