Liming in Missouri in the 20th century
(University of Missouri--Columbia, Agricultural Experiment Station, 2003)
research on liming conducted by the Missouri Agricultural Experiment Station between 1967 and 1999 and related issues ... Recommended improvements in the recommendation program for agricultural liming materials in Missouri--Page 1....

Factors influencing upland oak advance reproduction in the Missouri Ozarks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
in the Missouri Ozarks, we used regression models for estimating the advance reproduction density of red oaks, white oaks, and non-oaks. The abundance of red oak advance reproduction was smaller on northeast-facing slopes and inversely related to soil plant...
Roof Gutters for Dairy Barns (2009)
(University of Missouri Extension, 2009)
Roof gutters may be needed with livestock facilities to divert clean water from contaminated lot runoff and minimize the total quantity of waste effluent requiring proper disposal.
A test of differential GPS correction methods at Fort Huachuca, Arizona
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
in differential correction has previously proven unreliable. The effectiveness of base data acquired through use of a second field unit as an on-site base station was compared with the use of CORS. The accuracy of data differentially corrected using base data...
Impacts of suspended and deposited sediment on benthic invertebrates and fishes in a Missouri Ozark stream
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Sediment is suspected in the decline of sensitive-aquatic organisms in the Osage River basin of Missouri. In this study, I monitored sediment dynamics and evaluated corresponding linkages with benthic invertebrate and fish assemblages as it related...

Quantifying suspended sediment loading in a mid-Missouri urban watershed using laser particle diffraction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
/water-quality stations were installed in a nested-scale watershed study design to capture differing land-use type influences on SSC. Mean SSCs were estimated to be 66.0, 70.0, and 86.0 [mu]l/l for the headwater (agricultural), suburban (mixed land-use), and urban sub...
Establishing pin oak reproduction in bottomland forests in southeastern Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
In pin oak (Quercus palustris Muenchh.) bottomland forests in southeast Missouri, we revisited clearcuts, shelterwood harvests, and controls within the Mingo Basin. Seventeen years later, we found significant changes, in both the change in basal...
Upper White River Watershed Integrated Economic and Environmental Management Project
(Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute (FAPRI) at the University of Missouri-Columbia, 2008-09)
This report outlines enhanced existing local cooperative water quality efforts, sumarizes economic and physical data, and discusses how that information was used to develop analytical models.

Delineation of critical management areas at plot, field, and watershed scales for claypan soils
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
and water quality and given rise to non-point source pollutants. The claypan soil region of Missouri has a high runoff potential that increases the possibility of transport of non-point source pollutants to downstream sites. The Agricultural Policy...
Long-term study of successional trends in an oak-dominated forest of central Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Changes in species composition and forest structure were studied over a 36-year period in the Baskett Research and Education Area (BREA) in central Missouri. Permanent plots were...
What is the impact of livelihood strategies on farmers' climate risk perceptions in the Bolivian highlands?
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
The Andean Highland region in Bolivia possesses a harsh climate environment that is highly variable. This study combines risk perception literature and livelihood strategy literature to examine climate risk perceptions. ...
Climate and land use effects on hydrologic processes and water allocation in a primarily rain-fed, agricultural watershed
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] There is a need to raise our understanding of the impact of climate variability and change on hydrologic processes at the watershed scale. This is important, particularly...
Quantifying riparian canopy energy attenuation and stream temperature using an energy balance approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
of the central U.S. Hydroclimate data were collected from two intensively instrumented stream reaches of opposite orthogonal compass orientation in a semi-karst watershed on the border of southern Missouri's Ozark region, USA, during the 2010 water year. Data...
Intraguild interactions between native and domestic carnivores in central India
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Bustard Sanctuary, Maharashtra, India and assessed resource selection based on landcover characteristics. Indian foxes chose for grassland habitats at the scale of both landscape and home-range level and avoided human-dominated areas such as agricultural...
Economic Vulnerabilities and opportunities of Hispanics in non-metro Missouri
(Cambio Center, 2004)
Non-metro Missouri has observed a net in-migration in the last decennial period and a great part of these immigrants are Latinos. This research addresses the factors explaining vulnerabilities and economic opportunities of Latinos in non...
Atrazine transport through a glacial till aquifer in north-central Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Although the claypan of North Central Missouri is traditionally believed to protect the groundwater from contamination, low concentrations of the herbicide atrazine have been detected in a shallow glacial till aquifer. The fate of the atrazine...
Wildlife response to spatial and temporal changes in forest habitat
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
A common goal in land-management planning is to describe the relationship between management actions, vegetation and wildlife habitat conditions for large landscapes. Achieving this goal can be challenging because ecological ...
