    [Stanford, CA : Stanford University, Graduate School of Business, [2013]

    The disc contains two videos. In the first video, Tribute to William J Patterson, people associated with William J. Patterson throughout his life share their memories and talk about Patterson’s achievements and legacy. The second video is the recording of dedication of the William J. Patterson building on Knight Management Center campus. The ceremony took place on March 12, 2013. Welcome address by the Dean, Garth Saloner; speakers George Cogan, MBA 1989, and Sandy Dean, MBA 1990. The closing speech by William’s oldest son Will Patterson.

  2. Average Annual Precipitation: California, 1961-1990 (4km)

    Daly, Chris
    Monterey, CA, US : California. Department of Fish and Game. Marine Resources Region, 2007

    This raster dataset incorporates a conceptual framework that uniquely addresses the spatial scale and pattern of orographic precipitation. The original PRISM dataset covered the United States. This is a California-only version subsetted from the original data set and converted to California Teale Albers NAD83 using bilinear interpolation by the California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) at 2.5 arc-minutes resolution (approximately 4km). Care should be taken in estimating precipitation values at any single point on the map. Precipitation estimated for each grid cell is an average over the entire area of that cell; thus, point precipitation can be estimated at a spatial precision no better than half the resolution of a cell. Accuracy of this data set is based on the original specification of the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) 1 degree digital elevation models (DEMs). The stated accuracy of the original DEMs is 130m circular error with 90% probability.The Parameter-elevation Regressions on Independent Slopes Model (PRISM) Climate Group works on a range of projects, some of which support the development of spatial climate datasets. These PRISM datasets provide estimates of the basic climate element of precipitation (ppt), or the daily total precipitation averaged over a year for both rain and melted snow. These datasets are modeled with PRISM using a digital elevation model (DEM) as the predictor grid and provide baselines describing average annual precipitation between 1961 and 1990 to be used for display and/or analyses requiring spatially distributed annual precipitation.
