Crustal structure of the Baja Peninsula between latitudes 22 ̊N and 25 ̊N

Creator:: Huehn, Bruce
Abstract:: Geophysical data collected in 1975 and 1976 reveal major crustal and tectonic elements of the continental margin of southern Baja California. Gravity, magnetic, seismic reflection and bathymetric data show seaward extension of the islands enclosing Magdalena and Almejas Bays. A seismic reflection profile, oriented approximately normal to the trend of...

Two studies concerning rare earth elements : I. Rare earth DTPA complexes as estuarine hydrological tracers : II. Rare earth elemental concentrations in some Pacific Northwest rivers

Creator:: Keasler, Kenneth M.
Abstract:: Two studies were conducted involving rare earth elements. In the first study, the use of rare earth diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) complexes as stable actiable tracers, a method of stable-isotope tracing with post-sampling neutron activation analysis, was explored. The persistence of rare earth DTPA complexes in estuarine waters was measured in...

The Ibis, journal of the British Ornithologists' Union : a pre-synthesis portrait

Creator:: Johnson, Kristin Renee
Abstract:: In 1959 the British Ornithological journal, The Ibis, published a centenary commemorative volume on the history of ornithology in Britain. Over the previous few decades, the contributors to this volume had helped focus the attention of ornithologists on the methods, priorities, and problems of modem biology, specifically the theory ofevolution...

Comparative analysis of Google Earth versus traditional paper maps in middle school earth science education

Creator:: Edstrom, Jillian Aasta
Abstract:: As GIS becomes more prominent in academic classrooms at all levels of education, the subject of geography and its related disciplines can be approached with a geospatial technology perspective, using new tools and lesson plans. The implementation of Google Earth in classrooms is just one example of this. Research was...

Cross-cultural and Sustainability Values in International Freshwater Management Institutions

Creator:: Porta, E. Lynn
Abstract:: In the process of building international water policies and management institutions, like international treaties and River Basin Organizations, States simultaneously signal the values that they view as most important in these different institutions. Examining expressed and acted-upon values for transboundary freshwater management are currently under-explored areas where overlapping lenses of...

Sonobuoy refraction study of the crust in the Gorda Basin

Creator:: Cook, Jeffrey A.
Abstract:: The Gorda Basin is a young oceanic plate which comes in direct contact with the convergent margin of western North America. Two long sonobuoy refraction profiles crossing the basin provide nearly continuous data for computing the velocity structure of the crust and adjacent continental slope. Time-term analysis utilizing multiple receivers...

An Exploration of the Research Capacity Building Potential of Informal Higher Education Marine Science Programs in an International Context

Creator:: Moskel, Jennifer M.
Abstract:: Informal higher education science learning programs are increasingly being used as a tool to build scientific research capacity. However, there is low understanding of the impact that these programs on their target audiences, which is important to future capacity building efforts and program design. The purpose of this research project...

Observations on the evolution of shoaling nonlinear internal waves in Massachusetts Bay using shipboard X-band radar

Creator:: Nelson, Brian G.
Abstract:: During four cruises in July and September of 2008 and 2009, the shipboard X-band radar was tuned to detect the modulated bands of surface roughness caused by converging and diverging currents associated with high-frequency nonlinear internal wave (NLIW) packets. The data collected was used to quantify the propagation direction (ϴp),...

Wave-by-Wave Forecasting via Assimilation of Marine Radar Data

Creator:: Simpson, Alexandra Joyce
Abstract:: A wave-by-wave forecasting system is desired for optimization of wave energy conversion devices and for improving safety of vessel-based marine operations. This study outlines the first validation attempts of a recently developed forecasting system called Wavecast. The forecasting approach uses X-Band marine radar images for data assimilation, then reconstructs and...

Theoretical physics takes root in America : John Archibald Wheeler as student and mentor

Creator:: Christensen, Terry M.
Abstract:: John Archibald Wheeler (09 July 1911- ) is a familiar name to physicists and historians of physics alike. Among his many contributions to the corpus of knowledge, in 1939 John Wheeler and Niels Bohr co-authored the first paper on the generalized mechanism of nuclear fission. Beyond that seminal work, Wheeler...
