Review Of Pernille Flensted-Jensen (Ed.), Further Studies In The Ancient Greek Polis. Historia Einzelschriften 138, Cpcpapers 5., Vanessa B. Gorman Dec 2000

Review Of Pernille Flensted-Jensen (Ed.), Further Studies In The Ancient Greek Polis. Historia Einzelschriften 138, Cpcpapers 5., Vanessa B. Gorman

Department of History: Faculty Publications

Further Studies in the Ancient Greek Polis is the fifth volume in the series of Papers from the Copenhagen Polis Centre, which monographs, along with six volumes of CPCActs, have served to distribute the continuing conclusions arrived at by the Centre. The reader is expected to know the purpose of these works, as this volume lacks any kind of prefatory explanation for its existence and leaps immediately into the twelve essays of which it is comprised. The reader discovers that the book is actually two works. The seven initial essays treat specific regions within Hellas, often dealing with issues of …

Japanese Winter Tourism In Rural Alaska: Bettles Lodge, Mie Kojima Dec 2000

Japanese Winter Tourism In Rural Alaska: Bettles Lodge, Mie Kojima

Rural Development

Japanese tourists increasingly visit the Arctic in wintertime because of their interest in northern lights. Some rural communities in Alaska see this as an opportunity to enter winter tourism by targeting the Japanese market. The purpose of this study is to gain better understanding of the interests of these Japanese visitors and to explore potentials for tourism development in rural Alaska. A Japanese visitor survey was conducted in the spring of 2000 at Bettles Lodge in Interior Alaska. The data reveal that the average visitor to Bettles Lodge was female, over 61 years of age, an urban dweller, employed full-time, …

Competency-Based Education: Teaching And Assessing Oral Communication In Fairbanks, Alaska High Schools, Diane Blair Barnett Dec 2000

Competency-Based Education: Teaching And Assessing Oral Communication In Fairbanks, Alaska High Schools, Diane Blair Barnett

Communication

Nationwide developments in the area of educational standards and accountability have produced a movement toward competency-based education in which teachers are increasingly tasked with facilitating the competencies within these developing standards. As a result, professionals in the Communication discipline have an opportunity to apply their knowledge of effective communication practices to provide benefits for students and teachers. The first phase of this study examined State and local educational standards in areas of speaking, listening, and group communication. Local and State standards identified as most closely aligned with standards developed by Communication professionals served as the basis for developing a questionnaire …

Nitrogen Oxide Photochemistry In Marine Air Over The Eastern Pacific, Barbara Elisabeth Trost Dec 2000

Nitrogen Oxide Photochemistry In Marine Air Over The Eastern Pacific, Barbara Elisabeth Trost

Chemistry and Biochemistry

Models predict that photochemistry is the primary contribution to the observed spring surface ozone maxima in the Northern Hemisphere. Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are the limiting reagents for photochemical ozone production. This fact leads to an apparent paradox, because the short lifetime of NOx should lead to a low mixing ratio of NOx far from source regions. However, chemical reservoirs of NOx such as peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) may provide a transport pathway for delivering NOx to 'clean' marine Pacific air masses. A coastal site in Washington, was chosen to investigate the relationship of NOx, PAN and ozone in marine air from …

Design And Construction Of A Low Earth Orbit Satellite Ground Station, Eric Darnel Dec 2000

Design And Construction Of A Low Earth Orbit Satellite Ground Station, Eric Darnel

Engineering

This thesis describes the design and construction of a satellite ground station constructed in support of the Citizen Explorer Program. The University of Alaska Fairbanks was chosen to participate in this program due to its latitude that gives it excellent access to polar-orbiting satellites. The advantage that higher latitudes have in accessing low earth orbiting satellites is examined. It is demonstrated that Fairbanks, Alaska, has roughly twice the access to polar orbiting satellites than the mid-latitudes of the contiguous US. Link budgets for the communication system were developed, which led to the construction of helical antennas to communicate with the …

Rayleigh Lidar Studies Of The Arctic Middle Atmosphere, Laura Jeanette Cutler Dec 2000

