The Spatial Distribution Of Phytoplankton In Westhampton Lake, Richmond, Virginia, James William Newlin
The Spatial Distribution Of Phytoplankton In Westhampton Lake, Richmond, Virginia, James William Newlin
Master's Theses
The hypothesis is that spatial distributions of phytoplankton standing crop and photosynthetic capacity in Westhampton Lake are homogeneous was tested. Distributions were analyzed with respect to horizontal and vertical planes separately and combined. The study was divided into three time period: 1) late summer stratification, 2) early fall mixing, and 3) fall turnover, based on isothermal lines of the lake at the deepest station. Phytoplankton standing crop was measured by spectrophotometric and fluorometric methods. The photosynthetic capacity was measured flurometrically. Combined horizontal and vertical spatial distribution of standing crop was clumped for the entire lake and during each time period. …
Population Stability Of Three Species Of Zooplankton In Westhampton Lake, Richmond, Virginia, James Christopher Conyers
Population Stability Of Three Species Of Zooplankton In Westhampton Lake, Richmond, Virginia, James Christopher Conyers
Master's Theses
Populations of zooplankton, Keratella cochlea's (Rotifera) Bosmina longirostris (Cladocera), and Mesocyclopsedax (Copepoda) were sampled in Westhampton Lake from June 30 to December 22, 1978. Population densities were estimated over time and analyzed for stability relative to the occurrence of rainfall. Two aspects of stability were used for analysis and given operational definitions as follows: Resistance - a population was resistant if its density was not more variable during periods of rain compared with periods of little or no rain; Persistence - a population was persistent if its density during periods of rain was not different from its density in periods …
The Political And Legal Framework For Cable Television Franchising By Virginia Local Government, Clyde Edward Roettger
The Political And Legal Framework For Cable Television Franchising By Virginia Local Government, Clyde Edward Roettger
Master's Theses
Within the last decade state-of-the-art cable television has gone from an unsuccessful, premature proposal in Virginia, to operative franchises in several jurisdictions , including Richm::m.d, Henrico, Chesterfield, Arlington, and Alexandria. There are also a number of franchises which have been in operation for many years and which are intended largely for reception improvement with sone minimal extra services, such as those in Petersburg, Hopewell and Colonial Heights. It is proposed here to raise significant issues which could have been addressed by Virginia state and local government as to the regulation of this rapid growth of cable television in the Cormnnwealth, …
The Vascular Flora Of The Kersey-Crump Creek Watershed, Hanover County, Virginia, Eddie Reeves Smith
The Vascular Flora Of The Kersey-Crump Creek Watershed, Hanover County, Virginia, Eddie Reeves Smith
Master's Theses
A floristic survey was conducted in the Kersey-Crump Creek watershed, Hanover County, Virginia from spring 1978 through summer 1980. This upper Coastal Plain area (42 km2) near the fall line yielded 514 species of vascular plants, representing 334 genera and 113 families. Four hundred and seventy-nine county records were established. Panax trifolium, colonizing a rich wooded creek bottom, was the only plant rare to Virginia. Voucher specimens are deposited in the herbaria of the University of Richmond, Virginia, and the College of William and Mary, Williamsburg, Virginia.
