: Is anyone here currently at or a graduate of MIT?

And have access to their library?

This is a big ask and I don't even know if you will be able to access it but you might be able to find someone who can.

I am desperately seeking this article

Burke, RW and Stolzenbach KD (1983) Free surface flow through salt marsh grass. Cambridge. Massachusetts: Massachusetts Institute of Technology. MITSG 83-16 252p

and when I say desperately seeking I mean - wow if I could find this is would be completely awesome and back up/dispute my work :)

So if you could help this would be awesome - looks like an internal work that for some reason never got published.

Have you tried contacting the MIT library where the thesis is located?  Here are links to the catalog record and the library itself.

Roz - If you can't get the article through the links kbmum provided, LMK and I'll ask my office mate to look it up for you.

Hey Roz - Did you ever hear back from MIT?

Roz,
  Though I don't go to MIT (...I wish), my school in Virginia participates in a nationwide article loan program.  That is, on request from a student, the library will locate and (try to) obtain any document from any other US university.   If you don't have any other luck, I can get this for you in a few days without any problems. This program is of course free of charge to students, and I could just send you an electronic copy.  I suspect that if you contact MIT directly, they will charge you for the service to obtain the document.  I'll just go ahead and put in a request for the article now.
