Over 10,000 feet of marine and nonmarine Late Cretaceous sedimentary rocks are exposed within a 110 square mile area in northeastern Teton County, Wyoming. An additional 1400 feet of nonmarine Paleocene and Miocene rocks overlie these. Landslide deposits and Pleistocene glacial moraine cover over one-half of the area. The Late...
As indicated by the title, this thesis generalizes the Main Inertia
Theorem of Ostrowski and Schneider [8]. The first three results
concern the formation of a polynomial function f(A, A*, H) so that
the existence of an hermitian H for which f(A, A*, H) is positive
definite is a necessary...
Throughout the Holocene, appreciable changes in bathymetry are hypothesized to have resulted in large changes to tidal datums in coastal and estuarine areas. An understanding of tidal change is an important contribution to the knowledge of relative historical sea-level change and future coastal planning. To test this hypothesis, the Advanced...

Using an oral history method, the author has recorded the life
history of Rosa González Gómez, a Mexican woman who spends part of
each year in the United States and part in Mexico. Comparing the
story of Rosa's life, as told in her own words, with literature in the
social...
Throughout the course of this thesis, I argue that the prose of David Foster Wallace, specifically his posthumously published novel The Pale King, inhabits a middle ground between universal sincerity and the particularized authenticity of postmodern irony. I examine Lionel Trilling's definitions of sincerity and authenticity before moving toward an...
Lipids, especially phospholipids, are very common
but important molecules found in cells and animal
tissue, performing many biological functions, particularly
in membranes. Lipids, when mixed with water,
spontaneously form ordered systems, such as micelles,
vesicles and multibilayers. The size of these systems
and their degree of ordering depend on the...
The adsorption of uranium ions from seawater could be of importance
as reserves of uranium are depleted. The structure, chemical
state, and concentration of uranium in seawater have been previously
determined. Uranium exists as a charged ion, UO₂(CO₃)₃⁴⁻. The concentration
in seawater is 3.3 parts per billion.
Previous studies with...
