Measurement Of Irrigation Water, Eldon M. Stock

Reports

Foreword: Although irrigation has been practiced in Utah for more than one hundred years, irrigation water still is being distributed to farmers with little or not thought about its measurement. A farmer would not think of buying or selling other farm commodities, such as hay, grain, beef cattle, or dairy products, without weighing or accurately measuring them, but at the same time he is often content to accept and pay for the irrigation water received with little or no knowledge as to the actual amount received, or whether or not he is receiving the amount he is entitled to. Measurement …

Stream Piracy And Glacial Diversion Of Little Missouri River, North Dakota, Emmett R. Schmitz

Theses and Dissertations

Bedrock river terraces, as much as 275 to 500 feet above the present Little Missouri, are remnants of a former floodplain. The presence of these former shallow valley floor (Little Missouri Terrace No. 4) along the pre-glacial channel and east and north of the Killdeer Mountains suggests several pre-glacial rivers.

Peripheral precipitation in advance of the Kansan-Illinoian glacier, head-ward erosion with consequent new gradient breached the divide between the pre-glacial Little Missouri River and the “Medicine Stone” River, (herein named, after a local landmark), which flowed eastward into pre-glacial Missouri River.

The history of that portion of the Little Missouri …

Why Doesn't Such-And-Such A Game Bird Do Well In Nebraska?, Levi Mohler

Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: White Papers, Conference Presentations, and Manuscripts

Why doesn't such-and-such game bird do well in Nebraska? This is a question which is often asked field workers for the game department. The answer to such an inquiry varies with the bird in question, but in general the following applies: Since climate, topography, and natural foods vary so much from place to place, and since most individual species are not highly adaptable, nature has through the centuries evolved many species, or kinds, of birds, each species adapted to meet certain conditions. Some of these have extensive ranges; others are limited in their distribution. The conditions suited to one species …

Federal Aid In Wildlife Restoration, Ronald A. Ryder

Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: White Papers, Conference Presentations, and Manuscripts

This report represents a compilation, analysis and summarization of data collected on the South Platte Management Area and deals primarily with game bird data collected by personnel of Project W-37-R. History, general description, and methods of operation are discussed, and recommendations for future operations given.

Briefly, the South Platte Management Area is located in Logan and Sedgwick counties, comprising over 11, 400 acres of state-owned land in four separate segments. The largest segment (more than 12,000 acres of deeded and leased land) lies along the South Platte River from Proctor to Red Lion. This, and a second area of 240 …

Spring Prairie Grouse Census - 1955, Reuel Janson

Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: White Papers, Conference Presentations, and Manuscripts

The 1955 spring prairie grouse census was conducted during the period March 30 to May 4. Census data were obtained by means of a survey of dancing and booming grounds on 18 automobile transects.

An average population density of 4.77 sharptailed grouse, and 0.71 prairie chickens per square mile was found. Comparable data for 1954 and 1955 indicate a 10 percent decline in the combined prairie and grouse population. The prairie chicken population declined considerably more than the sharptail population.

The extreme northern portion of the grouse range, Corson and Perkins Counties, experienced population gains of approximately 50 percent which …

Correlation Functions For Use In Small Angle X-Ray Scattering, James Edwin Thomas Jr.

Masters Theses

"Thus, the determination of the structure of the material, and obtaining a distribution function which will enable the theoretical scattering to be predicted is the major problem.

In this work the diffraction material shall be considered to contain scattering regions of identical geometrical forms at such a distance from one another that they will essentially scatter the incident beam independently of their closest neighbor. An effort will be made to determine a correlation function characteristic of these forms, which may be interpreted as a distribution function, that might allow the low angle scattering pattern to be predicted. This correlation function …

"Morphological studies of the following species are the basis for a partial revision of the Family Anomalinadae: Anomalina acuta Plummer, A. midwayensis (Plummer), A. pseudopapillosa Carsey, A. vulgaris (Plummer), Anomalinoides pinguis (Jennings), Cibicides alleni (Plummer), C. beaumontianus (d’Orbigny), c. harperi (Sandidge), Cibicidina danvillensis (Howe and Wallace), Planulina correcta (Carsey), and P. dumblei (Applin); a description of Stensioina americana Cushman and Dorsey, discorbid foraminifer, is included for comparison. The classificatory position and incomplete content of the family are: Superfamily Discorbidea; Family Anomalinidae; Subfamily Anomalininae (revised) -- with ventral supplementary apertures: Anomalina , Planulina ; Subfamily Cibicidinae -- with dorsal supplementary apertures: …
