Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
The genetic diversity and evolution of plastomes in P. armeniaca L. (common/cultivated apricot) have been poorly studied.Complete plastomes of 20 accessions and 10 F1 hybrids, identified as P. armeniaca L., were de novo assembled filtering from total DNAnt reads. These plastomes were subsequently analyzed with the Prunus genus accessions retrieved from the GenBank. The plastomesexhibited conservation of genomic structure, gene organization and order, with lengths ranging from 158,057 nt to 158,089 nt,displaying a narrow size variation. Except for “Zard” and its hybrids, the plastomes of apricot genotypes from different regions showedonly three haplotypes, indicating narrow genetic diversity in cultivated P. …

Single Valued Neutrosophic Number Ensemble Learning Model For Stability Classification Of Open Pit Mine Slopes, Hanzhong Wang, Jun Ye, Rui Yong
Neutrosophic Sets and Systems
China's open pit mining industry faces the dual challenge of increasing production and preventing disasters. In order to ensure the safe exploitation of mineral resources, the stability of slopes must be assessed. In light of the fact that over 1,950 landslide accidents have occurred over the past decade, accounting for 15% of all safety incidents, the evaluation of slope stability has become a critical research focus in the fields of geo-resources and geo-engineering. Traditional slope stability evaluation methods rely on empirical tools and the expertise of professionals to assess slope stability. In contrast, machine learning (ML) methods offer a more …

Development Of A Severe Winter Index: Buffalo, New York, Theodore Mcinerney, Stephen Vermette
The Geographical Bulletin
Climate indices provide a useful way to characterize climate. The objective of this study is to rank the past 37 winters (1970-1971 to 2006-2007) in Buffalo, New York using a ‘Severe Winter Index’ (SWI) that incorporates a number of winter-related elements. Five elements were chosen to reflect varying aspects of a winter season: snowfall amount, number of days with 12 inches or greater of snow on the ground, heating degree days (HDD), number of days with temperatures at or below 0o F, and percent cloudiness during daylight hours. Data were obtained from the Buffalo Forecast Office of the National Weather …
Spatial Patterns Of Methamphetamine In North Dakota, Alex Feidler, Roni Mayzer, Kevin Romig, Douglas Munski
Spatial Patterns Of Methamphetamine In North Dakota, Alex Feidler, Roni Mayzer, Kevin Romig, Douglas Munski
The Geographical Bulletin
In the last decade, the methamphetamine situation has become critical in North Dakota, which has the third-highest rate of clandestine meth lab seizures in the country. This study addresses two questions: 1) What is the spatial pattern of meth–related arrests in North Dakota? and 2) What geographic factors account for the increased prevalence of meth use and production in the state? This study employs GIS overlay and multiple regression analysis to determine the spatiality of the phenomenon. The findings reveal that meth-related arrests tend to take place in the more urban southeast and central counties while meth lab seizures tend …
Displacement And Development: The Paradoxes Of India’S Tehri Dam, Jason Newton
Displacement And Development: The Paradoxes Of India’S Tehri Dam, Jason Newton
The Geographical Bulletin
The town of Old Tehri, India has been inundated by a lake created by the construction of the Tehri Hydroelectric Dam, one of the Indian government’s newest modernization and development projects. This dam is beset by a paradox: it attempts to bring modernization and development to the far reaches of the territory, while creating displacement conflicts which can change a relatively few people’s lives for the potential benefit of millions of others. A new city designed for the displaced residents, New Tehri, has been presented by the government as a solution for the displaced people. However, by conducting fieldwork onsite …
Growth-Liberating Technology Meets Fragmented Regulation: Decentralized Wastewater Systems In Wilson County, Tennessee, Kendrick J. Curtis
Growth-Liberating Technology Meets Fragmented Regulation: Decentralized Wastewater Systems In Wilson County, Tennessee, Kendrick J. Curtis
The Geographical Bulletin
Conventional sewage disposal technologies have long been a critical limiting factor of growth patterns. However, the advent of decentralized wastewater systems is weakening their influence. No longer constrained to areas where sewers can be economically extended or limited by the siting constraints of septic systems, developers are free to pursue projects wherever opportunities arise. In this paper, I examine what happened when this spatially liberating technology was introduced into an existing suite of regulations, jurisdictions, and actors involved in the development process. I found that while local governments are making rational decisions, they are doing so within limited spatial bounds. …

