Solubility Product Constants Of The Metallic Sulfides, Marvin Bernard Gordon Aug 1951

Solubility Product Constants Of The Metallic Sulfides, Marvin Bernard Gordon

Theses and Dissertations

A survey of the chemical literature revealed a lack of agreement in the values reported by various investigators for the solubility product constants of the metallic sulfides. The object of this thesis was to obtain a reliable set of solubility product constant values for the metallic sulfides by means of thermodynamic calculations. Of considerable importance in calculating the values of the solubility product constants of the metallic sulfides is the value of the standard free energy of formation of the sulfide ion. A critical review of the values that have been reported by various investigators for this constant , including …


Some Studies On The Consortes Of The Norway Rat In Utah County, Utah, Roy J. Myklebust Aug 1951

Some Studies On The Consortes Of The Norway Rat In Utah County, Utah, Roy J. Myklebust

Theses and Dissertations

This study of the Norway rat, Rattus norvegicus (Erxleben) and its consortes was undertaken in Utah County to determine : (1} the frequency of infection of Trichinella spiralis (Owen) Railliet, the causative organism of trichinosis in humans, (2) the populations of fleas, lice and mites on the rat, and (3) the occurence of other consortes. This study covered a period from January 1951 through June, 1951. Additional records were made available from studies being made by the Department of Zoology and Entomology, Brigham Young University on parasitic arthropods (listed as Project Ten). The species ot fleas, and those mites which …


A Taxonomic Study Of The Catostomidae Of Utah Lake With Notes On The Fish Population, Lyle Junior Lowder Jun 1951

A Taxonomic Study Of The Catostomidae Of Utah Lake With Notes On The Fish Population, Lyle Junior Lowder

Theses and Dissertations

During the period from October 1950 to March 1951 a study of the taxonomy of the Catostomidae of Utah Lake was undertaken. Throughout this study information was collected on the numbers of suckers taken by some of the fisherman. From the data gathered it appears that the three species of Catostomidae cringinally named from Utah Lake are still there. The external morphological features of these fish are not recognizable unless they are observed very carefully. The most outstanding external characteristics used to differentiate the species are the mouth, lips, papillae on the lips and the general shape of the head. …


Galls And Gall Insects Of Artemisia Tridentata Nutt, Solomon Lander Jun 1951

Galls And Gall Insects Of Artemisia Tridentata Nutt, Solomon Lander

Theses and Dissertations

Galls of Artemisia tridentata Nutt. of Utah County were collected and described in detail. Of the ten galls collected, seven were caused by members of the Itonididae, two by members of the Trypetidae, and one by a member of the Curculionidae. Of the seven Itonid galls, six were caused by species of Diarthronomyia, and one by a species of Rhopalomyia. Two of the galls were caused by new species of Diarthronomyia. Three genera of the Scelionidae (Hymenoptera) and four genera of the Chalcidoidea (Hymenoptera) were also reared from the galls. A key to the ten galls was constructed, but does …


Ecology Of Passerine Birds Wintering At Utah Lake, Joseph R. Murphy Jun 1951

Ecology Of Passerine Birds Wintering At Utah Lake, Joseph R. Murphy

Theses and Dissertations

During the period of October to April of the winter of 1950-51, an ecological study was undertaken of a population or passerine birds wintering in a segment of the Utah Lake Shore. Available winter weather data indicated that although such factors as precipitation, temperature, and wind may often be severe, they are not critical enough to prevent a fairly large population of passerine birds from spending the winter months in the study locale. Five fairly distinct plant communities can be recognized in the area. There is evidence which indicates that certain passerine bird species are especially dependent on a particular …


An Ecological Study Of A Sphagnum Lake In The Subalpine Forest Of The Uinta Mountains Of Utah, Howard C. Stutz Jun 1951

An Ecological Study Of A Sphagnum Lake In The Subalpine Forest Of The Uinta Mountains Of Utah, Howard C. Stutz

Theses and Dissertations

A study was made of the ecology and floristics of a small bog lake referred to as Moss Lake, in the Grandaddy lakes region of the Uinta Mountains , Utah . Three consecutive summers, 1948, 1949, and 1950, were spent in collecting the data presented in this study. Throughout the study the following ecological measurements were made: 1. Water 2. Soil 3. Macroscopic vegetation 4. Plankton 5. Macroscopic animal forms.


A Preliminary Study Of The Distribution Of Fleas In Utah Known To Be Capable And Potential Vectors Of Plague, Dorald M. Allred Jun 1951

A Preliminary Study Of The Distribution Of Fleas In Utah Known To Be Capable And Potential Vectors Of Plague, Dorald M. Allred

Theses and Dissertations

Plague outbreaks in the past have been disastrous where domestic rats and their fleas of certain species were common. Plague has been known to occur in most parts of the world (Robertson 1923), and has occurred as human epidemics for many centuries (Dubos 1948).


A Taxonomic And Distributional Study Of The Subspecies Of The Iguanid Lizard Uta Stansburiana In The Eastern Great Basin 1950-1951, Dale D. Parker May 1951

A Taxonomic And Distributional Study Of The Subspecies Of The Iguanid Lizard Uta Stansburiana In The Eastern Great Basin 1950-1951, Dale D. Parker

Theses and Dissertations

This study is concerned with a critical analysis of species and subspecies of Uta stansburiana as it occurs in the Eastern Great Basin. In this study Urosaurus ornatus wrighti is also briefly discussed since it was until recently considered a member of the genus Uta and since it extends in the area which has been dealt with in this thesis. This problem necessitated study of large series of lizards in order to work out subspeciation. The material from the Brigham Young University collection and the specimens collected by the author total 520. After recording dorsal scale counts, prefrontal scales, keelation …


Alpine Plant Succession Near Mount Emmons, Uinta Mountains, Utah, Joseph R. Murdock May 1951

Alpine Plant Succession Near Mount Emmons, Uinta Mountains, Utah, Joseph R. Murdock

Theses and Dissertations

It was to provide some detailed information about the alpine flora , particularly as it relates to successional aspects , that the present study was undertaken . The environmental conditions of weather and soil , as they effect floral composition , are important factors in the plant succession or alpine communities . The investigation was designed to uncover such information about the alpine flora and environment necessary to establish the pattern of succession .


The Female Genitalia And Spermathecae Of Some Of The Rhynchophora, Herman O. Sanders Mar 1951

The Female Genitalia And Spermathecae Of Some Of The Rhynchophora, Herman O. Sanders

Theses and Dissertations

In this study of the genitalia and spermathecae of the Rhynohophora, eighty-two species, representing sixty genera, were examined as listed in Leng's Catalogue of Coleoptera of North America North of Mexico, together with seven species from the Phillippine Islands and one from China. By using the external female genitalia and spermathecae the Rhynochophora studied may be divided into eight and possibly nine well-defined groups. They are separated into these groups on the basis of the development of the nodulus and ramus and upon the degree of crenulation that occurs in the spermatheca. The spermatheca of all species studied has been …


A Brief History Of Piute County And Its Educational Development, Wilford Meeks Halladay Jan 1951

A Brief History Of Piute County And Its Educational Development, Wilford Meeks Halladay

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of the study was to secure the history while some of the pioneers who made it were still alive, and to help future generations appreciate more fully what has been done; to preserve the history of the educational development, and to compile it In one volume so that it will be more readily obtainable.

The problem was to trace the early history of Piute County along with the early settlement, growth and development of each town and the development of the educational aspects within each community and the county in general.
