The Economic Efficiency Of Inter-Basin Agricultural Water Transfers In Utah: A Mathematical Programming Approach, John E. Keith, Jay C. Andersen, Calvin G. Clyde
Reports
The economic efficiency of water development in Utah, including transfer systems, has seldom been examined, not has the costs of public policies which result in deviations from efficient allocations. In order that public officials be better informed about water allocations, the present effort examines the efficient allocation of water in time frames up to 2020 under several alternative assumtions and calculates that cost of alternative policies. Using mathematical programming techniques, a computer model is developed to determine the supply (marginal cost) and demand (value or marginal product) relationships for agricultural water, given depletions for municipal and industrial (M&I) and wetland …

Computer Simulation Of The Hydrologic And Salinity Flow Systems Within The Bear River Basin, Robert W. Hill, Eugene K. Israelsen, J. Paul Riley
Reports
Accompanying the increased use of water resources is an increases accumulation of chemical pollutants. Te prevent degradation of the water resources beyong useful limits, pollution inputs from additional uses must be quite accurately predicted prior to implementation of the new use. The model described in this report was formulated to provide the required predictive capability for the Bear River Basin. Modeling concepts of the hydrologic system are based upon the development of basin relationships describing the hydrologic processes which are linked together by the countinuity-of-mass principle. The salinity flow system is then linked to the hydrologic system based on the …
Sorption Kinetics Part Ii: Modeling Longitudinal Concentration Profiles In A Packed Bed Reactor, David W. Hendricks
Sorption Kinetics Part Ii: Modeling Longitudinal Concentration Profiles In A Packed Bed Reactor, David W. Hendricks
Reports
A mass balance simulation model for sorption in a packed bed reactor was developed. All of the terms in the model, consisting of constants of the porous media, and functions, were evaluated by independent laboratory studies. The kinetic term was determined in Part I. Two numerical schemes (an explicit scheme and an implicit scheme respectively) with corresponding computer programs were developed and made operational. They were not tested against laboratory column results due to long times necessary on the computer and corresponding high costs. Laboratory testing consisted of measuring column profiles for six different packed columns at different flow rates …

Solving Three-Dimensional Potential Flow Problems By Means Of An Inverse Formulation And Finite Differences, Allen L. Davis, Roland W. Jeppson
Solving Three-Dimensional Potential Flow Problems By Means Of An Inverse Formulation And Finite Differences, Allen L. Davis, Roland W. Jeppson
Reports
A finite difference method is developed to solve the three-dimensional, steady, incompressible, potential flow equations obtained by using a potential function, o, and two mutually orthogonal stream functions, u and u*, to describe the flow. Problems are formulated in an inverse space where the potential function and the two stream functions are the independent variables, and the Cartesian coordinates x, y, and z are the dependent variables. The boundaries of the problem in the physical space, including the free surface, have known positions in the inverse space, so trial and error adjustments to the positions of the boundaries are unnecessary. …

Broad Spectrum Microwave Systems For Remotely Measuring Soil Moisture Content, W. P. Waite, K. R. Cook, B. B. Bryan
Arkansas Water Resources Center Technical Reports
A theoretical and experimental study of the microwave reflectivity of soils with varying moisture content was conducted. A system was developed to measure reflectivity over a continuous frequency range of 4 to 26.5 GHz, at incidence angles from 10° to 70°, and with both horizontal and vertical polarization. The measurements were found to be extremely accurate for smooth homogeneous surfaces, however, the effects of surface roughness were found to be more severe than predicted due to the discontinuous nature of naturally occurring rough surfaces. An algorithm was developed which used the frequency dependence of the reflectivity to estimate the effective …
Mathematical Modeling Of Stream Storage Potential, Hugh M. Jeffus
Mathematical Modeling Of Stream Storage Potential, Hugh M. Jeffus
Arkansas Water Resources Center Technical Reports
Streamflow data from unregulated streams in Arkansas were processed through Moran’s Model for a dam. The process involved calculating a cumulative gamma distribution for each stream as the streamflow values were incremented in units of 0.1 cubic feet per second per square mile of drainage area. This gamma distribution was then used as input for Moran’s Model. The output from Moran's Model includes the probability of the reservoir having zero contents as the size of the reservoir is decreased. The logarithm of the probability of zero contents, 1n PO, versus reservoir size, K, is a straight line of the form …