Scales Of Whiteness And Racial Mixing: Challenging And Confirming Racial Categories, Serin D. Houston
Scales Of Whiteness And Racial Mixing: Challenging And Confirming Racial Categories, Serin D. Houston
The Geographical Bulletin
This paper examines personal and public portrayals of the self and family articulated by heterosexual mixed-race households living in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. It argues that an attention to scale sheds light on how mixed-race partnerships and households both reproduce a racial hierarchy and express shifting racial identities. A focus on the work of whiteness – defined here as an evaluative set of practices and processes that implicitly or explicitly legitimate a static racial hierarchy – in the confirmation of and challenges to racial categories further specifies my claims. I explore seemingly contradictory expressions of race in …
Comparison Of Recycling Rates Of Three Adjacent Communities In St. Clair County, Illinois, Pamela Lauf
Comparison Of Recycling Rates Of Three Adjacent Communities In St. Clair County, Illinois, Pamela Lauf
The Geographical Bulletin
This research project consists of two types of surveys to assess recycling in the city limits of Belleville, Swansea, and O’Fallon, Illinois, each of which uses a different type of recycling program. One method of data collection consisted of conducting visual surveys to observe participation rates. The second was a questionnaire mailed to homes in these communities requesting information on the household’s recycling habits, attitudes toward curbside recycling, income, and highest education level achieved by head of household. This project determined that the most influential factor in determining whether people take part in a curbside recycling program is cost.
Street Trees And Urban Renewal: A Baltimore Case Study, Cynthia L. Merse, Geoffrey L. Buckley, Christopher G. Boone
Street Trees And Urban Renewal: A Baltimore Case Study, Cynthia L. Merse, Geoffrey L. Buckley, Christopher G. Boone
The Geographical Bulletin
For centuries, street trees have persisted as enduring features of the urban landscape. Evidence shows that investing in “green infrastructure” not only contributes to a healthy ecosystem but offers economic and social benefits as well. Despite these advantages, the popularity of street trees has waxed and waned over the years in cities across the United States. The urban forest in Baltimore, Maryland has not been immune to these fluctuations, despite the city’s reputation for innovative tree care and the emphasis city officials placed on street tree planting as part of the urban renewal programs of the 1950s and 1960s. One …
A Revised Climatically Optimal Major League Baseball Season In North America, Brent R. Skeeter
A Revised Climatically Optimal Major League Baseball Season In North America, Brent R. Skeeter
The Geographical Bulletin
A study conducted in the late 1980s determined the climatically optimal placement of the Major League Baseball season based on temperature and several other climatic variables. Numerous changes have taken place in Major League Baseball since the late 1980s which could have potentially altered the placement of the climatically optimal season. This paper updates the previous work in order to determine the current climatically optimal season. The results indicate that the climatically optimal season has only changed slightly since the time of the previous study. As found in the previous study, based on climate alone, the season should begin and …

Amazigh Nationalism In The Maghreb, John Lauermann
Amazigh Nationalism In The Maghreb, John Lauermann
The Geographical Bulletin
While many inhabitants of the Maghreb (a cultural region of Northwest Africa) are ethnically Arab, the region is also home to a significant minority population. An indigenous population of the Maghreb, the Imazighen (singular: Amazigh) account for at least 13 percent of regional population. Imazighen exhibit a substantial level of ethnic consciousness and nationalist sentiment. This research investigates manifestations of Amazigh nationalism through political affiliations and cultural associations, focusing especially on Amazigh populations in Algeria and Morocco. Overall, this research finds that there are well-developed Amazigh nationalist ideologies and organizations in, and beyond, the Maghreb. These nationalist forces play significant …

