Icehouse–Greenhouse Variations In Marine Denitrification, T. J. Algeo, P. A. Meyers, Rebecca S. Robinson, H. Rowe, G. Q. Jiang
Graduate School of Oceanography Faculty Publications
Long-term secular variation in the isotopic composition of seawater fixed nitrogen (N) is poorly known. Here, we document variation in the N-isotopic composition of marine sediments (δ15Nsed) since 660 Ma (million years ago) in order to understand major changes in the marine N cycle through time and their relationship to first-order climate variation. During the Phanerozoic, greenhouse climate modes were characterized by low δ15Nsed (∼−2 to +2‰) and icehouse climate modes by high δ15Nsed (∼+4 to +8‰). Shifts toward higher δ15Nsed occurred rapidly during the early stages …

On Thin Ice? Domestic Violence Advocacy And Law Enforcement-Immigration Collaborations, Diana Rempe
On Thin Ice? Domestic Violence Advocacy And Law Enforcement-Immigration Collaborations, Diana Rempe
Dissertations and Theses
The public focus on domestic violence has been one of the most successful campaigns of the modern women's movement. This success was achieved in part through the creation of strategic alliances among agencies and organizations responding to partner violence. One of the most contested of these alliances involved partnering with the criminal justice system. While representing an advance in holding police accountable in protecting all citizens (Coker, 2006), this alliance has had problematic consequences, particularly as it has extended state power into the lives of women of color (e.g. Richie, 2005). This problem is exacerbated by new collaborations between law …

Coal Severance Taxes: A New Social Justice And Community/ Economic Development Tool For Coal-Producing Areas, Raymond C. Lenzi
Coal Severance Taxes: A New Social Justice And Community/ Economic Development Tool For Coal-Producing Areas, Raymond C. Lenzi
Sociological Practice
One hundred eight-eight coal-producing counties in fifteen states were examined todetermine the relationship of coal severance tax allocations to community economicdevelopment and change in socio-economic conditions. The one hundred countiesreceiving coal severance taxes were identified as an "experimental group'' and theeighty-eight counties not receiving these funds were used as a "control group'' and theeighty-eight counties not receiving these funds were used as a "control group" in aquasi-experimental model. The five key socio-economic variables examined were (1)per capita income, (2) poverty rate, (3) employment growth, (4) unemployment rate,and (5) bank deposits. Coal counties which received coal severance tax allocationsand community economic …
The Structural Evolution Of Fort Frontenac, W. Bruce Stewart
The Structural Evolution Of Fort Frontenac, W. Bruce Stewart
Northeast Historical Archaeology
Fort Frontenac, located at the eastern end of Lake Ontario, in Kingston, Ontario, is among the earliest European sites in the Great Lakes Basin. The post was established in 1673 by Count Frontenac, then Governor of New France, as a means of intercepting furs destined for the Dutch and, later, the English merchants at Albany, New York. As the result of ongoing archaeological and historical research, a comprehensive structural history of the post has been developed. As the archaeological investigations have been restricted to the northwest bastion of the fort, that area will serve as the focus of the present …
Urban Sprawl In The United States: 1970-2010, Russell Lopez
Urban Sprawl In The United States: 1970-2010, Russell Lopez
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
This paper examines changes in urban sprawl in United States metropolitan areas from 1970 to 2010 using a sprawl measure based on the proportional differences in population percentages between high density and low density tracts. During the past four decades, sprawl has increased, but the rate of increase has dramatically decelerated since the 1970s. Considering individual metropolitan areas, there are several different sprawl histories. Some metros continue to have high rates of sprawl increases, others (the majority) have settled into steady state or modestly changing levels of sprawl, and others have a history of densification. Regression analysis shows that 1970 …

Paradoxes In Landscape Management And Water Conservation: Examining Neighborhood Norms And Institutional Forces, Kelli L. Larson, Jaleila Brumand
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
With heavy water use and other inputs, residential lawns and traditional yard features result in resource consumption, pollution, and changes in biodiversity. Several studies have examined the driving forces behind landscaping practices, but few have examined how social institutions affect residents’ decisions. We fill this gap by asking: how do formal and informal rules influence yard management, and how do these institutions interact in particular neighborhoods? Our interview-based case study is situated in Phoenix, Arizona, where outdoor irrigation constitutes a large portion of water demand. Overall, informal norms and customs at varying scales more strongly influence landscaping decisions than codified …

