Measuring Water Bell-Being: Water Indicators And Indices (Chapter 4), Peter H. Gleick, Elizabeth L. Chalecki, Arlene Wong

Political Science Faculty Publications

This chapter reviews methods for assessing the relationship between freshwater resources and human well-being through the development of indicators and indices. It examines single-factor measures like access to clean water, sanitation services, and per capita availability, as well as multifactor indices that integrate economic, environmental, and social variables. Case studies include the Falkenmark Water Stress Index, Basic Human Needs measure, Water Resources Vulnerability Index, and Water Poverty Index. The authors highlight the usefulness of these tools for policy, planning, and public awareness, while emphasizing limitations such as data gaps, changing definitions, scale mismatches, and the difficulty of aggregating diverse measures. …


What Are Teachers Doing To Accommodate For Special Needs Students In The Classroom?, Brenda Stevens, Caroline Everington, Stacy Kozar-Kocsis Jan 2002

What Are Teachers Doing To Accommodate For Special Needs Students In The Classroom?, Brenda Stevens, Caroline Everington, Stacy Kozar-Kocsis

Electronic Journal for Inclusive Education

Elementary teachers (N=42) from a district implementing inclusive practice were surveyed to determine: a) if the frequency of curricular modifications made differ by type of student disability, b) if there is a difference in the frequency of curricular modifications made for special and typical students, and c) if a relationship exists between modifications made for special needs students and for typical students. Results indicate the frequency of teachers' curricular modifications does not differ by type of disability; that they make significantly more frequent modifications for special needs students; and that there is a significant relationship between the frequency of modifications …


A Preferred Vision For Administering Secondary Schools : A Reflective Essay, Jeffrey N. Novotny Jan 2002

A Preferred Vision For Administering Secondary Schools : A Reflective Essay, Jeffrey N. Novotny

Graduate Research Papers

Principals are leaders who must use their personal characteristics, morals, ethics and knowledge to successfully lead their staff and community. When a principal develops and understands his personal qualities and applies them. his school will have the leadership component necessary for success. This paper is my attempt to learn about myself through reflection and education. It is a compilation of my beliefs on leadership, schooling, education, others and myself--all of which will guide me when I become a school administrator.


Phase And Absorption Gratings For Electrons, Hong Gao, Glen Gronniger, Daniel Friemund, Alex Cronin Jan 2002

Phase And Absorption Gratings For Electrons, Hong Gao, Glen Gronniger, Daniel Friemund, Alex Cronin

Department of Physics and Astronomy: Faculty Publications

We report the experimental realization of phase and absorption gratings for electrons. Phase gratings made with standing waves of light with a periodicity of 266 nm are used to diffract 380 eV electrons [1]. Material gratings of 100 and 200 nm periodicity are used to diffract 500 eV electrons. We are exploring the possibility to use these gratings for low energy electron interferometry.

Chemical Composition Of Particles Of D < 0.20 Mu In The Lower Stratospheric Aerosol, Spring 1993, Joseph D. Scott, David M. Chittenden Ii Jan 2002

Chemical Composition Of Particles Of D < 0.20 Mu In The Lower Stratospheric Aerosol, Spring 1993, Joseph D. Scott, David M. Chittenden Ii

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

The majority of the mass of stratospheric aerosol collected during the spring of 1993 consisted principally of particles of d >0.20 mu containing a mixture of H2SO4 and (NaK)2SO4. However, the composition of the more numerous particles with d< 0.2 mu was very different. X-ray emission spectra (EDS) of individual particles indicated that there were three different chemical populations of small particles. The most numerous population was almost all C with only traces of S and Na. The second population contained metal sulfates and chlorides, possibly accreted to a C-containing matrix. The third population consisted of S- and Cl- containing species and trace amounts of Na and K ions. The number of equivalents of metal ion was much less than that of S and Cl species, indicating that most of the S and Cl was not ionic, but was covalently bonded, perhaps to a C matrix.

