The Chicago Method Of Excavation At Kincaid, Jessica Ruth Howe Dec 2011

The Chicago Method Of Excavation At Kincaid, Jessica Ruth Howe

Theses

The creation of the University of Chicago archaeological field schools in 1934 at the Kincaid site in southern Illinois resulted in the dissemination of a standard excavation method, often referred to as the "Chicago Method", across the United States, primarily in the East. Before the field schools, there was no standard practice for excavating Eastern archaeological sites and little was written about the excavation methods that were used. During and after the field schools, archaeologists began to use similar excavation methods and also began to keep better records of their fieldwork. This thesis determines exactly what the "Chicago Method" of …

An Assessment Of Cwa Section 303(D) Prioritization Of Impaired Water Bodies In Illinois, Daniel Jablonski Aug 2011

An Assessment Of Cwa Section 303(D) Prioritization Of Impaired Water Bodies In Illinois, Daniel Jablonski

Theses

Water quality has been an issue of concern since the settlement of man and continues to be of great concern today in many locations around the world. In the United States, to address the issues of water pollution, the U.S. Congress passed the Clean Water Act (CWA) in 1972. This study examines the implementation and prioritization of impaired water bodies listed on the Illinois CWA section 303(d) list between 1992 and 2004. This study used the Delphi survey method to obtain opinions from water quality/management experts that reside in the state of Illinois. The goal of this study was to …

The Rise Of The European Corporate Elite: Evidence From The Network Of Interlocking Directorates In 2005 And 2010, Eelke M. Heemskerk Jul 2011

The Rise Of The European Corporate Elite: Evidence From The Network Of Interlocking Directorates In 2005 And 2010, Eelke M. Heemskerk

2011

Studies of national networks of interlocking directorates across the globe reveal that since their heydays in the early 1970s, such corporate networks are in decline. During the past decade, there are indications that the cohesion between European corporate boards is actually increasing. However, the financial crisis might have well put a halt to the emerging European corporate network of board interlocks. The return of the nation state in the economic arena in response to the financial and economic crisis might have encouraged European big business to orient themselves towards the national community. Therefore this paper investigates the social organisation of …

Climate Change And Water Resources: The Role Of Risk Management Methods, David C. Major Jul 2011

Climate Change And Water Resources: The Role Of Risk Management Methods, David C. Major

Journal of Contemporary Water Research and Education

Risk management methods in water resources in the
United States and elsewhere have been applied within the
context of highly developed sets of planning criteria. In
considering these methods, many of which are listed here,
it is helpful to distinguish between the use of these
techniques to assess risk and to manage risk. While the
use of risk assessment and management methods for
water resources planning varies widely among agencies,
the robustness and resiliency of existing methods for risk
management in water planning have the potential to serve
effectively as the basis for adapting to changes in the
supply and …

Principles And Concepts For Water Resources Planning Under Climate Uncertainty, Kenneth D. Frederick Jul 2011

Principles And Concepts For Water Resources Planning Under Climate Uncertainty, Kenneth D. Frederick

Journal of Contemporary Water Research and Education

Possible impacts of a greenhouse warming include
changes in precipitation and runoff patterns, sea level
rise, land use and population shifts that may follow from
these effects, and increased demand for irrigation water
in regions with higher temperatures and reduced
precipitation. Introducing climate change into the
planning process involves a sequence of models and
techniques that result in a cascade of uncertainties.
Although climate change is not explicitly cited as an
issue in the Principles and Guidelines (US Water
Resources Council, 1983) used by designated federal
water resources agencies, their planning and evaluation
principles and methods are flexible enough to …

Online Communities: Influence On Members Brand Loyalty And Purchase Intent, Brian J. Wilimzig Jul 2011

Online Communities: Influence On Members Brand Loyalty And Purchase Intent, Brian J. Wilimzig

Research Papers

With the emergence of new media technologies it is becoming easier for brands to interact and engage with consumers in an attempt to build brand loyalty. One trend gaining popularity is the use of online branded communities, purpose-built social networks with focus (direct or indirect) on a brand. Branded communities tend to give more specific value to the brand owner and the members, allowing for greater communication and collaboration around the brand. Using the uses and gratification as a theoretical framework this study set out to explore the influence online brand communities have on members brand loyalty and intent to …
