Shelley for more reasons than this book could ever hold. To those that have gone unmentioned by name, my appreciation is no less, but the list too long. Lastly, I wish to acknowledge the people that made this work possible: the crew of the mobile lab; Leo for the MOUDI program; the secretaries in room 357-your adopted son is finally leaving the nest; Ryan and Wes for a good game of frisbee and football; Dan for inspiring me to finish my thesis; Drs. Clark and Morris for serving on my committee. With this, my six years at West Virginia University come to a close. Through them all, I can now say that I have seen the "garlic and sapphires in the mud." v TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE ABSTRACT……………………………………………………………………….. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS …………………………………………………………. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS …………………………………………………………… v LIST OF TABLES ………………………………………………………………… vii LIST OF FIGURES ………………………………………………………………...
