Geology Of The Upper Middle Creek Area Huerfano County, Colorado, J. H. Copeland

Open Access Master's Theses (through 2010)

The Sangre de Cristo Mountains of Colorado and New Mexico are, geologically speaking, relatively unknown. The equivocal nature of our knowledge of the range was a primary reason for studying a portion of it in some detail. Most of the previous studies have been concerned with the northern part of the range in Colorado, in the general area between Salida and La Veta Pass. This work has indicated that the complicated structure which characterizes the northern part of the range becomes simpler to the south. Therefore, a second objective of the current study has been to test this hypothesis. Thirdly, …

Lethal Concentrations And Detoxification Time Of Toxaphene For Goldfish, Gambusia And Rainbow Trout, Gar W. Workman

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

In the past few years the Utah Fish and Game Department, as well as the fish and game departments of other states, has been spending fisheries money for fish eradication on both lakes and streams. The Utah Fish and Game Department recently suggested to the University that research be initiated on the subject of toxaphene as a fish poison. Consequently, a better insight into conditions that exist for a given water type could be developed.

Nesting Of Mourning Doves In Eastern South Dakota, Lloyd E. Oldenburg

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The mourning dove¹, not presently a game bird in South Dakota, is gaining support toward that status. During the 1959 state legislative season a bill sponsored by the Department of Game, Fish and Parks to place the mourning dove on the game bird list was passed by the House and defeated by the Senate. In a special dove issue of Outdoor California, January 1959, W.K. Kiel (9) stated there are currently 30 states which allow dove hunting. No state bordering South Dakota has an open dove season. However, in a special memorandum of March 7, 1958, the Nebraska Game, Forestation …

Wildlife Utilization Of Stock Ponds In Minnehaha County, South Dakota, James D. Swanson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Introduction: Man’s agricultural activities in South Dakota have greatly altered environmental conditions for nearly all forms of wildlife. Draining and ditching in eastern South Dakota have decreased the acreage of wetlands available to waterfowl and furbearers. Results of conversation practices carried out under the Agricultural Conservation Program as reported by the U. S. Department of Agriculture (1) show that between 1936 and 1937 South Dakota farmers had drained 760,198 acres. Drainage of wetland areas changed once valuable wildlife habitat into drylands which are of little value to waterfowl and furbearers. Waterfowl breeding grounds have been so greatly reduced that few …

Analysis Of Summer Spotlighting For Determining Deer Populations Indices, Donald C. Duerre

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Man changes his environment to suit his needs. In doing so he has destroyed forests, plowed the land, and built cities. Deer have adopted themselves to these changes, and in many instances populations have erupted as a result. Their ability to survive advancement of civilization and increasing hunting pressure has made deer the most important big-game animal in America, The importance of deer as a game animal has caused game agencies to institute more intensive management programs. Proper management of this species has long been a problem of game technicians. In order to obtain an optimum annual harvest, the technician …

A Review Of Fossilization Processes In Different Sedimentary Environments (With Special Reference To The Time Factor Of Deposition Of Ore Minerals Associated With Fossil Material, In Particular The Coprolitic Phosphate Deposits), Giovanna Reggiori Ligasacchi

Masters Theses

"This thesis offers a cross/section through some principal fossilization processes involving organic matter (animals and plants) during and after sedimentation. The influence of different environments during fossilization is considered. The chemical composition of some classes of living invertebrates and plants is compared with the chemical composition of same organisms as found in consolidated sediments as fossils.

Some literature on carbonates, oxides, silicates, phosphates, and sulphides in fossils is reviewed with particular attention to those instances where the fossils are associated with ore minerals. Special consideration is given to the occurrence and composition of fecal matter in recent and consolidated sediments. …

Condensation Of Terephthalaldehyde And Hydroxyacetophenones, Ernest John Bonelli

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Organic pigments were the source of coloring matters used by man until comparatively recent times. It is to be presumed that the first steps in the use of these pigments no dyes resulted from the accidental staining of the skin or fabric by a vegetable material. Prehistoric man, in order to decorate his implements or his person, or even to make records of his mode of life, used the materials with which he came in daily contact. Coloring materials included earth and vegetable substances found in flowers, seeds, berries, nuts, bark, wood, and roots, and less readily available coloring materials …

The Photoreduction Of Indigo Carmine Flavin Mononucleotide And Diphosphopyridine Nucleotide, By Illuminated Chloroplasts, M. Odell Hobbs

Theses and Dissertations

An investigation was made of the photoreduction of indigo carmine dye and flavin mononucleotide (FMN) by an illuminated sugar beet leaf homogenate in the presence of 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol dye (DPIP) and ascorbic acid. DPIP and ascorbate were absolutely required for the reaction. Reconstitution experiments indicated a requirement for a heat-labile factor present in the supernatant fluid following centrifugation of the leaf homogenate. This factor activated the photoreduction of indigo carmine more than 20 times. The photoreduction of FMN was activated 2 times by this factor. Studies on the stoichiometry of indigo carmine photoreduction revealed that one mole of ascorbate was photooxidized …

Physics, Chapter 21: Vibrations And Sound, Henry Semat, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

There are two aspects of sound: one is the physical aspect which involves the physics of the production, propagation, reception, and detection of sound; the other, which is the sensation of sound as perceived by the individual, depends upon physiological and psychological effects. It is not desirable to separate the two aspects of sound completely, but the main emphasis in this book must necessarily be on the physical aspect. In this chapter we shall consider mostly musical sounds. A vocabulary has been developed to describe the sensation experienced when a musical sound is heard. Such terms as the pitch of …

The Glory Trail: The Great American Migration And Its Impact On Natural Resources, Ernest Swift

Other Publications in Wildlife Management

Surprisingly few Americans have any definitive or comprehensive knowledge of the history of their country, although many are under the delusion that their school book history taught them all they needed to know.

They were indoctrinated with a smattering of dates which included the voyage of Columbus and the landing of the pilgrims at Plymouth. They learned what Priscilla said to John Alden, gloated over the Boston Tea Party and memorized part of Patrick Henry's speech; they were briefed on Bunker Hill, Washington crossing the Delaware and the Surrender of Cornwallis. And that just about completed that era.
