(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
This investigation presents an analysis of groundwater vulnerability in three mid-Missouri counties that represent an agricultural production region that is physiographically and hydrogeologically complex. The goals of ...
Land cover changes (1815 to 2007) in the central Missouri River Hills
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
The legacy of land use can influence landscape dynamics for centuries, potentially altering subsequent plant species composition, nutrient cycling and hydrology. To understand how previous land use has affected landscape ...

(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
The Dalat Plateau is one of several biodiversity hotspots in Vietnam. It is considered to be one of five centers of plant diversity and one of three endemic bird areas in the country. Almost half of the conifer species ...
Reconsidering the paleorange of Fagus grandifolia
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
One of the major consequences of forecasted future climate change is the redistribution of plant life due to species migrations and extinctions in response to these changes. This has caused many scientists to look at the ...
A comparison of forest change detection methods and implications for forest management
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
, characterize the structure of forest change patches, and assess contrasting rates of change on public and privately owned forests. This study found that the TCW detected biomass decrease as well as the SWIR/NIR ratio, forest change patch shapes worked well...
Four decades of change in an old-growth beech-maple forest in Indiana
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Hoot Woods is a 6.6 ha old-growth beech-maple forest. Fully censused every decade since 1965, the forest is one of the most intensively monitored permanent plot stands in the eastern deciduous forest. Although it is set ...
A test of differential GPS correction methods at Fort Huachuca, Arizona
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
High accuracy GPS using inexpensive field equipment is increasingly made possible through use of reference data provided by the (CORS) network. There are currently three CORS within 100km of Fort Huachuca, Arizona, but use ...
