Bibliography Of The University Of Nebraska Studies, Marilyn Irene Planer

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

In this the Centennial Year of the University of Nebraska, it seems appropriate to present a bibliography of the University's Studies series, which was initiated in 1888. Works issued from that date through 1941 comprised the "Old Series"; they were identified by volume and number and by month and year of publication.

publication. Eighteen Studies in Language, Literature and Criticism were printed between 1917 and 1940, four Studies in the Humanities between 1941 and 1945, and two Studies in Science and Technology in 1941 and 1942. The "New Series," which began in 1946, continues to this day on an irregular …

Productivity And The Morphology Of Crop Stands: Patterns With Leaves, R. S. Loomis, W. A. Williams

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

The primary productivity of communities made up of autotrophic green plants I initially dependent upon photosynthesis. The patterns of chlorophyll display at each level of community organization revel features which can be related to light interception and photosynthetic activity, and hence, to production. Studies on the comparative morphology of such displays should reveal principles useful for designing more efficient crops. It is important that we identify these principles since existing patterns are not necessarily the most efficient for intensive agriculture – a consequence of natural selection, even under a strong influence of man, having occurred principally in poverty environments and …

Managerial Analysis Of Doctoral Candidates And Professors: Research Attitudes And Interpersonal Relations, Fred Luthans, Richard M. Hodgetts

Department of Management: Faculty Publications

The authors feel that managerial analysis can contribute to the better understanding of many problems facing the modern university. This study, in analyzing the staffing problems of colleges of business administration, utilizes the research attitudes and interpersonal relations between doctoral candidates and their professors. The body of management knowledge is usually associated with business organizations. However, many other types of organizations in modern society have utilized management knowledge to solve their problems. Government organizations, hospitals, and the military draw from and add to the general body of management knowledge.

Gaseous Exchange In Crop Stands, Edgar Lemon

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Man through the ages has evolved a strategy, albeit empirical, of manipulating the environment and the plant to his advantage. Practices such as fertilizing the soil, irrigation, weed control, and plant breeding and selection are common. Nonetheless, concentrated and coordinated efforts to understand the mechanisms controlling the whole soil-plant- atmosphere continuum is a new approach to finding new ways to favorably manipulate the whole system as well as predict response.
Conceptually and experimentally it has proven advantageous to view the total system in terms of energy, momentum, and mass exchange. This makes sense because in the first instance the foundations …

Physiological Responses To Nitrogen In Plants, Yoshio Murata

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Recent advances in crop physiology have given us some clues for analysis of the complex relationships of environmental factors, cultural conditions and genetic factors to crop yield. However, in order to accomplish this analysis, it is quite necessary to have concrete knowledge about the causal relationships and the time sequence of the processes of yield-formation.
In grain crops, the process of yield-formation may be divided into the following three phases:
1) Formation of organs for nutrient absorption and photosynthesis,
2) Formation of flower organs and "yield-container," and
3) Production, accumulation and translocation of "yield-contents."
The effect of nitrogen, which has …

Interrelationships Among Photosynthesis, Respiration, And Movement Of Carbon In Developing Crops, Volkmar Stoy

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

From the preceding lectures we have learned a great deal about how external conditions may influence various internal physiological processes within plants, and it therefore appears appropriate to consider briefly how these processes influence one another and also the manner in which they relate to yield. The main processes of interest in this connection are photosynthesis, respiration, and carbon assimilate translocation; but aspects of growth, development, mineral nutrition, etc., will also be considered when relevant.

Review De Novo In Alimony And Property Settlement: Is It Desirable?, William L. Mccown

Nebraska Law Review

This Comment attempts to analyze the practical effects of review de novo in one category of divorce cases: those involving alimony and property settlement. To accomplish this task, it is necessary to examine Nebraska's substantive rules for determining alimony and rendering property settlements, which is followed by an exploration of the historical basis for review de novo, with particular attention to its development in Nebraska. There is then an analysis of review de novo in alimony and property settlement cases, and some of the issues are discussed. Finally, some procedural recommendations are posited with the goal of improving appellate review …

A Population Analysis Of Juniperus In The Missouri River Basin: Taxonomic Interrelationships Between Juniperus Scopulorum Sarg. And J. Virginiana L. In Missouri River Basin, David F. Van Haverbeke

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

Juniper has been used since early pioneer days in the protective tree plantings established on the windswept Great Plains. More recently juniper has been used as a basic component of the shelter belt plantings which, by the thousands, dot the prairies of the Great Plains from Texas to Canada. Research to improve the quality of Plains tree planting materials, including Juniperus) is proposed or is now in progress.

