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...
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...
Geostatistical analysis of land use/land cover changes and population growth trends in the Komadugu-Yobe River Basin in Nigeria
(University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2012-06-14)
The Komadugu-Yobe River located in northeastern Nigeria is an important tributary of Lake Chad. Since the 1970s, the Komadugu-Yobe basin has experienced significant changes in population density and land use/land cover. ...
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.
Plant community response during establishment of woodland silvopasture in the Missouri Ozarks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Disturbance-mediated oak (Quercus spp.) woodlands were formerly a prevalent community type in Missouri, and their restoration is a key objective of land management agencies and conservation organizations. Over one-third of wooded land in Missouri (2...
Biomineralizers from the proterozoic to today : assessing taxonomy and paleoecology through the lens of taphonomy
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The onset of metazoan predation is presumed to have triggered an evolutionary arms race of prey defenses, including the advent of biomineralization. Escalating biological...
Urban runoff simulation and prediction: How do land use and land cover change patterning and geospatial data quality impact model outcome?
(2020)
With the increase in global urbanization, satellite imagery and other types of geospatial data have been extensively used in urban landscape change research, which includes environmental modeling in order to assess the ...
