The Challenge Of A Desert: Revegetation Of Disturbed Desert Lands, A. Wallace, E. M. Romney, R. B. Hunter Oct 1980

The Challenge Of A Desert: Revegetation Of Disturbed Desert Lands, A. Wallace, E. M. Romney, R. B. Hunter

Great Basin Naturalist Memoirs

The revegetation of disturbed, arid lands is one of the great challenges of a desert. An attempt to encourage it is not an impossible task, however, if the natural and the man-made resources available are utilized and managed. Where rainfall and temperature conditions approach or exceed those of the Great Basin desert, restoration of disturbed land will occur through natural revegetation processes within a reasonable period of time. This is not generally the case in the more arid Mojave Desert areas where the moisture and temperature conditions are less favorable for germination and seedling survival. Restoration of vegetation by natural …

Urs Schwarz, The Eye Of The Hurricane: Switzerland In World War Two, Heinz K. Meier Oct 1980

Urs Schwarz, The Eye Of The Hurricane: Switzerland In World War Two, Heinz K. Meier

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

"Switzerland in World War II" has become a favorite object of investigation and subject of treatment by Swiss journalists, publicists, political scientists and historians. The flood of articles and monographs on every conceivable aspect of that topic has become so overwhelming as to make it almost impossible for one person to keep track of it, let alone read and digest it. And yet, according to Urs Schwarz, ther is a gap in this outpouring of hsitorical literature: There are no English language accounts on the role of neutral Switzerland in World War II. His Book The eye of the Hurricane …


Jacob Burckhardt, The Historian, As Analyst Of His Age, Walter L. Mullen Oct 1980

Jacob Burckhardt, The Historian, As Analyst Of His Age, Walter L. Mullen

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

Often the historian is faced with the question of how the study of the past relates to the present. Even when Leopold von Ranke's admonition is followed, and we try to tell history "as it essentially was" and eliminate subjectivity, purely personal opinions are difficult to keep out of formal academic work. Even when objectivity is attempted, the historian will have personal convictions about the object of his study in relation to his own existence.


A Comparison Of Epiphytic Diatom Assemblages On Living And Dead Stems Of The Common Grass Phragmites Australis, Judith A. Grimes, Larry L. St. Clair, Samuel R. Rushforth Sep 1980

A Comparison Of Epiphytic Diatom Assemblages On Living And Dead Stems Of The Common Grass Phragmites Australis, Judith A. Grimes, Larry L. St. Clair, Samuel R. Rushforth

Great Basin Naturalist

Diatoms epiphytic on Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steaded stems were collected from a single clone at the southern end of Provo Bay, Utah Lake, Utah. Diatom populations from both living and dead stem sections were analyzed. Species diversity in each sample was high, indicating that the stems provide a relatively stable habitat for diatom epiphytes. Of the 23 genera found, only Gomphonema and Navicula showed significant trends toward stem preference. The diatoms in this study support the current view that Utah Lake is a slightly saline, eutrophic system.

Printed Maps Of Utah To 1900: An Annotated Cartobibliography, Riley Moore Moffat Aug 1980

Printed Maps Of Utah To 1900: An Annotated Cartobibliography, Riley Moore Moffat

Theses and Dissertations

Old maps are valuable research tools in many fields. Finding and identifying them, however, is often difficult. This annotated cartobibliography attempts to identify all maps of Utah printed before 1900. Entries give the distinguishing features, peculiarities, inaccuracies, and a general description as well as the map's provenance and citations in other lists and bibliographies.

The maps are listed chronologically and include all maps located in research collections in Utah, and in the catalogs of the Library of Congress and the Bancroft Library. Although the first entry is dated 1777, the first map of Utah made from actual observation, earlier maps …

Swiss Food And Foodways In Early Pennsylvania, William Woys Weaver Jun 1980

Swiss Food And Foodways In Early Pennsylvania, William Woys Weaver

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

When the immigrants from Basel composed this song about corning to Pennsylvania in 1803, I do not think they realized --in spite of their enthusiasrn--what a very strange mixture of things they would find there a century and a half ago. Certainly, this was a major area of Swiss settlernent and in spite of the pressures of acculturation, there were many foods that the 1803 settlers would recognize from their homeland.
