This collection includes 50 cent, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 dollar bills. All the bills in this collection were printed in Richmond, Virginia, the capital of the Confederacy. They were printed from 1861-1864 and were ...
Irrationality of Power Series for Various Number Theoretic Functions
(2005)
We study formal power series whose coefficients are taken to be a variety of number theoretic functions, such as the Euler, Möbius and divisor functions. We show that these power series are irrational over ℤ [X], and we obtain lower bounds...
Structure and Physical Properties of Hydrogrossular Mineral Series
(2015)
The mineral hydrogrossular series (Ca₃Al₂(SiO4)₃₋ₓ(OH) ₄ₓ; 0 ≤ x ≤ 3) are important water bearing minerals found in the upper and lower part of the Earth’s mantle. They are vital to the planet’s hydrosphere under different hydrothermal conditions...
Mathematics textbooks and state curriculum standards : an analysis of the alignment between the written and intended curricula
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
populous states that use a system of statewide textbook adoption and the five most populous states that are "open territory" comprised the state sample, while two popular elementary (K-6) textbook series and two popular middle grades (6-8) textbook series...
New examples of noncommutative Λ(p) sets
(2003)
In this paper, we introduce a certain combinatorial property Z*(k), which is defined for every integer k ≥ 2, and show that every set E ⊂ Z with the property Z*(k) is necessarily a noncommutative Λ (2k) set. In
particular, ...
Latino Immigration and Meatpacking in the Rural Midwest : An Inventory of Community Impacts and Responses
(Cambio Center, 2002)
This paper discusses Latino immigration to the rural Midwest as one micro effect of the macro process of economic globalization. Impacts of Latino immigrants moving into rural communities, and what communities have done ...
Climate Change for Biotechnology? UK Public Opinion 1991- 2002
(AgBioForum, 2003)
The 1991 2002 Eurobarometer surveys show a steady decline in optimism about biotechnology in the United Kingdom (UK)
through the 1990s. After 1999, there is more optimism and less opposition to agri-food biotechnologies. The paper discusses...

Articulated learning trajectories related to the development of algebraic thinking that follow from patterning concepts in middle grades mathematics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
to characterize the development of patterning and sequence concepts as they relate to algebraic thinking in four middle grades textbook series. The perspectives of clarity, comprehensiveness, accuracy, depth of mathematical inquiry and reasoning, organization...
Crude Oil and Stock Markets: Stability, Instability, and Bubbles
(Department of Economics, 2008)
in the cointegrating and error correction matrices, we find evidence for breaks after 1980:5, 1988:1, and 1999:9. We find a clear long-run relationship between these series for six OECD countries for 1971:1-1980.5 and 1988:2-1999.9, suggesting that stock market indices...
Lanford Wilson Collection
(2020)
of plays. In addition to his works there is also a sizeable series of plays sent to Wilson by his colleagues and friends. There are also files of reviews and promotional clippings for productions of his plays. Correspondence received by and created...
Classification of air pollution regimes in the Missouri region
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
High levels of ground level ozone have been linked to large-scale weather patterns both at the surface and in the upper atmosphere. For this reason, the main focus of this study was to analyze the atmospheric conditions ...
Trust and Distrust in Biotechnology Risk Managers : Insights from the United Kingdom, 1996-2002
(AgBioForum, 2008)
. Using Eurobarometer data we show that public trust in risk managers declined from 1996 to 1999 but rebounded sharply between 1999 and 2002. Using canonical discriminant analysis we find that trust is correlated with knowledge of science, as well...
Globalization and Latino labor: Labor advocates' accounts of meatpacking in rural Missouri
(Cambio Center, 2002)
This paper presents labor advocates' accounts of the common problems faced by Latino/a workers employed in the Missouri meatpacking industry and the potential strategies they identify for addressing them. Information is ...
Scholarly productivity of U.S. LIS faculty
(Library & Information Science Research, 2006)
One aspect of faculty effectiveness can be measured through research productivity, and publication and citation rates can serve as an indicator of that productivity. This study, the fourth in a series to examine LIS faculty and program productivity...
Decadal mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet from satellite radar altimetry and its contribution to global sea level change
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
period of 1992 - 2003. Several techniques are developed to improve the processing and analysis of both low and high resolution elevation change time series. Our research results show that the majority of the East Antarctica interior regions are thickening...
Cohomology of Finite Modules over Short Gorenstein Rings
(2016)
We study two formal power series in the indeterminate t that generalize the
Poincar´e series of a module. In the context of a Gorenstein local ring whose maximal
ideal m satisfies m³ = 0, we prove that these two power ...
