The design and construction of this website was part of Kim Reiland's senior capstone project with Dr. Jennifer Birriel. This website will allow for the community of Morehead to participate in projects that explore sundials. Kim graduated in December 2007 with a B.S. in mathematics.
REFERENCES: Kim's note on references used: I have adapted and ammended materials from many resources. I am most grateful for all the authors from whom I have learned so much! In most cases here on this website, the material you see is simply my restatement of the work of others. This list is not meant to be all inclusive but does include the works that most have influenced the development of this website.

Section Pertaining to the Mathematics of Sundials is largely my restatement of the following work: A Simple Expression For
The Equation of Time,
