The Mineral Resources Of The Sevier River Drainage, Central Utah, David T. Sanders
The Mineral Resources Of The Sevier River Drainage, Central Utah, David T. Sanders
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
A survey of the mineral resources, the economic rock products, and the ground-water reserves of that part of central Utah drained by the Sevier River system was undertaken by the author in the fall of 1960 as a continuation of a research project directed toward the stimulation of economic growth in the state of Utah. The project was initiated in 1959 by Dr. Donald R. Olsen and Dr. J. Stewart Williams, who conducted a similar survey of a five county area in southwestern Utah (Olsen and Williams, 1960).
Through a review of existing literature, preliminary field examination of most of …
Geology Of The Summer Ranch And North Promontory Mountains, Utah, O. Clair Adams
Geology Of The Summer Ranch And North Promontory Mountains, Utah, O. Clair Adams
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The Summer Ranch and North Promontory Mountains have not been studied in detail geologically, although the surrounding mountains have been extensively investigated. Within the limits of this area, sedimentary rocks of Mississippian through Permian crop out. Sedimentary and volcanic rocks of Tertiary age are also exposed. Extensive Lake Bonneville deposits underlie the valleys and overlap the foothills.
The Influence Of Advective Energy On Evapotranspiration, Mahmoud Abdel Aziz
The Influence Of Advective Energy On Evapotranspiration, Mahmoud Abdel Aziz
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Evaporation and transpiration from the soil and plant, respectively, have received increasing attention from those who work with water supply, irrigation, and drainage.
On The Enthalpy And Entropy Of Soil Water, Robert A. Kohl
On The Enthalpy And Entropy Of Soil Water, Robert A. Kohl
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Just twenty years have passed since the first papers were published on the application of chemical thermodynamics to the soil-water system (11, 14). Since then, soil physicists have used thermodynamics in an attempt to characterize and learn more about this intricate system.
Relations Between Transpiration, Leaf Temperatures, And Some Environmental Factors, Ronald Kay Tew
Relations Between Transpiration, Leaf Temperatures, And Some Environmental Factors, Ronald Kay Tew
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Transpiration is the loss of water in vapor form from a plant. This is essentially the same process as evaporation except that it is modified by plant structure. Large quantities of water are removed from the soil, transferred through the conducting tissues of the plant, and dissipated into the air each day. As soon as the water is lost to the atmosphere, it becomes unavailable for human use.
Upper Cretaceous Stratigraphy Of The Central Part Of Utah, Fredric R. Van De Graaff
Upper Cretaceous Stratigraphy Of The Central Part Of Utah, Fredric R. Van De Graaff
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Rocks of Late Cretaceous age in the central part of Utah are dominantly elastic. In general, the sediments in the west are of conglomerate and sandstone of continental origin; the sediments in the east are of sandstone and shale of marine origin, These rocks were deposited at or near the western shore of a sea which extended from the Arctic to the Gulf of Mexico. The strand line lay in a general northern direction through Utah with land to the west and marine water to the east.
The Effect Of Chelates On Phosphorus Availability And Mobility, Salah Ahmed Tahoun
The Effect Of Chelates On Phosphorus Availability And Mobility, Salah Ahmed Tahoun
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Soil-phosphorus relations and plant-phosphorus relations have attracted the interest of many investigators since Liebig introduced his famous theory about the importance of the mineral matters to the plant in 1840. It was soon realized that phosphorus nutrition was a problem not easily solved for two reasons. 1. The added phosphorus fertilizers, soon after soil application are converted by some reactions in the soil to complex compounds far less soluble, consequently less available to the plant. Conclusions about this process led to controversial debates until it was discovered that a general statement covering all soils was impossible since the reactions involved …
