The dynamical processes which maintain atmospheric disturbances
in regions of strong wintertime variability of the northern hemisphere
are examined using data from a GCM simulation. Time series of the
dependent variables and diabatic heating components from 10 Northern
Hemisphere winters simulated by the Oregon State University two-level
GCM are used....
This project investigates the ways in which conceptions of women and gender in Islam are articulated within discourses of modernity, freedom, and justice. Considering the ways in which third-world literature and scholarship interacts with, and creates, multiculturalist discourse, this paper examines representation, spokesmanship, and the role of the cosmopolitan humanities...
Despite research advancements, the medical field contributes to many health disparities, or situations in which groups that were historically oppressed also experience systematically worse health and greater health risks than more advantaged groups. Although some researchers have paid attention to this population, most studies focus on transition-related care (mostly surgeries...
According to Katherine McKittrick, black women’s geographies reveal and confront geographies of domination that have been erased or considered unworthy of analysis. This thesis positions #SayHerName protests and natural kink/coiled hair within a black women’s geographic analysis suggesting that both body and hair politics provide historical and contemporary geographic clues...

During Pliocene time a cluster of basaltic and basaltic andesite shield volcanoes was built in the
Three Sisters region. Included in this cluster are the North Sister, Little Brother, Husband, Wife,
Sphinx and Broken Top, the radial dikes and conduit fillings of which have been laid bare by
glacial erosion....
This thesis examines the representation of consumer culture in Fight Club within the context of Frederic Jameson's theory of postmodernism. I propose that the film represents consumer culture as a totalizing system. This representation is evident in the setting of the film and in the Narrator's attempt to escape from...
Glacial deposits on San Francisco Mountain, Arizona, were mapped in order to provide constraints on ice extents in separate valleys for late Pleistocene glacial events. Qualitative and semi-quantitative relative dating methods were employed in order to correlate moraines between drainages and to provide a basis for distinguishing between separate glacial...
