An in depth evaluation of internal criteria for determining the number of clusters in a data set
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Clustering procedures partition data sets into groups, minimizing the distance within clusters while maximizing the distance between clusters. Clustering can be a powerful tool...
Assessing the capacity for collaborative ecosystem stewardship on private forestland in the Missouri Ozarks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Missouri's forestland totals nearly 15 million acres and a vast majority of this area, roughly 82 percent, is controlled by more than 300 thousand nonindustrial private forest (NIPF) owners. Consequently, meaningful long-term stewardship...
Temperature trends of the Late Cambrian through the Middle Ordovician : implications for Ordovician climate and biodiversification
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The Ordovician Period includes both the largest and longest period of sustained biodiversification--the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event (GOBE)--and the second...

The Smith's Fork (23CL223) archaeological site, located in Clay County, Missouri was investigated using pedestrian survey, ground penetrating radar, shovel testing, archaeological excavations and a geologic study of river terraces. Used in concert...
Using the monthly classification of global SSTs and 500 HPA height to predict temperature and precipitation regimes one to two season in advance for the Mid-Mississippi Region
(National Weather Association, 2008-07)
the forecasts against climatology. The results show that these forecasts have been better than climatology, in general, especially in the summer season and for seasonal temperature forecasts. The research results used here have demonstrated that Pacific region...

Maintaining cross-domain objects and features in working memory : implications for storage in models of working memory
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
A great deal of evidence, both from behavioral studies of cross-domain interference and from neuroimaging, suggests the need for a domain-general store in models of working memory. Baddeley included such a store in an updated version...
A bayesian investigation into inhibition mechanisms of contrast and assimilation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The ability to inhibit distractors within an environment while focusing on specific information is crucial to proper functioning. In most inhibition tasks, such as Stroop, the to...
