The Impact Of Rural Nebraska Industrial Development On The Migration Of Rural Youth, Armin K. Ludwig, Gene M. Hanlon, David R. Dimartino

Publications

For more than a century Americans have migrated from the rural communities in which they were raised, but by 1970 this process had begun to change. Nebraska, however, has not reflected this change, and Nebraskans have continued to leave non-metropolitan areas in large numbers. By 1976 the State stood alone among seven central and southern plains states in having non-metropolitan population losses (Miller, 1978).

A Study Of Boat Ownership In The Omaha-Council Bluffs Metropolitan Area, Paul S. T. Lee, Chen Yeshen

Publications

Continuing increases in leisure time, income, greater mobility, levels of education, and general health have whetted and nourished the American appetite for outdoor recreation activities. Statistics indicate that almost every American engages in one or more recreation activities when he or she is at all able. Measured by the number of recreation occasions, American outdoor recreation activity increased by 53 percent between 1960 and 1965. From 1965 to 1980, it will increase by another 59 percent. With more and more Americans continuing to turn to outdoor recreation activity, pressures on public and private recreation resources and facilities far exceed previous …

Keynote Speech: New Energy Concepts -- Engineering Development Challenges, Joseph M. Marchello

UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy

Bringing new energy concepts to commercialization presents formidable engineering challenges requiring considerable amounts of ingenuity and perseverance. Bolstered by the knowledge and experience gained from past accomplishments, engineers can face these challenges with the confidence and assurance that they can continue to create practical applications of science, especially in the pressing energy field.

New Trends In Building Design And Planning -- For The Age Of Energy Conservation, C. William Brubaker

UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy

In response to increasing energy costs, building design and planning are changing. Rational design can achieve many of the goals of energy conservation.

The Arizona Solar Tax Incentives Package, Donald E. Osborn

UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy

The State of Arizona has enacted into law one of the nation's most comprehensive and consumer oriented set of tax incentives to encourage the use of solar energy devices. The development of these incentives and their required regulations and guidelines are covered.

Solar Technology Inventory For The Mid-American Region, L. Icerman, S. K. Parker

UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy

A mailed questionnaire and telephone contact procedure was developed to identify solar equipment manufacturers in the Mid-American Solar Energy Center (MASEC) region and to collect information required to characterize the solar equipment manufacturing industry. Special emphasis was placed on assembling data that are useful in evaluating the commercialization status of the solar energy industry from an equipment supplier viewpoint.

The Effect Of Crude Oil Prices On The Output Composition Of Refined Petroleum Products, Angelos Pagoulatos, David L. Debertin, Emilio Pagoulatos

UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy

In this study the crude petroleum market is linked to the market of refined petroleum products through a set of technological relationships. An econometric study is used to quantify the existing relevant variables. The price equations for each refined product are used to derive estimates of elasticities with respect to quantity supplied, price of domestic crude oil and price of imports.

Electrical Energy Conversion Techniques For The Vertical Axis Wind Turbine, Curtis W. Dodd, James L. Evers