In the fall of 1965, 72 native stands of Juniperus were sampled throughout the Missouri River Basin-an area encompassing most of the Central and Northern Great Plains. The purpose was to determine …

Basic Statement On Migratory Bird Treaty, E. M. Bosak

Bird Control Seminars Proceedings

My portion of the program is the basic statement on the Migratory Bird Treaty Act regulations. Basically, laws are designed to control the actions of human beings. J. Edgar Hoover recently stated, "Man cannot live in our complex society today without a system of laws. The social system is doomed unless the laws are enforced, and the enforcement officer is ineffective unless his efforts to maintain the peace and protect life and property are supported by the government and the people." Therefore, it behooves each one of us to be aware of those laws that affect us in our everyday …

4th Bird Control Seminar -- Introductory Comments, William B. Jackson

Bird Control Seminars Proceedings

My travels the last few years have permitted me to see some aspects of bird management practices in both Asia and Europe. I must confess that had I not seen the Tori gates of Japan or the cathedral spires in Europe, I might well have thought I was in Ohio. Scarecrows were often seen. Fields were adorned with glittering strips of metal or blowing streamers of paper. In Scotland, red balloons flew over a turnip field. The sound of acetylene exploders sometimes fractured the tranquil countryside. While I saw many essentially useless devices for keeping birds out of man's agricultural …

Birds, Encephalitis, And Ectoparasites, Margaret A. Parsons

Bird Control Seminars Proceedings

Encephalitis or "inflammation of the brain" is a general term applied to a disorder which may have many causes. Usually this disorder is caused by a virus but it may also be produced by other types of micro-organisms. Encephalitis may also occur after an initial infection with mumps, measles and other childhood diseases, or following a vaccination, or as a result of a non-infectious process such as poisoning. Since encephalitis affects the brain, which in turn controls all body functions, encephalitis from any cause can show symptoms of general illness throughout the body such as headache, nausea and vomiting, fever, …

Orchard Bird Control With Decoy Traps, Bill Shake

crops. With one method, we tried to see if we could reduce redwinged blackbird damage to corn. We put up the larger traps-25 x 50 or 50 x 100 feet-near corn fields that were being heavily hit or next to marshes where birds are roosting. Although we captured thousands of birds and destroyed them, we were working with such large numbers of birds that we found it was actually like pouring sand effect at all in reducing damage to corn. Also it's not an efficient method in this type of a situation; it takes a lot of time to tend …

Infrared Absorption Properties Of Lih, Lid Mixed Crystals, Sitaram S. Jaswal, John R. Hardy

John R. Hardy Papers

The normal modes of pure LiH and LiD, required in impurity mode calculations, have been computed on the basis of the deformation-dipole model. Neutron-scattering results of Verble, Warren, and Yarnell for Li⁷D, along with some other experimental quantities, have been used to determine the various parameters involved. It is found that the frequency spectrum of LiH has a gap and that a substitutional D^- ion produces a local mode in this gap whose frequency has been computed, together with its amplitude at the impurity. The infrared absorption frequency associated with this local mode and its integrated absorption …

The Fable And The Fabulous: The Use Of Traditional Forms In Children's Literature, Ned Samuel Hedges

Department of English: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

Because children’s literature is considered to be a development of the past two centuries, it is generally believed that there are differences between children's literature and adult literature. The majority of people who have written extensively about children's literature have been primarily concerned with those differences. I too believe that there are differences between children's literature and adult literature; but those differences seem to me to be neither as extensive nor as significant as has been commonly assumed. What are the differences? Can they be described? Are there also significant similarities between children's literature and adult literature?

I believe that …

The Fable And The Fabulous: The Use Of Traditional Forms In Children's Literature, Ned Samuel Hedges

Department of English: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

I believe that there are features common to both children is and adult literature, and that those similarities are much more important to a proper understanding of children's literature than are the differences that exist. This study. will carry the burden of proof for that belief. If goad children's literature is susceptible to serious interpretive criticism, and I believe that it is, it is so primarily because of what it contains in common with general. literary tradition rather than because of what it contains different from general. literary tradition. The complexity of the children's books that I will analyze in …

A Rhetorical Analysis Of Political And Legal Speeches Of Robert B. Crosby, Gilbert Frank Nykodym Ii

Department of Communication Studies: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

I first saw Robert Crosby as a lawyer defending Duane Pope in November 1965. I was intensely interested in the Pope trial for a number of reasons. I was interested because, first, as a law student I found the legal points of interest, second, one of my law professors, Wallace Rudolph, was serving as an assistant defense counsel in the trial and, third, having a bachelors degree in speech I wanted to see what part speaking played in this trial.

As I began graduate work in speech I took a course entitled Rhetorical Criticism under Dr. Donald O. Olson. I …

Can The Superior Learnability Of Meaningful And Pleasant Words Be Transferred To Nonsense Syllables?*, Albert Silverstein, Richard A. Dienstbier

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

The Ss in 2 experiments first learned a PA list of words as responses to nonsense syllables. In 1 condition the words differed in meaningfulness (M) and in the other condition the words differed in pleasantness (PL). Next, Ss learned a 2nd PA list of the same syllables as responses to numbers. High-M words were learned faster than low-M words, but did not transfer either this difference in learning or the difference in rated M to the syllables. Pleasant words were learned faster than indifferent words in one experiment (men’s) but not in the other (women’s). In neither experiment did …
