Process, Structure, And Form: An Evolutionary Transpersonal Psychology Of Consciousness, Allan Combs, Stanley Krippner

International Journal of Transpersonal Studies

In the spirit of William James, we present a process view of human consciousness. Our approach,

however, follows upon Charles Tart’s original systems theory analysis of states of consciousness,

although it differs in its reliance on the modern sciences of complexity, especially dynamical systems

theory and its emphasis on process and evolution. We argue that consciousness experience

is constructive in the sense that it is the result of ongoing self-organizing and self-creating

(autopoietic) processes in the mind and body. These processes follow a broad developmental

agenda already described by psychologists such as Jean Piaget. Similar constructive transformations

of consciousness appear …

Borehole Radar Attenuation-Difference Tomography During The Tracer/Time-Lapse Test At The Boise Hydrogeophysical Research Site, Sarah E. Goldstein, Tim C. Johnson, Michael D. Knoll, Warren Barrash, William P. Clement

Geosciences Faculty Publications and Presentations

A tracer test and time-lapse radar imaging experiment was conducted at the Boise Hydrogeophysical Research Site to investigate the utility of crosswell radar in imaging an electrically conductive tracer plume. A multilevel water sampling system down gradient from the tracer injection well and in the radar imaging plane was used to collect detailed, 1-dimensional, fluid electrical conductivity data during the tracer test. We compare the spatial and temporal position and concentration variations of the plume as indicated by the fluid conductivity data to those suggested by radar level run attenuation differences, shot-receiver attenuation difference crossplots, and an attenuation-difference tomogram. We …

Grassland Bird Monitoring At Agate Fossil Beds National Monument, Nebraska And Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve, Kansas, David G. Peitz, Gareth A. Rowell

United States National Park Service: Publications

During the breeding seasons of 2001 through 2003, a total of 517 variable circular plots were surveyed for birds and assessed for habitat composition at Agate Fossil Beds National Monument, Nebraska and Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve, Kansas. Systematic 400 x 400 meter grids, originating from random start points, were used to locate 40 permanent variable circular plots in upland habitat at Agate Fossil Beds National Monument and 242 at Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve. An additional 14 permanent plots were established in the less common but important riparian habitat at Agate Fossil Beds National Monument, and 18 plots were added in …

An Algebraic Characterization Of Projective-Planar Graphs, Lowell Abrams, Dan Slilaty

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications

We give a detailed algebraic characterization of when a graph G can be imbedded in the projective plane. The characterization is in terms of the existence of a dual graph G∗ on the same edge set as G which satisfies algebraic conditions inspired by homology groups and intersection products in homology groups.

Weathering Of Sulfidic Shale And Copper Mine Waste: Secondary Minerals And Metal Cycling In Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee, And North Carolina, Usa, Jane M. Hammarstrom, Robert R. Seal Ii, Allen L. Meier, John C. Jackson

United States Geological Survey: Staff Publications

Metal cycling via physical and chemical weathering of discrete sources (copper mines) and regional (non-point) sources (sulfide-rich shale) is evaluated by examining the mineralogy and chemistry of weathering products in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee, and North Carolina, USA. The elements in copper mine waste, secondary minerals, stream sediments, and waters that are most likely to have negative impacts on aquatic ecosystems are aluminum, copper, zinc, and arsenic because these elements locally exceed toxicity guidelines for surface waters or for stream sediments. Acid-mine drainage has not developed in streams draining inactive copper mines. Acid-rock drainage and chemical weathering processes …

A Phase I And Pharmacologic Study Of Weekly Gemcitabine In Combination With Infusional 5-Fluorodeoxyuridine And Oral Calcium Leucovorin, Jean L. Grem, Mary G. Quinn, Bruce Keith, Brian P. Monahan, J. Michael Hamilton, Yan Xu, Nancy Harold, Dat Nguyen, Chris H. Takimoto, Anthony Rowedder, Janet Pang, Geraldine Morrison, Alice Chen

Chemistry Faculty Publications

Purpose: Since preclinical studies have shown more than additive cytotoxicity and DNA damage with the combination of gemcitabine and 5-fluoro-2′-deoxyuridine (FUDR), we studied this combination in a phase I trial. Methods: Gemcitabine alone was given in cycle 1 as a 24-h, 2-h or 1-h i.v. infusion weekly for 3 of 4 weeks; if tolerated, a 24-h i.v. infusion of FUDR was added with oral leucovorin. The cycle was aborted for grade 3 thrombocytopenia, grade 4 neutropenia, and grade 2 or worse nonhematologic toxicity. Results: During cycle 1, six of eight patients who received 150 or 100 mg/m2 over 24 h …

Hydrogen Incorporation And Diffusivity In Plasma-Exposed Bulk Zno, K. Ip, M. E. Overberg, Y. W. Heo, D. P. Norton, S. J. Pearton, C. E. Stutz, B. Luo, F. Ren, David C. Look, J. M. Zavada

Physics Faculty Publications

Hydrogen incorporation depths of >25 μm were obtained in bulk, single-crystal ZnO during exposure to ²H plasmas for 0.5 h at 300 °C, producing an estimated diffusivity of ∼ 8×10⁻¹⁰ cm²/V⋅s at this temperature. The activation energy for diffusion was 0.17±0.12 eV, indicating an interstitial mechanism. Subsequent annealing at 500–600 °C was sufficient to evolve all of the hydrogen out of the ZnO, at least to the sensitivity of secondary ion mass spectrometry (<5×10¹⁵ cm⁻³). The thermal stability of hydrogen retention is slightly greater when the hydrogen is incorporated by direct implantation …

An Assessment Of Water Quality In Ensign Hollow, Clayton And Fayette Counties, In Northeast Iowa, Rick Klann, Jaime Platts

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Water quality and benthic invertebrates in the Ensign Hollow watershed, southwestern Clayton County and southeastern Fayette County, Iowa, were monitored from 2000 to 2001. Measurements of physical and chemical parameters of water quality, as well as analysis of benthic invertebrates, all indicated that streams of the Ensign Hollow watershed were exposed to slight organic pollution. Furthermore, the greatest threat to this watershed appeared to be sedimentation introduced through runoff.

A Framework For Reproductive Models Of Mourning Doves, David L. Otis

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Population models can be used to aid in development and evaluation of harvest management strategies for game species. No current models are available for the Mourning Dove (Zenaida macroura), which is considered a migratory game bird in 37 states. A predictive model for annual reproduction is a necessary component of such a model. I used a simple construct based on parameters of the Mourning Dove breeding cycle to develop probability distributions of annual per capita reproduction for each of five geographical regions in the U.S. Confidence intervals for model predictions included average estimates from published studies in all regions except …

Recent Observations Of The Distribution And Status Of Freckled Madtom And First Record Of Spotted Gar In Iowa, Melvin C. Bowler

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

The distribution and status of Iowa's fishes were last extensively described in Iowa Fish and Fishing (Harlan et al. 1987). Since then, numerous fish collections have been made in Iowa's interior and bordering rivers and streams. In this paper, I describe recent collections of freckled mad tom (Noturus nocturnus) and spotted gar (Lepisosteus oculatus) from the Upper Mississippi. River (UMR). Six specimens of N. nocturnus were collected from Pool 13 of the UMR in 2001. Although the first documented specimens of N. nocturnus in Iowa were collected in the English River in 1984, few collections have been made throughout the …
