A Dynamic Impact Model Of Regional Income : A Reduced Form Approach, Cameron S. Thraen Jan 1974

A Dynamic Impact Model Of Regional Income : A Reduced Form Approach, Cameron S. Thraen

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In a time of increased awareness of regional and community repercussions of socio-economic and political decisions which often originate outside of the region or community, there is a strong need for the development of a theoretically acceptable, and statistically applicable method, by which the impact of these various decisions upon the regional economy can be delineated. A priori knowledge, based upon an abstract theoretical model is not sufficient. The ramifications of decisions which affect the income producing sectors of a regional economy are not contained within a vacuum. It is paramount that the regional impacts of such decisions be estimated …


An Analysis Of The Earnings-Price Index As An Investment Tool, Raymond J. Wood Jan 1974

An Analysis Of The Earnings-Price Index As An Investment Tool, Raymond J. Wood

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

An investor maintains a portfolio containing various quantities of such items as money, bonds, securities, or other physical goods which comprise his wealth. Assuming that the investor attempts to maximize his wealth subject to his preferences toward risk, then the investor must make a change in his portfolio to maintain equilibrium if there is a change in the condition affecting either risk, appreciation, rate of return or any of the assets in his portfolio. As a result, the rates of return of the various forms of wealth become very important, i.e., the expected rate of return on bonds vis-a-vis the …

Criteria For Recreation Site Selection On Flood Control Reservoirs-Case Studies, Kenneth B. Mclaughlin May 1973

Criteria For Recreation Site Selection On Flood Control Reservoirs-Case Studies, Kenneth B. Mclaughlin

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Stephen F. Austin State University was awarded a contract in August 1971 to select the 1,200 acres best suited for recreation area development on three proposed flood control reservoirs. At that time, there was no central publication which could be used as a guide for such a project. This thesis was written to help correct this situation. The nine factors that were used in initial site selection are soils, topography, access, wind, vegetation, land ownership, distribution of the sites, bridges and open-water and cove locations. Once the sites were selected, they were evaluated and assigned priorities for development according to …


Seasonal Movements And Habitat Selection Of Pheasant Cocks In South Dakota, Robert A. Fedeler Jan 1973

Seasonal Movements And Habitat Selection Of Pheasant Cocks In South Dakota, Robert A. Fedeler

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Data were gathered on seasonal movements and habitat selection of 30 pheasant (Phasianus colchicus) cocks that were radio-equipped in eastern South Dakota from 1970 to 1972. Pheasant cocks stayed in an area of less than 100 acres from spring through hunting season. In winter, cocks used even smaller areas more intensively. Cocks moved about their home range by shifting their activity center rather than by adjustment in range of daily travel. Adult cocks seemed to have strong site attachments on a year-round basis. Immature cocks were more mobile, especially during the fall prior to hunting season. In spring, adult cocks …


Evaluation Of Cattle Use Of A Deer Winter Range In The Black Hills, David C. Hamm Jan 1973

Evaluation Of Cattle Use Of A Deer Winter Range In The Black Hills, David C. Hamm

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Cattle use of a deer winter range in the Black Hills was investigated during the summer grazing seasons of 1971-1972. A U.S. Forest Service grazing allotment situated between Mystic and Redfern, South Dakota, was used as the study area. The allotment was divided into five grazing units or pastures managed collectively under a “rest-rotation” system of grazing. Three study sites were selected in each unit of the allotment, and 75 exclosures were erected on each site; a paired-plot method was used to collect data. Indices to use of sites by deer and cattle were obtained by counts of deer pellet …

Chemical Survey Of Selected South Dakota Lake Sediments, Alan Ross Swanson Jan 1973

Chemical Survey Of Selected South Dakota Lake Sediments, Alan Ross Swanson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Available phosphorus, organic carbon, and organic nitrogen were measured in bottom sediments of 16 lakes and ponds in northeast South Dakota. These lakes were glaciated, relatively shallow, and productive. Ranges of the surface sediments were: available phosphorus, 2 to 42 ppm; organic carbon, 0.94 to 5.34 percent; and organic nitrogen, 0.29 to 0.79 percent. Ranges of subsurface sediments were: available phosphorus, 2 to 39 ppm; organic carbon, 0.54 to 6.06 percent; organic nitrogen, 0.19 to 0.88 percent. Concentrations in most lakes varied little from top to bottom. Hard-bottomed lakes generally decreased in nutrient concentrations from sediment surface of subsurface. Lower …


Origin And Transport Of Nutrients In The Upper Big Sioux River, South Dakota, Charles William Thompson Jan 1973

Origin And Transport Of Nutrients In The Upper Big Sioux River, South Dakota, Charles William Thompson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The upper Big Sioux River Basin, in northeastern South Dakota, was studied to determine the origin and transport of nutrients in the Big Sioux River. The area was divided into three segments. Two of the segments, the Big Sioux River and Willow Creek Basins, were primarily agricultural drainage areas, and one segment was the city of Watertown. Sampling stations were selected to facilitate the determination of nutrient inputs to the river from each of these segments and to determine the nutrient load in the river leaving the study area. Nutrients studied included total orthophosphate and the particulate and dissolved fractions …

The Primary Structure Of Nifungin, Marvin Lee Withrow Jan 1973

The Primary Structure Of Nifungin, Marvin Lee Withrow

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The primary structure of the antifungal peptide nifungin was studied. Amino acid analysis of nifungin before and after performic acid oxidation revealed 51 amino acids and the presence of an unidentified ninhydrin positive material. The unidentified material constituted approximately ten per cent of nifungin by weight. It contains nitrogen but, as reported by others (2), did not contain phosphate or reducing sugars. It was not hydrolyzed into smaller compounds by strong mineral acids. Carboxyl terminal analysis was conducted utilizing carboxy-peptidase A and B on both the oxidized and unoxidized nifungin. Tyrosine appeared to be released most rapidly followed by lysine, …


The Unsteady Circulation Distribution In Rotors And Its Application To Noise Studies, Assem A. Fathy Jan 1973

The Unsteady Circulation Distribution In Rotors And Its Application To Noise Studies, Assem A. Fathy

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A new method for the calculation of the unsteady circulation distribution in axial flow compressors was developed. The classical assumption of representing the rotor by a two-dimensional infinite cascade was eliminated. Instead the more realistic case of a radial cascade with blades of finite length was studied. The blades were assumed to be thin and only slightly cambered. The flow was assumed ·to be incompressible and inviscid and the secondary flow effects were neglected. The velocity induced at an arbitrary point of a reference blade due to the bound vortices on the blade under consideration and the other blades and …
