Development and application of vegetative buffer width modeling using geographic information systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
It has been widely accepted that vegetative buffers are effective in removing nonpoint source pollutants. However, problems focusing on vegetated buffers studies remain, especially in technical aspects (i.e., how to design ...
Landscape analysis using GIS methodology for the evaluation and prediction of relationships of amphibian health in Missouri wetlands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
A new methodology to quantify wetland health is developed using landscape characteristics for 49 wetlands in northern Missouri and relating them to wetland health. Wetland health was defined in this project as the presence ...
Approaches for comparing the structural characteristics of different representations of transportation systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
.013m and a maxium of 19.682m for the 5,341 covered GPS points. Approximately 94.93% of the total GPS points were on average of 10m from their covering arc, with the remaining 5.07% being on average more than 10m from the covering arc. The average...
Development of implementation methods of water quality trading policy : using the Hydrological simulation program-Fortran (HSPF)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
The recently promulgated water quality trading (WQT) policy is an innovative approach for achieving water quality standards with flexibility and economic efficiency. The policy allows for the trading of point and nonpoint ...
Investigation of smart work zone technologies using mixed simulator and field studies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Safety is the top concern in transportation, especially in work zones, as work zones deviate from regular driving environment and driver behavior is very different. In order to protect workers and create a safer work zone ...
Load and resistance factor design of drilled shafts subjected to lateral loading at service limit state
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Since 2007, the American Association of State Highway Administration Officials (AASHTO) has made utilization of Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) mandatory on all federally-funded new bridge projects (AASHTO, 2007). ...
