Glacier Change on the Three Sisters Volcanoes, Oregon: 1900-2010Ohlschlager, Justin George 05 August 2015 (has links)
A glacier responds to changes in climate by subsequent retreat and advance as a result of changes in snow inputs and outputs. Understanding these changes is important because shrinking glaciers limit and diminish local water resources. They contribute to alpine runoff in the late-summer months by delaying the maximum runoff until late in the melt season. A comprehensive glacier and perennial snowfield inventory has not been completed for the Three Sisters in Central Oregon. Using aerial photography, Digital Elevation Models (DEMs), previous studies, and historical ground based photographs these glacier and perennial snowfields were defined and their surface area change was quantified along with surface area and volume change for the 15 named glaciers for multiple years. The glaciers and perennial snowfields totaled 9.03 ± 1.65 km2 in 1949 and decreased to 7.1 ± 1.16 km2 in 2003 giving a total loss of -1.914 ± 0.974 km2 ( 21%). The 15 named glaciers totaled 12.43 ± 0.417 km2 in ~1900 and decreased to 5.65 ± 0.135 km2 in 2003 giving a total loss of -6.70 ± 0.439 km2 (54%) with more loss occurring in the early part of the century. It's estimated that the 15 named glaciers lost roughly 61% of volume from 1900 to 2010. From 1957 to 2010 their surface's dropped in elevation on average by -8.9m, losing an estimated 71.96 x 106 ± 2.87 x 106 m3 (53%) in total volume, seen across accumulation and ablation zones, with more loss happening from 1957 to 1990. There was no relationship found between topography and area. A small correlation was found between slope and increased volume change. Debris cover on glacier surfaces has increased and showed a correlation between decreasing area loss (no correlation with volume changes).

Evolving female participation in Egypt's Muslim BrotherhoodFarag, Mona Kamal January 2013 (has links)
This research effort will analyze the level of female political participation within the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) before and after the January 25 revolution, and whether it has changed with the transformation of Egypt’s political climate, governing system and ruling elite. An assessment of the level of female participation within the MB and its political party will occur to determine which significant factors - such as governing regime, cultural influences, security issues - have attributed to the magnitude and level of the Muslim Sisters’ political exposure and electoral activities. More specifically, this research aims to ascertain if the Muslim Sisters experience their full rights as citizens under the leadership of the MB, and whether the MB’s willingness to nominate women is a step towards achieving equality or ‘complementarity’ within its ranks, or the process of fielding female candidates is nothing more than a “democratic façade.” Or is the issue more deeply rooted within the Egyptian, and predominantly Muslim, state and society, and its social norms and existing political structures? The historical context of post-colonial politics and the crisis of authoritarian secular politics will be reviewed as well, as it has contributed to the phenomenon of reinventing the rigid influence of tradition and religion.

Sibling relationship of adults with intellectual disabilities in ChinaLiang, Luyin, 梁露尹 January 2015 (has links)
Background: Sibling relationship is oneof the most long-lasting family relationships. For adults with intellectual disabilities (AWID), sibling relationship significantly influences their own well-being and those of their brothers or sisters. The positive participation of siblings of AWID in sibling relationships can help predict their expectations on their future care-giving role. Nevertheless, few studies on sibling relationship of AWID exist, particularly in China.
Objectives: This study investigated the sibling relationship experiences of siblings of AWID in China. The study explored how the personal factors of siblings(such as emotional closeness, sense of responsibility, experiences of ID stigma, and expectations of self-reward),familial factors(such as differential treatment of parents),and social–contextual factors(such as availability of support services and policies)determine their two types of motivations, namely, obligatory and discretionary, as well as their contact frequency in their sibling relationships. The study also examined the mediation of the two types of relational motivations of siblings of AWID on the relationship between determinative factors and contact frequency.
Method: The study adopted a quantitative research method. A total of 1,298 siblings of AWID from Guangdong province, China were recruited to complete a self-administered questionnaire. Both stratified and purposive sampling methods were employed. Eight scales were used in the measurements, six of which were adopted from existing scales and modified according to the research objectives and two of which were newly developed. A small-sample validation study was performed to test the reliability and validity of the scales prior to conducting the main study.
Results: All personal, familial, and social–contextual factors have significant correlations with the two types of motivations of siblings of AWID. With the exception of experiences of ID stigma, the measured factors contributed significantly to the contact frequency of siblings of AWID. In the integrated model, their obligatory motivations were also found to mediate the relationships between the different determinative factors and their contact frequency. Differential treatment of parents was the only factor not mediated by the obligatory motivations of siblings of AWID.
Discussion: The findings of this study have enriched knowledge on the antecedents of sibling relationship of AWID in China and have highlighted the mediating roles of obligatory motivations of siblings of AWID in these relationships. The adopted scales have exhibited satisfactory psychometric properties and thus can be used in future studies on sibling relationship and utilized as assessment tools in clinical practices. These findings can also increase understanding of social work practitioners on the needs and strengths of siblings of AWID as well as inspire them to develop effective support systems for these siblings and advocate relevant policy changes. / published_or_final_version / Social Work and Social Administration / Doctoral / Doctor of Philosophy

Growing up with a dwarf sibling: a qualitative study31 March 2009 (has links)
M.A. / Dwarfism is a medical condition of disproportionate short stature and occurs in about one in every 25 000 children born worldwide (Scott, 1996). There are more than 200 types of dwarfism (Wikipedia, 2006), of which the most common form of dwarfism is Achondroplasia occurring in about 80% of all dwarfs (Little People’s Research Fund, 2006). Dwarfism is plagued by negative stereotyping and stigmatisation. There is a paucity of existing research on dwarfism, and in particular it’s associated psychological aspects. Existing literature is largely focused on parents’ reactions towards their dwarf child but it is possible that the negative attention dwarfs receive when in public can directly affect a dwarf’s close relationships, in particular, those with their siblings. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to explore the experiences of non-dwarf siblings growing up with a dwarf sibling. A sibling relationship is an emotional bond or transaction existing between two brothers, two sisters or between a brother and a sister. This relationship can have both positive and negative aspects (Bank & Kahn, 1982) and these can be more profound with the presence of a sibling with a disability (Ferrari & Sussman, 1987). Previous studies of sibling relationships with a disability have found various negative aspects, for example, feelings of isolation, resentment, anger and guilt, as well as an increase of stress in the family (Carpenter, 1997). However, research also suggested positive aspects, including an acceptance of diversity and an appreciation for life and psychological growth (Connors & Stalker, 2003). Therefore, it was thought to be possible that these negative and positive aspects may also hold true for a sibling relationship in which one member is a dwarf.