Orbifold Homeomorphism And Diffeomorphism Groups, Joseph E. Borzellino, Victor Brunsden Jan 2002

Orbifold Homeomorphism And Diffeomorphism Groups, Joseph E. Borzellino, Victor Brunsden

Mathematics

In this paper we outline results on orbifold diffeomorphism groups that were presented at the International Conference on Infinite Dimensional Lie Groups in Geometry and Representation Theory at Howard University, Washington DC on August 17-21, 2000. Specifically, we define the notion of reduced and unreduced orbifold diffeomorphism groups. For the reduced orbifold diffeomorphism group we state and sketch the proof of the following recognition result: Let O1 and O2 be two compact, locally smooth orbifolds. Fix r ≥ 0. Suppose that Φ : Diffr (O1) → Diffr (O2) is a group isomorphism. Then Φ is induced by redred a (topological) …


Modeling An Electrosensory Landscape: Behavioral And Morphological Optimization In Elasmobranch Prey Capture, Brandon R. Brown Jan 2002

Modeling An Electrosensory Landscape: Behavioral And Morphological Optimization In Elasmobranch Prey Capture, Brandon R. Brown

Physics and Astronomy

Most biological sensory systems benefit from multiple sensors. Elasmobranchs (sharks, skates and rays) possess an array of electroreceptive organs that facilitate prey location, mate location and navigation. Here, the perceived electrosensory landscape for an elasmobranch approaching prey is mathematically modeled. The voltages that develop simultaneously in dozens of separate sensing organs are calculated using electrodynamics. These voltages lead directly to firing rate modifications in the primary afferent nerves. The canals connecting the sense organs to an elasmobranch's surface exhibit great variation of location and orientation. Here, the voltages arising in the sense organs are found to depend strongly on the …


Experimental And Computational Study Of The New Gaseous Molecules Omnf And Omnf[Sub 2], G Balducci, M Campodonico, G Gigli, Giovanni Meloni, S N. Cesaro Jan 2002

Experimental And Computational Study Of The New Gaseous Molecules Omnf And Omnf[Sub 2], G Balducci, M Campodonico, G Gigli, Giovanni Meloni, S N. Cesaro

Chemistry Faculty Publications

The new gaseous species OMnF and OMnF2 were identified and studied by high-temperature Knudsen Cell Mass Spectrometry. Their thermochemical atomization energies were derived through the study of several all-gas equilibria in the temperature range 1735–1913 K. FTIR matrix isolation experiments together with ab initio and density functional calculations were performed to determine the molecular parameters, bond distances, and vibrational frequencies of OMnF(g) and OMnF2(g) . The results allowed us to evaluate a set of thermal functions for the new species that were used in the evaluation of the equilibrium data. The proposed atomization energies and enthalpies of formation are DaH0 …


Ventures Into Capturing Effort In Programming, Barbara Bernal-Thomas, Briana B. Morrison Jan 2002

Ventures Into Capturing Effort In Programming, Barbara Bernal-Thomas, Briana B. Morrison

Computer Science Faculty Proceedings & Presentations

The quest for teaching a method of data collection in programming experiences was marked with successes and failures. We believe that software development curricula must provide students with knowledge and experience related to the practice of data collection, which will measure the effort put into a software project. By recording their past effort in software projects, students can more accurately estimate the amount of effort and time required to complete a future software project. Students can also learn the amount of effort required to develop “correct” software and begin to estimate the amount of time required, per software phase, to …


The Work System Method For Understanding Information Systems And Information System Research, Steven Alter Jan 2002

The Work System Method For Understanding Information Systems And Information System Research, Steven Alter

Business Analytics and Information Systems

The work system method is a broadly applicable set of ideas that use the concept of “work system” as the focal point for understanding, analyzing, and improving systems in organizations, whether or not IT is involved. The premises underlying this method may be controversial in the IS community because they imply that the traditional jargon and concerns of IS practitioners and researchers address only part of the issues that should be covered and may discourage focusing on other core issues related to successful projects and systems.

The work system method includes both a static view of a current (or proposed) …

Development And Validation Of Spatially Explicit Habitat Models For Cavity-Nesting Birds In Fishlake National Forest, Utah, Randall J. Schultz, Jr., Thomas C. Edwards, Jr., Gretchen G. Molsen, Tracey S. Frescino Jan 2002

Development And Validation Of Spatially Explicit Habitat Models For Cavity-Nesting Birds In Fishlake National Forest, Utah, Randall J. Schultz, Jr., Thomas C. Edwards, Jr., Gretchen G. Molsen, Tracey S. Frescino

All U.S. Government Documents (Utah Regional Depository)

The ability of USDA Forest Service Forest Inventory and analysis (FIA) generated spatial products to increase the predictive accuracy of spatially explicit, macroscale habitat models was examined for nest-site selection by cavity-nesting birds in Fishlake National Forest, Utah. One FIA-derived variable (percent basal area of aspen trees) was significant in the habitat model; however, the incorporation of FIA stand structure information did not increase model accuracy. Cavity-nesting birds respond strongly to nest-tree attributes unable to be modeled spatially for this study. Future modeling efforts should focus on larger taxa (e.g., ungulates) and richness/diversity studies.