Disturbance And Successional Dynamics In An Old-Growth Whitepine-Mixed Hardwood Forest In The Great Lakes Region Of Minnesota, Grant P. Elliott, Evan R. Larson
Disturbance And Successional Dynamics In An Old-Growth Whitepine-Mixed Hardwood Forest In The Great Lakes Region Of Minnesota, Grant P. Elliott, Evan R. Larson
The Geographical Bulletin
Concern exists regarding the decline of Eastern white pine (Pinus strobus L.) in the pine-mixed hardwood forests of the Great Lakes region. Using dendroecological techniques, we reconstructed the disturbance history and successional dynamics of an isolated old-growth white pine-mixed hardwood forest in northeastern Minnesota. The oldest trees in the stand were white pine, but a transition to late-successional species began in the mid-1800s prior to extensive anthropogenic influences in the region. This was facilitated by a change in the dominant disturbance type from fire to a combination of wind throw and white-tailed deer browsing. This transition appears to have occurred …
Toward A Non-Totalizing Critique Of Capitalism, Kate Driscoll Derickson
Toward A Non-Totalizing Critique Of Capitalism, Kate Driscoll Derickson
The Geographical Bulletin
In this paper, I critically engage from a feminist perspective with arguments from David Harvey’s Condition of Postmodernity. Using feminist insights into epistemology and ontology, I argue that Harvey’s is a totalizing theory, and as such, lacks the emancipatory value it claims to offer. I then engage with some feminist critiques of Harvey’s work, arguing that, while innovative, they are insufficient insofar as they fail to provide a critique of capitalism. Drawing on the work of feminist epistemologist Lorraine Code, I explore what a non-totalizing theory of capitalism might look like. I conclude by arguing the work of Gibson-Graham and …
Policy Note | Weekly Fed Report Still Drives Discount Window Stigma, Steven Kelly
Policy Note | Weekly Fed Report Still Drives Discount Window Stigma, Steven Kelly
Journal of Financial Crises
As banking regulators work to destigmatize the Federal Reserve’s discount window—and fervently so since the 2023 banking crisis—they’ve pointed to several potentially fruitful policy routes. These have included supervisory improvements, regulatory changes, and operational enhancements by both the banks and the Fed. Left off the menu so far have been changes to the Fed’s weekly publications that reveal up-to-date discount window borrowing data by regional geography. Reforms following the Global Financial Crisis of 2007–2009 have made mandatory the disclosure of discount window borrowers on a two-year lag—higher transparency than previously when no disclosure was required. However, bigger banks, such as …

The Scope Of The Possible: Canadian Courts, Emotion, And The Assertion Of Crown Sovereignty, Julia Brown
The Scope Of The Possible: Canadian Courts, Emotion, And The Assertion Of Crown Sovereignty, Julia Brown
LLM Theses
This thesis considers emotion and the role emotion plays in judicial reasoning in three Aboriginal title decisions. The aim of this analysis is to draw to the surface emotional undercurrents and commitments that, together with other currents, impact the direction of judicial reasoning in these cases. Using methodologies and approaches from the area of law and emotion, this thesis employs close readings of the three Aboriginal title decisions to draw out lacunae in the Supreme Court of Canada’s reasoning. These lacunae reflect fixed assumptions that the Court chooses not to interrogate, such as the Crown’s acquisition of radical title to …

Understanding The Dynamics Of Board-Executive Director Relationships In Nonprofits: A Qualitative Study Of Youth-Serving Nonprofits In Utah, Jaxon Didericksen, Jayme E. Walters, Dorothy Wallis
Social Work Faculty Publications
A functional positive relationship between the executive director (ED) and the board of directors (BOD) is crucial to nonprofits meeting their missions. The present qualitative study sought to identify factors—including traits, behaviors, processes, and experiences—associated with positive relationships between BODs and EDs in youth-serving nonprofits in Utah. Surveys were utilized to identify pairs (N = 6) of board chairs and EDs who had high relationship satisfaction. Individual semi-structured interviews were employed with each participant. Transcripts were analyzed using two-cycle coding, descriptive and pattern coding in which three themes emerged: (1) Background; (2) Roles; and (3) Leadership. The findings illustrated …
