Simulation Of The Daily Growth Of An Aspen Population From The Measured Co2-Exchange Rates Of The Components, G.C. Bate, D.T. Canvin

Aspen Bibliography

The daily total CO₂-exchange of an aspen population (32 trees) was measured using a growth chamber gas analysis system which had been shown to measure accurately the actual carbon gain of the population. The CO₂-exchange rates of the components (e.g. roots, stems, leaves) were measured in the light and dark and these rates were used to calculate the total CO₂-exchange of the population using a computer model. The carbon gain during the photoperiod was underestimated by 25% in the simulation while the carbon loss during the nyctoperiod was overestimated 100% by the simulation.

Optimizing Resistance Coefficients For Large Bed Element Streams, D. E. Overton, Harl E. Judd, C. W. Johnson

Reports

This is a report of a comparison of Darcy resistance coefficients calculafed for previously reported laboratory data and those calculated for large bed element streams. Large bed element (LBE) streams exist frequently in nature where rocks derived from valley walls or from channels cutting through ancient glacial or fluvial deposits are moved only under conditions of extreme flood. The height of bed elements is a significant part of the mean depth of flow. The stream gradients are high and are quite stable for all but the highest flows.

Stemflow In A Multi-Storied Aspen Community, J.R. Clements

Aspen Bibliography

This report presents results of a stemflow study in a 5-year-old, dense, sucker stand of largetooth aspen [Populus grandidentata Michx.]. The purposes of this study were to determine the relation of stemflow volume per tree to gross rain per storm, to determine the proportion of gross rain reaching the ground as stemflow, and to derive an equation to predict rain equivalent of stemflow from gross rain for use in other studies of water relations of this sucker stand.

Sevier River Basin Floods 1852-1967, United States Department Of Agriculture, Economic Research Service, Forest Service, Soil Conservation Service

Elusive Documents

This chronology of Sevier River Basin floods extends from 1852 to

1967. Most common and destructive are dry mantle floods, which flow as

a muddy mortar-like substance containing 40 to 55 percent water. Hundreds

of tons of protective topsoil are removed from watershed lands,

debris and boulders are picked up as the flow travels down steep stream

channel gradients, and then the flood is debouched into communities and

on to productive cropland.

Clinical, Genetic, And Biochemical Studies Of A Family With Gardner's Syndrome, Edwin W. Naylor

Biology

In 1951, Gardner (American Journal of Human Genetics, 3:167-176) reported that multiple polyposis followed a pattern of autosomal dominant inheritance in a Utah kindred, In 1952, Gardner and Plenk (American Journal of Human Genetics, 4:31-36) reported that all members of this family with polyposis also had multiple osteomas. In 1953, these same patients were found to have epidermoid cysts, fibromas, and ill-defined masses of connective tissue. In 1958, Smith (Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1: 323-332) suggested the term Gardner's syndrome to describe this spectrum of inherited pathological changes. Contact was re-established with this original kindred, and the pedigree …

A History Of The Public Library Movement In Utah, Max J. Evans

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The public library in Utah and its acceptance as a public institution is the subject of this thesis. For present purposes, public libraries will be defined as those open to all, those having general collections of books, and those which circulate their books among the public. This thesis does not treat church, school, college, industrial, medical, law, and special libraries, except as they functioned as public libraries.

Most of Utah’s earliest public libraries were operated and supported by private individuals and organizations. As private support proved insufficient, however, cities and towns began to take up this responsibility. In the year …

The Effects And Desirability Of Utilizing Dried Whey In Selected Food Products, Katherine P. Robinson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The effects and desirability of utilizing dried whey in pie crust, muffins, and beef gravies were studied using taste panel evaluations and objective testings.

In pastry the addition of whey caused significant changes. As the whey level increased to 10 percent of the flour weight, the crust became browner during baking and the shortometer recorded an increase in tenderness. The taste panel noted as whey levels increased to 10 percent and above that the color became yellow instead of creamy white; the flavor became undesirable; and pastry became less tender and flaky.

Whey significantly increased the desirability of muffins by …

A Validation Of Koppitz's Scoring Method For Children's Human Figure Drawings, William Gary Evans

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The purpose of this study was to see if the Koppitz objective scoring method for interpreting children's human figure drawings could be used as a valid assessment instrument with elementary school children. Human figure drawings were obtained from two matched groups of elementary school students, a normal and an emotionally disturbed group. The results of the comparison of human figure drawings of the two groups did not support Koppitz's findings. The Koppitz objective scoring method was found to be invalid as an assessment instrument with elementary school children and of doubtful use in diagnosing emotionally disturbed children. Possible explanations for …

Comparison Of The Effects Of 97 Per Cent And 21 Per Cent Oxygen Mixtures Upon Recovery From Treadmill Running Among Male Wrestlers At Utah State University, Michael P. Brooks

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

A comparison of the effects on recovery while breathing a 97 per cent oxygen mixture and normal compressed atmospheric air after treadmill running was determined among nine male wrestlers at Utah State University. The variables examined were heart rate and percentages of oxygen and carbon dioxide in expired air. The practice of some athletic teams of administering oxygen to participants during time out periods was the motivation for this study.

A great majority of the studies reviewed conclude that oxygen does not play a significant role in aiding recovery from physical activity.

The experiment first consisted of eight runs on …

Relationship Of The Self-Concept To Selected Measures Of Performance Among Male Navajo Students At Intermountain School, Melvern Eugene Graham

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The relationship of various measures of high school performance and a measure of the self-concept were examined for the 1970-71 senior male students at Intermountain School, Brigham City, Utah. Some significant correlations were found.

Their junior year vocational training grade and grade point average were found to be significantly correlated to their self-definition score, as ere all but one of the teachers' subjective evaluations.

General aptitude, reading ability, previous years at Intermountain, and class grouping were not found to show any significant correlation with the self-definition test score. Age was found to be correlated at the .01 level with the …

Preliminary Estimates Of Bark Percentages And Chemical Elements In Complete Trees Of Eight Species In Maine, Harold E. Young

Aspen Bibliography

Five tables were prepared to show the relative amount of bark on each of the tree components, the concentration and range of 12 chemical elements in the bark of each tree component, the proportion of each of the chemical elements in the bark of that element in the complete tree, and the proportion of each element in the bark as compared to the wood and bark of the merchantable bole. There is an overall 4:6:1 wood to bark ratio, but due to the higher concentration of the elements in the bark, the proportion of the elements in the bark is …

Marketing Strategy Study Of The Taylor Soil Moisture Tester, Allen Leron Johnsen

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

Marketing , some people say, need not be very complicated or costly. Their argument is summarized in Emerson's old adage, "If a man...makes a better mousetrap...the world will beat a path to his door." Such persons are sure that all one must do to succeed in business is to develop a good product,

The mousetrap adage may perhaps have been true when it was first expressed, but it certainly is not true today . The creation and production of a good mousetrap--or any other good product--in and of itself, is not enough to assure a man's fortune, In modern, well-developed …

A Review Of Private Fund Raising At Utah State University With Recommendations For Increased Private Financial Support, Allen Leron Johnsen

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

Higher education was hardly over a period of tremendous expansion strain following World War II When it was faced with even more critical pressure caused by an exploding population, a larger percentage of people requiring a college education, and increased demands for services and research on the part of governments and business.

It is small wonder then that funding of higher education has multiplied in scope far beyond the modest appropriations of state legislatures and equally modest philanthropic support of pre-war years. The efforts to advance the understanding and support of educational programs have created whole new administrative departments in …