Distribution Of Trace Elements In Host Rock Limestone In The Tri-State Zinc-Lead District, Dinesh Jashbhai Patel
Masters Theses
"The trace metal contents of limestone in the Tri-State zinc-lead district were determined within a single horizon, the M bed. Ninety-six specimens, collected for a previous study of their petrographic character, were analyzed for zinc, lead, and copper using atomic absorption spectrophotometric techniques.
The unaltered M bed limestone at a distance from ore bodies was found to contain only 12-28 ppm zinc, 40-SO ppm lead and 12 ppm or less copper. Those limestone specimens which were found b earlier petrographic study to be altered principally to sparry calcite commonly contain anomalous amounts of zinc and lead. Some also have slightly …

The Kinetics And Mechanism Of The Reaction Of Chromium(Ii) With Pentaaquodiiodomethyl Chromium(Iii) And Pentaaquomonoiodomethyl Chromium(Iii) Ions., Ronald Sinclair Nohr
University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations
Transition metal ions, in low oxidation states, have gained increasing use as versatile reducing agents for a number of organic compounds. The ability of metal ion to act as reducing agents in organic reactions is frequently thought to be due to the formation of intermediates which contain an organic species bound to a metal, although the identy of these organo-metallic intermediates has been determined in relatively few cases.
The purpose of this research was to investigate the kinetics and mechanism of one such reaction: the reduction of iodoform to methane by chromium(II). Two air stable organochromium(III) intermediates were separated and …

A Comparison Of The Effects Of Aspirin, Sodium Salicylate, And Acetate On Cells In Vitro, Roger Scott Barron
A Comparison Of The Effects Of Aspirin, Sodium Salicylate, And Acetate On Cells In Vitro, Roger Scott Barron
University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations
Salicylic acid and its concern have long been used for the management of pain, fever, and inflammation. Of this group, acetyl-salicylic acid, or aspirin (ASA) has proved to be the most potent in each case. Although hydrolysis, the first step in biotransformation of aspirin takes place very rapidly, many workers feel that the greater effectiveness is due to a unique action of the intact molecule; however, others disagree. In this study, the effects of aspirin and in vitro were compared in order to obtain a greater amount of information relating to the problem.

The Complexes Of Palladium (Ii) And Nickel (Ii) With Cycloalkanecarboxylic Acid, Thaimos E. T. Yeh
University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations
Although some organic hydroxy acid complexes of palladium(II) and nickel(II) have been described (1-9), crystalline palladium(II) and mickel(II) dicycloalkanecarboxylates have not been reported.
The interaction of a palladium salt such as NA2PdCl4 or a nickel salt such as NiCl2·6H2 with cycloalkane carboxylic acids which contain 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 carbons produces deep green carboxylates with palladium(II) and yellowish green carboxylates with nickel(II).
Generalization Of Lie's Counting Theorems For Second And Third Order Ordinary Differential Equations, Suzanne Marie Davison
Generalization Of Lie's Counting Theorems For Second And Third Order Ordinary Differential Equations, Suzanne Marie Davison
University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations
This work concerns two new theorems which count the maximum possible number of independent generators of a certain form which leave an ordinary differential equation of second or third order covariant. Sophus Lic has derived such theorems for a particular class of transformations. The new theorems contain Lic’s theorems as a suboase, and are therefore called ‘generalized” theorems.

Structure And Chemical Composition Of The Otoliths Of Cyprinus Carpio, Larry Paul Coen
Structure And Chemical Composition Of The Otoliths Of Cyprinus Carpio, Larry Paul Coen
Masters Theses
"The need for the study of microfossils such as foraminifera, conodonts, and otoliths as stratigraphic tools has been well established. However, disarticulated parts such as otoliths and conodonts cannot be effectively used unless they can be recognized. Otoliths, although somewhat unrecognized in the geological record, are far more abundant than articulated skeletons (Frizzell, 1965, p. 86). Therefore, much investigation is being conducted to reveal the origin, function, morphology, and usefulness of the otoliths of fishes.
In this investigation, the asteriscus, well developed only in Ostariophysins (of which the carp is a member), is studied for morphology. New tentative terms are …
