Collaborative decision-making is often promoted as a means to achieve socially acceptable and enduring solutions to natural resource management issues, and one that holds promise for resolving “wicked” problems. However, success rates for implementation of collaborative recommendations are unknown. This paper explores challenges to collaborative salmon fishery management in Prince...
In This Side of Paradise, The Great Gatsby, and several of his short stories, F.
Scott Fitzgerald questions the importance of wealth as a factor in supporting
happiness and fostering the American Dream on an individual basis. With
these texts, Fitzgerald acknowledges that wealth is a factor and,
simultaneously, a...
When the dc conductivities of various pure KC1 crystals were
compared it was found that crystals grown under an HC1 atmosphere,
from salt purified by ion exchange, exhibited lower knee temperatures
than any of the crystals studied. These knee temperatures
were found to be approximately 350°C. From this the total...
The hydroxide ion as a substitutional defect in KC1 can be photo-dissociated
at liquid nitrogen temperature by ultraviolet light. The
photochemistry of this system was investigated by EPR and optical absorption
methods. Theoretical calculations were also performed in an
investigation of the KC1:OH system.
The bleaching behavior of photochemically colored...
A survey of the methods of purification of KC1, for use in
preparing single crystals by growth from the melt, was made. Two
methods, fractional recrystallization and ion exchange, were used.
The purity of the salt and crystals grown from the same salt were
compared with the findings of other...
This thesis is a work of literary non-fiction. It
is divided into six sections. The first, "A Sense of
Place," and the last, "Pulling a Geographical," are
collage essays which establish and then reiterate major
themes in the work: movement, work, geography,
climate, people, and education--some curricular, some
not. The...
Three groups of experiments were performed to determine an effective
procedure for controlling decay in southern pine (Pinus spp.)
laminated timbers. (i) A decaying laminated arch of southern pine was
treated with chloropicrin. Movement of the chemical vapor through the
arch and its effect on the decay and nondecay fungal...
In society, labeling can play an important role in how people interact with one another every day. This research focuses on the relationship between internalization and deviance, two important concepts in Labeling Theory. The main question is, does the internalization of a label play a role, whether it be positive...
