and awareness regarding a neighboring natural resource complex.
Factors, however, such as proximity, personal interests, use patterns
and economic considerations cause local inhabitants to have an
inaccurate perception of the natural resource complex. The nature
of local resident perception can be analyzed...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
ALLAN DEANE WOOD for the
Paleozoic limestones, dolomites, quartz arenites, and other
clastic rocks were mapped in the vicinity of Dobbin Summit and
Clear Creek in the central Monitor Range. Sedimentary rock units
present in this area represent the shallow-shelf eastern assemblage
and basin and also the basin-slope facies of the traditional limestoneclastic
assemblage.
The...

Eleven small Mesozoic plutons crop out within a 76-squaremile
area of the southern Seven Devils Mountains in west-central
Idaho. The plutons are divided into a mafic suite, an older granitic
suite, and a younger granitic suite on the basis of age, lithology, and
degree of metamorphism.
The six plutons of...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
Richard Eugene White for the degree
The purpose of this study was to test two hypotheses. The first
hypothesis interprets allochthonous rocks in the Willow Creek area of the
Pinyon Range as lying on flat, superficial thrusts that truncate the
underlying folded Mississippian rocks of the Antler flysch sequence.
The second hypothesis interprets the allochthonous rocks...

Unifications among agricultural cooperatives are becoming increasingly commonplace. This process is prompted by the desire to achieve economies of size, to reduce operating costs, to achieve product diversification, to improve the quality of offered services, to eliminate overlapping memberships, and to achieve marketing and/or bargaining power. Historical data indicate that...
The Virgin Valley-McGee Mountain area is located in the northwest
