Effects of prescribed fire on forest soil properties in the Ozark Highlands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
soil bulk density was measured at the 0-10, 10-20, and 20-30 cm depths before fire, and bulk density at the 0-10 cm depth was re-sampled two years post-burn. There was no change in bulk density of the whole soil and the fine soil fraction. Mineral soil...
Impacts of municipal wastewater effluent on seed banks, chemistry, and microorganisms of soils excavated from wetland impoundments designated for wildlife
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
To evaluate the effects of municipal wastewater effluent (WWE) and Missouri River water (MOR) as irrigation sources on soil chemistry, seed banks, and microorganisms, a field study was conducted in conjunction with a set ...
Variability of soil hydraulic properties and estimation of plant-available water on claypan-soil landscapes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
and landscape position, intact soil core samples (76 by 76 mm) were taken from the 0- to 10-, 10- to 20-, and 20- to 30-cm soil depths. For objective 2, soil profile samples were taken at 18 to 19 locations from each of two close-by fields and PAW capacity...
Streambank erosion and risk assessment of contaminant transport in Missouri watersheds
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Sedimentation and herbicide are significant water quality concerns in claypan watersheds. Two separate watershed-scale studies were conducted in the Central Claypan Region of northeastern Missouri. One project investigated ...
Polyacrylamide amendment for erosion and runoff control on soils of differing characteristics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
The use of anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) as a soil amendment is an emerging conservation practice. However, guidelines have not been developed with considerations of soil properties and topographic characteristics. The ...
