An Exploratory Study of the Standards Movement and ELLs: Teacher Agency and Autonomy in the Age of Accountability
(University of Kansas, 2015-12-31)This study aims to better understand the effects of the standards movement both on ELLs as well as the people who work closely with them on a daily basis, namely regular classroom and ESL teachers. More specifically, it ... -

Design and Challenges of Banking and Foreign Exchange Regulation in India
(2015)In the post-British Raj Era, two hallmarks characterize Indian banking law: financial inclusion and financial liberalization. Indian banking law and policy has emphasized incorporation of the unbanked and under-banked as ... -
Product and international diversification of business groups in China: antecedent or consequence of superior performance?
(University of Kansas, 2014-05-31)Abstract The term business group generally refers to conglomerate firms with multiple majority-owned subsidiaries and minority-owned affiliates, engaged in a diverse array of business activities. A recent stream of literature ... -
A Stochastic Analysis of Pumping Tests in Laterally Nonuniform Media
(American Geophysical Union, 1991-09)Conventional pumping test analysis methodology assumes that aquifer transmissivity is invariant in space. The ramifications of this assumption are examined for hypothetical units whose variations in transmissivity are ... -
A field investigation of phreatophyte-induced fluctuations in the water table
(American Geophysical Union, 2007-02-07)[1] Hydrographs from shallow wells in vegetated riparian zones frequently display a distinctive pattern of diurnal water table fluctuations produced by variations in plant water use. A multisite investigation assessed the ... -
Pumping tests in networks of multilevel sampling wells: Motivation and methodology
(American Geophysical Union, 1999-11)The identification of spatial variations in hydraulic conductivity (K) on a scale of relevance for transport investigations has proven to be a considerable challenge. Recently, a new field method for the estimation of ... -

Importance of a sound hydrologic foundation for assessing the future of the High Plains Aquifer in Kansas
(National Academy of Sciences, 2014-01-27)Steward et al. (1) assess the hydrologic and agricultural future of the High Plains Aquifer. We have many concerns about hydrologic aspects of their study and describe the most significant here. The authors state “…the ... -
Pumping tests in nonuniform aquifers: The radially asymmetric case
(American Geophysical Union, 1993-02)An analytical solution for the case of transient, pumping-induced drawdown in a nonuniform aquifer is presented. The nonuniform aquifer is conceptualized as a uniform matrix into which a disk of anomalous properties has ... -

Hydraulic tests in highly permeable aquifers
(American Geophysical Union, 2004-12-04)[1] A semianalytical solution is presented for a mathematical model describing the flow of groundwater in response to a slug or pumping test in a highly permeable, confined aquifer. This solution, which is appropriate for ... -
Pumping-induced leakage in a bounded aquifer: An example of a scale-invariant phenomenon
(American Geophysical Union, 2003-12-05)[1] A new approach is presented for calculation of the volume of pumping-induced leakage entering an aquifer as a function of time. This approach simplifies the total leakage calculation by extending analytical-based methods ... -
Recent research and development of ground column technologies
(ICE Publishing, 2015-11-01)In recent years, ground columns, such as vibro-concrete columns and geosynthetic-reinforced stone columns, have been increasingly used to support superstructures and embankments when they are constructed on soft foundations. ... -
Benefits of geosynthetic reinforcement in widening of embankments subjected to foundation differential settlement
(Thomas Telford, 2014-10-01)In the present study, physical model tests were conducted to investigate the effect of the geogrid reinforcement on the reduction of the differential settlement in widening of a highway embankment. A water bag filled with ... -
A mixture model of global Internet capacity distributions
(Wiley, 2015-05-13)This article develops a preferential attachment-based mixture model of global Internet bandwidth and investigates it in the context of observed bandwidth distributions between 2002 and 2011. Our longitudinal analysis shows, ... -
International Media Coverage of North Korea: A Study of Journalists and News Reports on the Six-party Nuclear Talks
(Taylor & Francis, 2009-01-01)This study examines what factors influence journalists’ perceived importance of different attributes of North Korea. In particular, this study analyzes the degree to which journalists’ perceived credibility of their sources ...