Abstract: We report on the early results of a survey-based assessment of stewardship activities within the Chicago Wilderness region, work conducted as a part of the Chicago ULTRA-Ex project. Chicago Wilderness is a 270 member alliance focused on preserving and enhancing biodiversity throughout northern Illinois and parts of Wisconsin, Indiana and Michigan (USA). The results described include 369 stewardship groups including non-governmental organizations, community groups, municipalities and others who voluntarily filled out the survey between November 2010 and November 2011. Environment, education, community improvement, youth and recreation are the top five foci of the efforts of Chicago Wilderness Area stewards …

What Does It Take To Achieve Equitable Urban Tree Canopy Distribution? A Boston Case Study., Rachel S. Danford, Chingwen Cheng, Michael W. Strohbach, Robert Ryan, Craig Nicolson, Paige S. Warren
Cities and the Environment (CATE)
Considerable attention has been paid to the benefits that urban trees provide and recent research has focused on how the distribution of trees in the urban landscape is affected by socioeconomic processes like social stratification, as indicated by associations with income, race, ethnicity, and education. These studies have found marked disparity in urban canopy cover, with primarily low income and minority neighborhoods commonly being underserved. However, few studies have investigated the potential to overcome urban canopy inequities through urban planning and reforestation. This question becomes even more important as many U.S. cities pledge to increase urban canopy cover as part …

Suspicious Minds: The Spirituality Of The Postmodern Nones, Michael Murphy
Theology: Faculty Publications and Other Works
Much has been made about the “nones” and the current demographics of belief in the United States, especially those of young people. The term nones rose to prominence when a Pew Research Center poll in 2012 called “Nones on the Rise” discovered that nearly 20 percent of Americans claim no religious affiliation—a number that has been steadily climbing since 2007. Last January, National Public Radio aired a weeklong series titled “Losing Our Religion: The Growth of the nones.” In the spring of 2013, a poll conducted by Michael Hout of the University of California, Berkeley, and Mark A. Chaves of …

The California Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME), a temperate marine region dominated by episodic upwelling, is predicted to experience rapid environmental change in the future due to ocean acidification. The aragonite saturation state within the California Current System is predicted to decrease in the future with near-permanent undersaturation conditions expected by the year 2050. Thus, the CCLME is a critical region to study due to the rapid rate of environmental change that resident organisms will experience and because of the economic and societal value of this coastal region. Recent efforts by a research consortium-the Ocean Margin Ecosystems Group for Acidification …

“This Erstwhile Unreadable Text”: Deep Time, Multidisciplinarity And First-Year Writing Faculty Mentoring And Support, Denise K. Comer
Teaching/Writing: The Journal of Writing Teacher Education
Despite the otherwise rich multidisciplinary terrain of writing studies, the strategies most often used with first-year writing teacher teaching mentoring and support tend to remain discordantly anchored to a comparatively narrow version of writing pedagogy. I argue in this article that the geologic concept of deep time offers a way of infusing a multidisciplinary dimension into first-year writing faculty teaching mentoring and support that will enrich the ways faculty and students think, write, and talk about first-year writing. This article discusses deep-time pedagogy, providing specific strategies for infusing multidisciplinary dimensions into first-year writing faculty teaching mentoring and support. Such a …
The Popular Sovereignty Foundations Of The Right To Vote, Franita Tolson
The Popular Sovereignty Foundations Of The Right To Vote, Franita Tolson
Schmooze 'tickets'
In recent years, courts and commentators have focused on the federalism-based limits on the power of the federal government, with significantly less attention given to similar constraints on state power. It is not surprising, therefore, that both camps have overlooked that the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, with their reservation of both rights and power “to the people” contain a popular sovereignty principle that affects the constitutionality of various state election law regulations. This goal of this Article is to reaffirm that the people are, in essence, part of the federalism equation, and not simply as protectors of state power, but …

Marketing Archaeology, William H. Krieger

In the 19th century, ‘scientific archaeologists’ split from their antiquarian colleagues over the role that provenience (context) plays in the value of an artifact. These archaeologists focus on documenting an artifact’s context when they remove it from its original location. Archaeologists then use this contextual information to place these artifacts within a particular larger assemblage, in a particular time and space. Once analyzed, the artifacts found in a site or region can be used to document, to understand, and explain the past. Given the central place of context for archaeological excavation, archaeologists have done everything in their power to combat …

Yokozuna And The Calling Of Names That Aren’T Our Own, Brian Oliu
Booth
It was the right ocean but the wrong island—instead of rising suns, there was the son of islanders: wild-eyed and wild-isled, grunting in place of words—every syllable guttural, every bark signifying a smash. The monster billed from Polynesia in hopes that we would ignore geography and the limiting stretch of triangles across Oceana and concentrate on him—thick-nosed and stoic—a body so wide it looked as if it touched both guardrails as he lumbered away from something much more majestic than where he was hailed from: a certainty where there should be mystery, a forgetful scooping together as if grabbing fistfuls …
