Ecology Of The Pika (Ochotona Princeps Uinta) In The Uinta Mountains, Utah, Richard D. Bates
Theses and Dissertations
In North America, pikas (mammal genus Ochotona) are distributed throughout the western mountain ranges where they are mostly restricted to higher elevation talus slides. There are two species in North America, the Alaskan or Collared Pika (Ochotona collaris Nelson) and the American Pika (Ochotona princeps Richardson). The former is found north of 58 degrees north latitude and has no subspeciation, while the latter occurs south of 58 degrees latitude and consists of 35 subspecies isolated on various mountain ranges (Hall and Kelson 1959). In Utah there are nine subspecies, which are mostly distributed in the Wasatch range that runs northeast …

A Study Of Turbulent Heat Transfer From A Flat Plate With Transverse Temperature Variations, John C. W. Kwan
A Study Of Turbulent Heat Transfer From A Flat Plate With Transverse Temperature Variations, John C. W. Kwan
Theses and Dissertations
Heat transfer in turbulent flow from external surfaces has been investigated extensively in the past. Most of the theoretical and experimental work deals with a two dimensional boundary layer on isothermal or uniform heat flux surfaces with longitudinal temperature variation. However, little attention has ever been paid to the case in which the temperature of the plate varies transversely. This is a three dimensional problem due to the spanwise variation of the thermal boundary layer. The most elementary example of this is the boundary formed by the sudden temperature impulse that acts transversely across a flat plate as shown in …
The Panama Canal Tolls Question In The Upper-Midwestern Press, Grant K. Anderson
The Panama Canal Tolls Question In The Upper-Midwestern Press, Grant K. Anderson
Theses and Dissertations
In 1912, the United States Congress passed a measure which granted free use of the Panama Canal to ships engaged in the coastwise shipping of the United States. Although Great Britain protested that the measure was a violation of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty of 1901, President Taft signed the bill into law. Two years later, newly elected President Woodrow Wilson appeared before a joint session of Congress and requested repeal of the disputed clause. Several months later, Congress concurred in this point of view and repealed the exemption clause. The question arises: What was the reaction of the upper midwest to …

George Romney In 1968, From Front-Runner To Drop-Out, An Analysis Of Cause, Richard M. Eyre
Theses and Dissertations
The meteoric political decline of George Romney is unparalleled in political history and in the history of presidential campaigning. In the space of one year, the man evolved from the overwhelming presidential favorite of Republicans, Democrats, and Independents alike to a presidential drop out, criticized severely and even mocked by press and public alike.
There are many opinions as to why this phenomenon occurred. The press has opinions, the public has opinions, and the people closest to George Romney have opinions.
A step by step analysis of Romney's campaign casts light on these opinions and completely discredits some while validating …
