Karl Jordan : a life in systematics

Creator:: Johnson, Kristin Renee

Ionizing radiation and its chemical effects : a historical study of chemical dosimetry (1902-1962)

Creator:: Chorzempa, Mary André, Sister

John Archibald Wheeler : a study of mentoring in modern physics

Creator:: Christensen, Terry M.
Abstract:: This dissertation has two objectives. The first objective is to determine where best to situate the study of mentoring (i.e. the 'making of scientists') on the landscape of the history of science and science studies. This task is accomplished by establishing mentoring studies as a link between the robust body...

Education of American research astronomers, 1876-1941

Creator:: Hall, Robert Dale, 1947-
Abstract:: The education (particularly graduate education) of Americans who were active in astronomical research between 1876 and 1941 is assessed for its effectiveness in preparing the astronomers for careers in research. This period contains three dynamic changes: the growth of American astronomy in becoming the world's leading community of astronomers, the...

Patterns in coastal marsh vegetation of the Juneau area, Alaska

Creator:: Stone, Catherine S.
Abstract:: A vegetation study was made of four coastal marshes near Juneau, Alaska. Results confirmed earlier studies' findings in southeast Alaska that communities or assemblages of species can be identified but from marsh to marsh these assemblages appear to have no consistent relationship to each other or to environmental "factors" such...

Consumer attitudes toward potentially restrictive energy conservation regulations

Creator:: Merfeld, Michele Kay
Abstract:: A sample of 893 Oregon individuals from a Western Regional Agricultural Experiment Station Project (W-159 "Consequences of Energy Conservation Policies for Western Region Households") was used to analyze consumer attitudes toward potentially restrictive energy conservation regulations. Belief in the seriousness of the energy problem, a psychological measure of internal control...
