In the summer of 2003, I will be interning for Applied Data Consultants. Interestingly, I obtained my internship by directly calling ADC and asking if I could submit my credentials. To my surprise, I got a phone interview and, later, a paying summer position My duties will involve helping out on a variety of projects for ADC's clients. Hi, I'm Katie Kruger. I will be working as a paid intern for the Nebraska Department of Roads during the summer of 2003. My duties will include remapping the Lincoln city limits, plotting new roads on maps of various Nebraska cities, and creating a database of information regarding highway intersections. Finding an internship was a challenge but, in the long run, will be worth it. Hi, I'm Matt Tobias. I work as an intern in the Fiber Optics Department for South Sioux City, Nebraska. I am learning about GPS technology and how to integrate it with ArcView 8.1 in order to map the utility system in the Greater South Sioux City area. So far my internship has been a wonderful experience that I have enjoyed tremendously. Hi, I'm Curt Becker.

Hotels in Nebraska Ainsworth Farmington Morrill South Sioux City ... Sidney Nebraska - Geography Great Plains state of the central United States. It is bordered by Iowa and Missouri, across the Missouri R. (E), Kansas (S), Colorado (SW), Wyoming (NW), and South Dakota (N). Nebraska is roughly rectangular, except in the northeast and the east where the border is formed by the irregular course of the Missouri River and in the southwest where the state of Colorado cuts out a squared corner. The land rises more or less gradually from 840 ft (256 m) in the east to 5,300 ft (1,615 m) in the west. The great but shallow Platte River, formed in W Nebraska by the junction of the North Platte and the South Platte, flows across the state from west to east to join the Missouri S of Omaha. The Platte and the Missouri, together with their tributaries, give Nebraska all-important water sources that are essential to farming in this agrarian state. Underground water sources are also widely used for irrigation. The river valleys have long provided routes westward, and today the transcontinental railroads and highways follow the valleys. To the west and northwest the Sand Hills of Nebraska fan out, their wind-eroded contours now more or less stabilized by grass coverage. Cattle graze on the slopes and tablelands, protected in the severe winters by the sand bluffs and the valleys. The climate is severely continental throughout Nebraska; a low of -40° F (-40° C) in the winter is not unusual, and during the short intense summers temperatures may easily reach 110° F (43° C). Rainfall is almost twice as heavy in the east as in the west. Yet in the west along the river valleys the mixture of silt and sand is watered enough to yield abundantly to cultivation, even under semiarid conditions. In the far west the land rises to the foothills of the Rocky Mts. and displays spectacular bedrock foundations.

Advanced Search/Archive Thursday June 10, 2004 USINFO Publications An Outline of American Geography MAP CHAPTER 11 THE GREAT PLAINS AND PRAIRIES T he historian Walter Prescott Webb, in his book The Great Plains , suggested that the northwest Europeans who settled much of the United States faced three great "environmental encounters"areas where climatic conditions were so unlike those of their home region that the agricultural crops and settlement patterns developed in Europe were inappropriate. The first of these encounters was with the high summer temperatures and humidity levels of the Southeast. The second was the arid Southwest and interior West. The third was the great continuous grasslands located astride the center of the country ( Map 10 Among the problems on the grasslands, average annual precipitation was much less than in the East, although violent storms accompanied by high winds, hail, and tornadoes were common. Blizzards with wintry blasts intensifying the cold drove the snow into immense drifts. The hot, dry winds of summer parched the soil and sometimes carried it away in great billowing clouds of dust. The region's sparse natural water supply would not support tree vegetation except along the stream courses. Many of these streams were small and flowed only intermittently. Eastern farmers, accustomed to a plentiful supply of water for crops and animals, as well as ample wood for building, fencing, and heating, had to adapt to quite different conditions in their attempts to settle the Great Plains.
