Historical tax receipts 1950-1984
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1984)
This report presents the compiled data from the tax receipts of Missouri residents between the years 1950 and 1984.
Characterization of runoff and infiltration from no-till soybeans with selected winter cover crops
(1986)
The influence of "living mulch" winter cover crops on soil loss, runoff amount and quality and soybean growth was studied at the Midwest Claypan Experimental runoff plots located on Mexico silt loam (Udollic Ochraqualf). ...
Ferrate ion, FeO42-, as a Cl2 and MnO4- replacement in water purification
(1986)
A method has been devised by which solid samples of K2FeO4 can be stabilized with respect to decomposition through a double-mixed salt with inexpensive K2SO4. This solid solution is stable over a wide range of compositions ...
Evaluation of an on-site sewage disposal system at the Lake of the Ozarks
(1986)
An aeration device - conventional soil disposal field system was monitored for one year in the Lake of the Ozarks area to assess its treatment efficiency and effect on the water quality of the immediate area. The aeration ...
Kinetics of chlorine depletion and microbial growth in household plumbing systems
(1987)
To date, the microbial ecology of water treatment and distribution systems has never been systematically explored. Despite chronic problems with microbial growths in water distribution systems, the waterworks literature ...
Organic groundwater contamination evaluation and prediction
(1983)
Adsorption of two organic compounds, Trichloroethylene (TCE) and Pentachlorophenol (PCP), on several Missouri soils were determined. The soils used were of the Coppock, Parsons, Putnam, Grundy and Lebanon series. TCE ...
The evaluation of a synthetic material for use as a wave protection agent on irrigation dams
(1980)
This report presents the results of a field and laboratory testing program to evaluate the performance of a slope protection method utilizing a new synthetic fabric material in the form of soil filled bags. The field study ...
Characterization, renovation, and utilization of water from slurry transport systems
(1982)
The transportation of a number of commodities as water slurries in pipelines offers a number of advantages which will make this method of transport more popular in coming years. Among the formeost of these advantages are ...
Sorption incineration of chlorinated hydrocarbons, acid, heavy metals, and excess nutrients in water using cool-derived solids
(1982)
The basic objective of the research was the development of systems for the sorption and incineration of water pollutants based upon solid phases derived from coal. The research was designed within the context of an overall ...
High speed liquid chromatography as an environmental monitor of non-volatile organic pollutants in water: in retrospect--a new perspective
(1980)
The project studied the drinking water in Columbia, Missouri and vicinities. The emphasis was put on nonvolatile organic pollutants. The fate of these organic pollutants upon chlorination was elucidated. The local drinking ...
Optimum water use in fruit crop production
(1982)
Adequate supplies of soil water are essential for optimum growth of most fruit crops. If rainfall does not provide adequate and uniform moisture throughout the growing season, irrigation is required. The amount of additional ...
Field evaluation and model calibration for agricultural pesticide transport to groundwater - phase II
(1989)
Certain soil physical and chemical property data are needed to predict transport of agricultural chemicals (pesticides, herbicides, etc.) to groundwater. The objective of this investigation was to evaluate the soil variability ...
Macropore effects on pesticides transport to groundwater
(1988)
The objective of this investigation was to evaluate the leaching and degradation characteristics of atrazine and bromide in a field of alluvial soils under irrigated, no-till management. The experimental site was 0.1 ha ...
Study of cropping effects on soil properties related to water infiltration, runoff and soil loss using simple laboratory methods
(1985)
The influence of 'living mulch' winter cover crops on soil loss, runoff amount and quality and soybean growth was studied at the Midwest Claypan Experimental runoff plots located on Mexico silt loam (Udollic Ochraqualf). ...
Disposition of polychlorinated dibenzo-p- dioxins from soils to the aquatic environment
(1985)
The contamination of many sites in Missouri with 2, 3, 7, 8 tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is without doubt the single most publicized and pressing environmental issue in Missouri. This contamination is centered around ...
Effects of sodium hydroxide solutions on the permeability of magnesium clays
(1985)
Definition of the Problem - Disposal of hazardous wastes is limited to three basic methods. The waste can be chemically treated to make it less hazardous, it can be incinerated, or it can be pennanently buried in a landfill. ...
Chlordane movement during rainfall
(1988)
Indoor rainfall simulation experiments were conducted to quantify the mass of technical chlordane leaving an experimental soil box in runoff, splash and leachate. The initial mass of technical chlordane was uniformly ...
Field evaluation of termiticide movement - phase II
(1989)
In recent years, chlordane has been found in fish in Missouri at high levels. The Missouri Department of Health has issued advisories against fish consumption in a number of lakes and rivers because of chlordane contamination, ...
Degrading sludge with cellulase complex
(1989)
The ability of indigenous and commercial cellulase complexes to degrade native and pretreated sludge was evaluated. Indigenous enzyme was produced in our laboratory, where as commercial cellulase was purchased from a ...
