Satellite snow cover observations would aid in these streamflow forecasts
by providing snow cover data at regular time intervals. Unfortunately,
satellite capability to remotely sense mountain snow cover
conditions is indeterminate due to...

increasing demand for consumptive uses of water, as well as certain
deficiencies in the laws, policies, and administration of the program,
bring into...

an ethnic basketball league in Japanese-American communities affected
the rate of assimilation of two groups of Japanese-American, high-school...
