Isotope-Inferred Water Balance of Slave River Delta Lakes, NWT, Canada.Clogg-Wright, Kenneth Phillip January 2007 (has links)
The use of the stable isotopes, 18O and 2H, has proven to be a valuable tool in determining the importance of various hydrological controls on the modern water balances of Slave River Delta lakes, NWT, Canada. Samples collected during the 2002 and 2003 field season have shown that delta lakes exhibit highly systematic isotopic variability over the entire delta. The major influences observed to be affecting Slave River Delta lakes include spring snowmelt runoff, flood events from the Slave River, seiche events from Great Slave Lake and thaw season precipitation events. An important component of Slave River Delta lake modern water balances is evaporation, the main controlling factor of water loss in the study lakes, as well as isotopic variability experienced throughout the entire delta during the ice-off season. Flood events from Great Slave Lake and the Slave River play a key role in controlling modern water balances and isotopic compositions of lakes in the delta. Levee height throughout the delta seems to strongly affect local hydrology, with areas having the greatest levee heights also having the most enriched lake water compositions, and areas having the lowest levee heights having the most depleted isotopic signatures. Outer delta and mid-delta lakes experience the greatest amount of flooding during the spring. Lakes that are affected by spring flood events have a more depleted isotopic signature than those lakes in the upper delta. Discrepancies between δ18O- and δ2H-derived E/I ratios have been effectively reconciled by incorporating site-specific information into the mass balance equations, and allowing mixing between Great Slave Lake (GSL) vapour δE, a large body of water adjacent to the delta and advected atmospheric vapour δA. The use of locally derived parameters also ensures a more accurate depiction of local conditions. Good correlation can be observed during July 2003, between mixing of GSL vapour and atmospheric moisture, when the lakes water balances were solely affected by evaporation. The mixing ratios obtained from two of the study lakes suggest that 5 – 16% of ambient atmospheric moisture was derived from Great Slave Lake.

A System Dynamics Approach to Card Slave CrisisSun, Chen-Feng 06 July 2007 (has links)
This study focus on the card slave problem, using Professor J.W.Forrest ¡¥s System Dynamic model to simulate the relationship between Card Holder and Banks, hoping to find a solution to help the slave problem.
This study has the following conclusions.
1. Most Card Slave are made of their own consumption behavior, but this is only half the reason whey they ended up in debts. During the Credit Card promotion war, banks failed their responsibility and provided these card holder enough limit and not enough credit checks, which is another half reason why the problem occurred.
2. In general, Bank wants to maximum their profit by leaving their customers to pay as much revolving interest , for as long as possible. However, they failed to realize that as the time and debt goes by, card holder starts to lose their repaying ability, and this seriously effects the banks revenues when one day they just cant afford to pay anymore, the repaying ability is never consider in the banks credit limit policy, but it is in fact the most significant fact of them all.
3. Therefore it is best for Bank to use System dynamic method to monitor the repaying ability and dynamically adjust the credit limit and other factors to control the customers¡¦ wiliness to use their card.

Bahamian ship graffitiTurner, Grace Sandrena Rosita 17 February 2005 (has links)
The Bahamian archipelago covers over 5,000 square miles of the Atlantic Ocean at the northwestern edge of the Caribbean Sea. In the Age of Sail, from the late 15th to early 20th centuries, these islands were on major sailing routes between the Caribbean, Central America, and Europe. Bahamians developed life-ways using their islands location to their advantage.
Archaeological evidence of the significance of shipping activity is quite lacking. This research aimed to help fill the void by documenting examples of ship graffiti throughout the Bahamas. Examples of ship graffiti were documented with photographs and tracings. The Bahamian examples all date to the 19th and 20th centuries, 100 years later than other examples from the Caribbean and North America. They are also unique in being incised into the stone surfaces of building walls, caves, stones on a hillside, even on a slate fragment. It is possible that ship graffiti were also engraved on wooden surfaces but these have not survived in the archaeological record. Images depict locally-built vessels such as sloops and schooners as well as larger, ocean-going vessels.
Ship graffiti are at sites associated mainly with people of African heritage, another possible social grouping being persons of lower economic status. Graffiti details consistently indicate that the artists were familiar with ship construction and rigging.
This analysis of ship graffiti gives some understanding of the significance of ships and shipping in the Bahamian economy.

Only my revolt is mine : gender and slavery's transnational memoriesDhar, Nandini 01 September 2015 (has links)
This dissertation is a study of how slave rebellions continue to exert a profound political, affective and cultural influence on postcolonial writers. These writers claim histories and memories of such rebellions as strategic allegories, which enable both articulations of contemporary concerns about neocolonial and neoliberal forms of governmentality, as well as the resistances to such. Through an examination of texts by Ghanaian playwright Mohammed Ben Abdallah, Haitian poet and novelist Évelyne Trouillot, Canadian-Caribbean writer Dionne Brand, and Indian writer Amitav Ghosh, I argue that these narratives demonstrate that our present moment of globalized capital and its accompanying forms of expropriation, though seemingly disembodied and all-pervasive, bear suggestive resemblances to the ethical and political questions raised by the global machinery of slavery. Memories of slave rebellions operate as vital forms of oppositional narratives in these texts, providing writers with an imaginary of a foundational class struggle which threatens the existing status quo. While such narrativizations remobilize the cultural memories of earlier radicalisms, they also point out the failures of such radical imaginaries to move beyond a privileging of certain forms of heroic and heteronormative revolutionary black masculinity. By foregrounding women within the spaces of the slave rebellions, these texts de-masculinize the dominant masculinisms of slave rebellion narratives of previous eras. In doing so, they complicate the notion of racialized class struggles as theaters of supremacy between two classes of men, and challenges the reduction of enslaved women into passive allegories of family, community and nation. / text
