The Law Of The Sea: International Law Implications Of The U.S. Refusal To Sign The Treaty, Richard D. Coogan

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

This study is undertaken to show the impact of the international law aspects of the Law of the Sea Treaty as they relate to the U.S. failure to sign the Treaty. The U.S. has embarked on a course of action, by its refusal to sign the Treaty, that can have major impact on day-to-day national policy issues as they relate to international law governing a state's behavior. The U.S., in refusing to sign the Treaty because of the deep seabed provisions, and yet claiming other provisions as reflecting customary law, is probably correct as viewed in today's realities.

U.S. Flag Merchant Vessels For The Future: Many Requirements For A Limited Resource, Donald R. Ditko

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

Decline in military useful ships is one indication of the general decline in the U.S. merchant marine since the massive Liberty and Victory programs of World War II. As the statistics in Part II will show, the U.S. flag merchant marine is facing possible nonexistence if a resurgence is not realized within this decade. Numbers of ships is only a small part of a complicated problem, however. A more serious question is the idea of a militarily useful hull.

Soviet Predatory Practices In The U. S. Liner Trades: Strategy And Prospects, Daniel D. Thompson

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

The impressive growth of the Soviet Merchant Marine during the past two decades. and its anticipated future expansion have given rise to questions concerning the likely future impact of that fleet on world shipping and the relative importance of maritime commerce to the Soviet Union itself. U.S. owners and regulatory bodies have, along with other Western owners and shipping bodies, consistently pointed an accusing finger at the Soviets for attempting to capture more than a fair share of general cargo tonnage in the world liner market. Charges of predatory Soviet rate cutting practices have been widely advertised by American operators …

Causes Of The Decline Of The Merchant Marine And Prospects For Renewal Under Current Federal Maritime Policy, William A. Tait

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

The purpose of this paper is to identify, with particular emphasis on federal maritime policy, the reasons why the merchant marine and maritime industry of the United States have so dramatically declined in size, capacity, and competitiveness in recent years.Current and proposed government policy, particularly that of the Reagan Administration, will be examined along with viewpoints of representative maritime industry sectors to assess the prospects for solving the problems that plague the merchant marine. Finally, recommendations will be offered which are considered most likely to improve the vitality of the merchant marine.

Spatial And Temporal Variations In Long-Term Normal Percent Possible Solar Radiation Levels In The United States, Robert C. Balling, Randall S. Cerveny

School of Natural Resources: Faculty Publications

The purpose of this study was to analyze the time and space variations in long-term monthly-averaged daily percent possible solar radiation levels in the United States. Both principal components analysis and harmonic analysis were used to identify the influences of various synoptic-scale climatological phenomena on solar radiation receipt. Generally, an annual cycle was found with maximum percent possible radiation levels occurring in July. In many regions the temporal variance structure deviated from this general annual cycle. The results, which are useful in both theoretical and practical studies, lead to a better understanding of the climatology of solar radiation in the …

Sixty-Day Temperature Persistence At Five-Day Intervals For Minneapolis-St. Paul, Charles J. Fisk

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

The annual course of 60-day temperature persistence for Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota is examined at five -clay intervals for the last 110 years. Results show maximum persistence for the 60-day periods February 20 to April 20 and June 25 to August 23. Minimum persistence is observed for sequences whose midpoints correspond to late April, late September and mid-November. This suggests the presence of a single favored regime-breaking period for the winter to summer transition and two such periods for summer to winter.

Offshore Jurisdiction And Federal-State Relations: The 12 Nautical Mile Territorial Sea And The Tidelands Controversy, Jeremy D. Wiese

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

Recently, after several decades of negotiations, the United States, acting through the President, opted not to sign the United Nations Law of the Sea Treaty. In the aftermath of this decision those individuals involved with marine affairs are beginning to examine the Treaty's separate provisions to ascertain those which the U.S. may embrace under the auspices of customary international law. To date, this examination has led to a Presidential Proclamation generating an Exclusive Economic Zone for the U.S. Jurisdictionally, the next logical step would be U.S. adoption of the 12 nautical mile limit for its territorial sea. Indeed, movement in …

Llaffs - A Lightning-Locating And Fire-Forecasting System, United States Department Of Agriculture, Forest Service

Forestry

This publication contains programs and documentation to implement an algorithm for calculating lightning fire probability. This calculation is based on a model originally developed for the National Fire-Danger Rating System. The model algorithm estimates the probability that a lightning discharge from cloud to ground will ignite a fire in fuels at the ground terminus of the lightning. Probability is estimated using variables that are measures of the fuel state and type, rain, and lightning. Details of the model can be found in Fuquay and others (1979), Latham (1979), and Fuquay (1980).

Ubersicht Der Ergebnisse Der Ungarischen Zoologischen Expeditionen In Der Mongolischen Volksrepublik 1963-1968, Zoltan Kaszab

Erforschung biologischer Ressourcen der Mongolei / Exploration into the Biological Resources of Mongolia, ISSN 0440-1298

Die Fauna der Mongolischen Volksrepublik war bis zu den 60er Jahren unseres Jahrhunderts fast unbekannt geblieben. Eine Ausnahme ist die Wirbeltierfauna, welche vor allem von russischen Zoologen gründlich erforscht und deren Resultate publiziert wurden. Dagegen hatten wir von den Wirbellosen nur spärliche Angaben in der Literatur, welche teils auf der Sammeltätigkeit russischer Forscher beruhen. Von ungarischer Seite war nur eine Expedition an der Jahrhundertwende (1898) von dem Grafen Eugen ZICHY durchgeführt worden, und während der kurzen Durchreise (3. bis 15. September) in der Mongolei hat sein Begleiter E. CSIKI, damaliger Kustos der Zoologischen Abteilung des Ungarischen Nationalmuseums, ein abwechslungsreiches zoologisches …

The Utilization Of Wood As An Energy Resource In Ontario, Ronald Harvey Walder

Theses and Dissertations (Comprehensive)

The thesis provides an introductory descriptive analysis of the utilization of wood as an energy resource in Ontario from past, present, and future perspectives. Available quantitative and spatial information was compiled and evaluated for each temporal component. Due to a number of factors including local resource supply inadequacies, resource competition, and technological change, wood energy experienced a rapid decline in utilization during the late 19th century. This decline continued steadily throughout the 20th century until world energy events during the 1970’s promoted a modest resurgence. In the domestic sector “serious” users, who consume wood for the majority of their home …
