The Effect Of The Bicarbonate Ion On The Respiration Of Excised Roots, Gene W. Miller

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

For many years man has been searching for a cure for lime-induced chlorosis. This disease is prevalent throughout the entire western United States and is characterized by a yellowing of the leaves, destruction of the chlorophyll, and eventual death of the plant. It has brought devastation of fruit orchards in Utah, costing fruit producers millions of dollars. Hardly any county in Utah is free from this destructive nutritional disease.

The Content Of Essential Amino Acids In 1950 Alfalfa Hay Grown In Utah Soil Treated With Different Fertilizers, Adriana Lanting Kunkel

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Application of fertilizers to soils to increase production yields has raised questions concerning the effect of fertilizer on chemical composition of plants. With the development of accurate, sensitive microbiological methods for the determination of amino acid in protein, speculations concerning amino acid content have been supplanted by acquisition of facts.

The effect of the different fertilizer applications on alfalfa yield has been discussed by Jones, et al (5). Also, some work has been done to determine the effect different fertilizers might have on the amino acid content of plant material. Some values (1,3,12) have been reported for the amino acid …

Exchange Reactions Of The Transuranium Elements Section 1. Am(Iii)-Am(V)-Am(Vi), Am(Iii)-Am(V), And Am(V)-Am(Vi), Thomas K. Keenan

Chemistry and Chemical Biology ETDs

No exchange work prior to this dissertation has been reported on the americium system. Neptunium exchange is presently being studied by J. C. Hindman and co-workers at the Argonne National Laboratory, but has not been completely reported. Study of uranium exchange, which is still in an unsatisfactory state, has been limited to the U(IV)-(VI) exchange.

Variable Field Beta-Ray Spectrometer-Spectrograph, Robert Katz, Milford R. Lee

Robert Katz Publications

A variable field 180° type beta-ray spectrometer- spectrograph has recently been constructed and placed in operation at Kansas State College. The instrument (Fig. 1) is presently operated as a variable field spectrometer of 15-centimeter radius, with data obtained by Geiger counter detection; or as a “fixed field” spectrograph with data obtained through the exposure of photographic film.

Aerial Survey Township Areas, Willford L. Miller

Other Publications in Wildlife Management

In the year 1946, two townships of experimental work in aerial censusing. technique for obtaining complete counts during the winter months.

The aerial survey proved to be very satisfactory when snow conditions are right. At I available cover must be well filled with snow, with very few bare spots in fields or other parts of the area. The birds tend to congregate on such bare places where it is very difficult to see them from the plane.

In 1951 a total of 40 townships were laid out as census plots in different parts of the state. In 1952 six new …

Evaluation Of Sprinkler Irrigation Systems In Northern Utah, Jay M. Bagley, Wayne D. Criddle

Reports

Summary and Conclusions: Sprinkler irrigation will continue to expand in Utah as well as in other irrigated areas of the world. This method of irrigation is suitable to all farm crops grown in the state and to most soils. It is particularly adapted to steep foothill areas where the water supply can be obtained at higher elevation and pumping is not necessary to develop pressure for the sprinkler systems. Also, much of the irrigated land of the state, particularly along the Wasatch front, is owned and operated by "part-time" farmers. Having the water under complete control and the irrigation schedule …

Nebraska Tractor Tests

This report and any related files are made available to the online through the Lester F. Larsen Tractor Test and Power Museum as resources allow. Established in 1998, this museum is located on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln East Campus. It is and appropriately housed within the walls of the historic 1920 Nebraska Tractor Test Laboratory, where the first tractor test was started on March 31st, 1920. Because the pioneer tests became worldwide standards, this location was designated as a Historic Landmark of Agricultural Engineering by the American Society of Agricultural Engineers in 1980, shortly after testing was moved to a …

The Velocity Of Ultrasonics In Liquids, Mack A. Breazeale

Masters Theses

"In acoustics the term ultrasonics is used to refer to those frequencies which are above the range of human hearing; that is, frequencies above approximately 20,000 cycles per second. Since the laws of sound which are valid for the audible range are also valid in the ultrasonic range and since the wave length of ultrasonics is much shorter than that of audible sound, ultrasonic has proved very valuable in the calculation of both the velocity and the absorption coefficient of sound in various media. This is especially notable in the case of liquids, where the velocity of sound is much …

Geology Of The South Half Of The Meramec Spring Quadrangle, Missouri, Howard Joseph Yorston

Masters Theses

"This report is a continuation of the work initiated by Mueller in his mapping of the north half of the Meramec Spring Quadrangle. The completion of this work provides not only a geologic map of the whole quadrangle but also completes the mapping of the geology of a strip of quadrangles extending from Rolla to the Mississippi River. In addition to being a step closer to the goal of complete geologic coverage for the state, this work will be of value to those concerned with the prediction of depths of wells drilled in search for water, which in view of …

Foraminifera Of The Type Section Of The Archusa Marl Of Mississippi (Eocene, Claiborne Group, Wautubbee Formation), Nathan Eugene Crockett

Masters Theses

"The type locality of the Archusa marl member of the Wautubbee formation is situated south of Quitman, Clarke County, Mississippi. Stratigraphically, the unit falls within the middle Eocene Claiborne group, being roughly equivalent to the upper part of the Lisbon formation of Alabama and the lower part of the Cook Mountain. The marl falls within the Ostrea sellaefonnis zone and the zone of "Ceratobulimina eximia.” The type section consists of 48 feet of sandy marls, with a thin oyster bed near the middle.

The Archusa foraminifera fauna consists of 87 species and varieties, belonging to 49 genera and …

The Mineralogy Of The Grassy Creek And Saverton Formations, Dirk Pieter Van Duym

Masters Theses

"A study of the mineralogy of the Grassy Creek and Saverton formations of Northeast Missouri was undertaken to determine whether a division is justified, as proposed by some stratigraphers, of these argillaceous beds into two formations. The formations were sampled systematically at surface exposures on the northeast limb of the Lincoln Arch in the vicinity of Hannibal and Louisiana, Missouri. The samples were investigated mineralogically in the laboratory. Previous studies showed that the fossils of the Grassy Creek and Saverton beds were virtually identical. The present study demonstrates that the Grassy Creek and Saverton beds are too near alike in …

A Model For X-Ray Scattering From A Free-Volume Liquid, Charles A. Hewett

Masters Theses

"Investigation of the diffraction of x-rays by liquids was begun soon after the well-known work of Friedrich, Knipping, and Laue proved to be of value in supplying information as to the arrangement of atoms in crystalline matter. Friedrich in 1913 reported x-ray diffraction patterns of Canadian Balsam, paraffin, and amber; three years later Debye and Scherrer, in their work on benzene, (among other liquids investigated) showed that the diffraction phenomenon exhibited was one of interference. Still later, in 1922, Keesom and de Smedt reported similar investigations carried out on argon, nitrogen, and oxygen in the liquid state, the results of …

Early History Of Millard County And Its Latter-Day Saint Settlers, 1851-1912, Ladd R. Cropper

Theses and Dissertations

Millard County, Utah is located one hundred and fifty miles south of Salt Lake City in the west central part of the state. The county is bounded on the north by Juab County, on the west by Nevada, on the south by Beaver County, and on the east by Sevie, Sanpete, and Juab Counties.

There are interesting formations of extinct volcanoes. Fossils can be found and well marked evidences of an ancient lake named Bonneville.

A short account of the early explorer, Father Escalante, is given in the thesis. This tells of his travels in Millard County in the year …
