Late Summer Glacial Meltwater Contributions To Bull Lake Creek Stream Flow And Water Quality, Wind River Range, Wyoming, Usa, Jeffrey Vanlooy, Gregory S. Vandeberg
Late Summer Glacial Meltwater Contributions To Bull Lake Creek Stream Flow And Water Quality, Wind River Range, Wyoming, Usa, Jeffrey Vanlooy, Gregory S. Vandeberg
Earth System Science and Policy Faculty Publications
The Wind River Range in Wyoming contains more glacial ice than any other location within the USA’s Rocky Mountain states of Colorado, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. Bull Lake Creek watershed in the southeast portion of the range contains five major (0.6–1.5 km2) glaciers along with numerous smaller glaciers that contribute to the Wind River. Field measurements were made of discharge from the Knife Point and Bull Lake Glaciers to determine the contribution of glacial meltwater to the river system. Water samples were collected and analyzed for stable isotopes, major ions, nutrients, and selected trace elements. Meltwater from the two glaciers …

Data Base Design For Research In Comparative Zapotec, Anita C. Bickford
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis explores the nature and content of a comparative data base for the Zapotec languages of Mexico that may be produced. Many questions are discussed: how to sub-divide and list the Zapotec languages and dialects; what data format will be most accessible to researchers as well as to field workers with data to add; computer software considerations (designing computational tools); how to handle non-cognates with shared meanings, non-overlap of glosses (i.e., one Zapotec gloss covers several Spanish words, or vice versa), semantic shifts and secondary meanings, and other problems such as special characters, free variation, elisions, etc.; whether to …