Rayleigh Lidar Studies Of The Arctic Middle Atmosphere, Laura Jeanette Cutler

Engineering

Rayleigh lidar allows us to measure density and temperature structure of the atmosphere at heights from approximately 35 to 80 kilometers. A Rayleigh lidar was installed at Poker Flat Research Range in November of 1997 and has been operated routinely since. This thesis presents an engineering analysis of the lidar system performance and a scientific analysis of the data obtained. The engineering analysis considers the receiver and transmitter alignment of the lidar system and the signal quality of the lidar data. The scientific analysis considers the retrieval of density and temperature profiles under a range of geophysical conditions. This study …

Design And Simulation Of Flight Computer Using Vhdl For Arim-1 Sounding Rocket Payload, Anirban Chowdhury Dec 2000

Design And Simulation Of Flight Computer Using Vhdl For Arim-1 Sounding Rocket Payload, Anirban Chowdhury

Engineering

Atmospheric Refractive Index Measurement-1 (ARIM-1) is a sounding rocket payload designed to collect information regarding atmospheric turbulence. ARIM-1 is designed to make high-resolution (4 samples per centimeter) differential temperature measurements of the atmosphere to determine the structure of atmospheric turbulence and hence it's refractive index. The rocket's flight computer schedules and manages data acquisition from various payload sub-systems and transmits this acquired data to the ground station. The goal of this work is to develop a custom design for this flight computer using Very High Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language (VHDL). This thesis presents simulation and hardware requirements for …

Lived Ethnicity: Identity, Consciousness, And Discursive Practice In Grayling, Alaska, Brenden Raymond-Yakoubian Dec 2000

Lived Ethnicity: Identity, Consciousness, And Discursive Practice In Grayling, Alaska, Brenden Raymond-Yakoubian

Anthropology

This thesis is an analysis of data collected from academic, archival, and ethnographic inquiries into the lives, culture, and history of the residents of Grayling, Alaska. The main argument forwarded in this thesis is that forms of discursive practice provide a means, emic and etic, for critically engaging the historically and locally constructed web of meanings that inscribe and inform the lived social reality of ethnic identity of ethnic identity and consciousness in Grayling. Using a communicative-discursive theoretical framework, influences and forces which inform this 'lived ethnicity, ' the strands of the web, are understood dialogically - as discursive forms …

Motion And Calving At Leconte Glacier, Alaska, Shad O'Neel Dec 2000

Motion And Calving At Leconte Glacier, Alaska, Shad O'Neel

Theses (Unassigned)

An analysis of motion and calving in the terminus region of LeConte Glacier delineates controls which are important to tidewater glacier stability. Ice velocities in this region are quite high; at the terminus they exceed 27 m d⁻¹. Our analysis reveals fluctuations in velocity that are forced by ocean tides, surface melt and precipitation. However, the overall velocity is steady over seasonal time intervals. LeConte's terminus position varied substantially, even given this steady ice influx, establishing a correlation between the calving flux and the terminus position (flux out). Although this correlation is largely numerical, the occurrence of calving events is …

A Qualitative Study Of The Women And Children's Residential Treatment Center Substance Abuse Treatment Program, Phillip Elwyn Gilbert Dec 2000

A Qualitative Study Of The Women And Children's Residential Treatment Center Substance Abuse Treatment Program, Phillip Elwyn Gilbert

Psychology

This thesis presents the results of a formative process evaluation of the Fairbanks Native Association Women and Children's Residential Treatment Center abuse program using interviews, participant observation, and grounded theory methods of qualitative research. Eight clients and eight staff were interviewed across the domains of culture, spirituality and family. A theory of program operation emanated from and was grounded in the data: program functioning was significantly affected by the relationship perceived by the clients to exist between themselves, (their needs, values, desires, goals and world view) and the program's goals and priorities.

The Ecology Of The Arctic Char And The Dolly Varden In The Becharof Lake Drainage, Alaska, Brendan P. Scanlon Dec 2000

The Ecology Of The Arctic Char And The Dolly Varden In The Becharof Lake Drainage, Alaska, Brendan P. Scanlon

Fisheries

Becharof Lake is home to both Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and the closely related Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma), two species known not only to be similar in appearance but also to exhibit similar life histories. The body morphometry, otolith microchemistry, and stomach contents of both species were studied in fish collected from May to September 1998. Morphometric and meristic analysis revealed clear separation in body structure between the two species, as well as potential sub-populations within each species. Otolith microchemistry revealed incidences of anadromy and non-anadromy in both species. Stomach content analysis revealed a broad feeding niche but smaller ranges …
