Canenermiut Lifeways And Worldview And Western Fish And Wildlife Management, Carl T. Jack Dec 2002

Canenermiut Lifeways And Worldview And Western Fish And Wildlife Management, Carl T. Jack

Rural Development

The Canenermiut inter-generational worldview embodies the proper use and conservation of the resources necessary to sustain life from time immemorial. The classical Yupiaq conservation ethics in the utilization of subsistence resources are well established and practiced to this day by Canenermiut that is geared to the survival of their culture and community. When western fish and wildlife managers promulgate regulations from urban areas of Alaska on the taking of subsistence resources in rural Alaska they often find out that rural residents such as the Canenermiut ... are unwilling to follow the regulations. Caneneq is a coastal area between Kusquqvak (Kuskokwim) …


Determining The Impacts Of Storage Practice And Treatment Technology On The Formation Of Disinfection Byproducts, Greta Myerchin Mcgee Dec 2002

Determining The Impacts Of Storage Practice And Treatment Technology On The Formation Of Disinfection Byproducts, Greta Myerchin Mcgee

Theses (Unassigned)

Disinfection byproducts (DBP) are formed during the reaction of chemical disinfectants with natural organic material (NOM). DBPs are potential carcinogens and are regulated by the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEP A) under the Disinfectant/DBP (D/DBP) rule. High concentrations of NOM in drinking water sources used by Alaska's communities often result in the formation of DBPs during treatment. Since surface water sources in the Arctic are frozen for 6-9 months of the year, communities are often forced to store raw water for treatment during the winter or treat and store enough drinking water during the summer to last through the winter. …


The Limnology Of Lake Clark, Alaska, Alexander Xanthus Wilkens Dec 2002

The Limnology Of Lake Clark, Alaska, Alexander Xanthus Wilkens

Biological Sciences

This study gathered baseline limnological data to investigate the thermal structure, water quality, phytoplankton, and zooplankton of Lake Clark, Alaska. Results indicate Lake Clark is oligotrophic and mixes biannually, but stratification is weak and thermoclines are deep. Longitudinal gradients were seen in measurements of temperature, suspended solids, turbidity, light penetration, algal biomass, and zooplankton density. Wind and tributary inputs determine the thermal regime. Glacially-influenced tributaries drive turbidity and light gradients by introducing suspended solids to the inlet end of the lake. Suspended solids likely create the algal biomass gradient by limiting the light available for photosynthesis in the inlet basin. …


People's Experiences Of Gossiping: A Narrative Analysis, Dina V. Nekrassova Dec 2002

People's Experiences Of Gossiping: A Narrative Analysis, Dina V. Nekrassova

Communication

This study employs narrative methodology to develop an understanding of meanings people make of their gossiping experiences. Four theoretical approaches are identified in the review of literature: functionalistic approach, gossip as information management, and gossip as a social form of discreet indiscretion which extended as a basis for examining gossiping as a communication experience. Four themes emerged from six narrative interviews, regarding the co-researchers' interpretations of their gossiping experiences: secrecy as a gossiping experience, gossiping as a negative experience, gossiping as a positive experience, and gossiping as being connected. The equivocal nature of gossiping stems from the participants' engagement in …


Communication Apprehension: A Narrative Analysis Of The Prca-24, Karri C. Vandeventer Dec 2002

Communication Apprehension: A Narrative Analysis Of The Prca-24, Karri C. Vandeventer

Communication

This exploratory study examined individuals' lived experience with communication apprehension (CA). CA has been explored extensively over the past 35 years by researchers seeking psychological explanations for communication phenomenon and employing the premise that CA exists as a "trait-like" characteristic of personality or as a relatively permanent behavioral disposition. Grounded in a constructionist epistemology, this study presumes that meaning is created, maintained, and transformed through communication with others. From this perspective, CA is an individual's evaluation of anticipated or occurring communication events, based upon his/her prior experiences interacting with others in specific situations. Though CA researchers acknowledge this situational basis …

Representation And Marginalization: A Case Study From Contemporary Alaska Native Art, Dawn Drake Biddison Dec 2002

Representation And Marginalization: A Case Study From Contemporary Alaska Native Art, Dawn Drake Biddison

Anthropology

In Alaska, contemporary Native artists are creating compelling works of art, yet, in the literature and exhibitions about Native North American contemporary art, Alaska Native art receives little if any attention. In this study, I assess how contemporary Alaska Native art is presented to the public to evaluate whether these representations marginalize this artwork. I examine the creation, exhibition and reception of contemporary Alaska Native art based on the perspectives of the artists, exhibit evaluations and viewer responses. My goal in this study is to substantiate the need to address the way Alaska Native art is presented and to analyze …

Comparing The Nutritional Quality Of Steller Sea Lion (Eumetopias Jubatus) Diets, Monica Kaho Bando Dec 2002

Comparing The Nutritional Quality Of Steller Sea Lion (Eumetopias Jubatus) Diets, Monica Kaho Bando

Marine Biology

Though the primary cause(s) of the Steller sea lion decline remains unknown, one hypothesis is nutritional stress, possibly the result of climatic regime shifts reducing prey availability and/or quality. Researchers at the Alaska SeaLife Center formulated three feeding regimes representative of Steller sea lion diets: prior to and during their population decline and from a stable population. The purpose of this project was to compare the nutritional quality of these diets using proximate composition and bomb calorimetry. The pre-decline and stable diets are composed of more high-fat prey, like herring, with resulting energy densities being significantly higher than the decline …
