Evoking landscape practices through ethnographic fiction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
Landscape has long been of central concern to cultural geography. Historically, the conceptualization of landscape rested on discursive binaries of subject-object, culture-nature, and self-other. Recent developments in cultural geography attempt...
Large-scale forest landscape model, design, validation, and application in management of oak decline
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
Forest landscape models (FLMs) have increasingly become important tools for exploring forest landscape changes by predicting forest vegetation dynamics over large spatial scales. However, two challenges confronting FLMs have persisted: how...
Packaging a cultural landscape : a case study of the Papahanaumokuakea world heritage nomination
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)
This thesis research explores the representation, inclusion, and exclusion of Native Hawaiians in the nomination of the Papahanaumokuakea World Heritage Cultural Landscape in Hawai'i, the only cultural landscape and mixed World Heritage site...
Developing the landscape plan (2012)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2012)
To develop an attractive and useful home landscape, use a step-by-step approach. List ideas and notes about the current landscape and desired changes, draw rough sketches to get a general idea of how to design the three major landscape areas...
Historical landscape interactions and patterns of invasion by subterranean termites (Isoptera: Reticulitermes) in subdivisions of different ages
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
. In Missouri, subterranean termite communities differ between undeveloped forested and urban landscapes. Reticulitermes hageni Banks occurs in greater proportions than other subterranean termite species in forested landscapes, while Reticulitermes flavipes...
Residential landscaping (2010)
(University of Missouri Extension, 2010)
Factors affecting abundance, physiology, and fine-scale genetic differentiation of the western slimy salamander (Plethodon albagula)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
Inferring process from pattern can be a challenging undertaking when dealing with ecological complexity. The distribution and abundance of organisms on the landscape is often interpreted through the lens of competition, movement, or physiology...
Modeling post-fire tree mortality using a logistic regression method within a forest landscape model
(MDPI AG, 2019)
Fire is a multi-scale process that is an important component in determining ecosystem age structures and successional trajectories across forested landscapes. In order to address questions regarding fire effects over large spatial scales and long...
Low-maintenance landscaping (2008)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2008)
Few homeowners intentionally install a landscape that requires a great deal of maintenance. However, unless care and planning are used in landscaping, you may find yourself spending more time taking care of the yard than you had hoped. The term 'low...
Bird data : Canada, Vancouver
(Resilience Alliance Inc., 2003)
For birds in urban environments, the configuration of local habitat within the landscape may be as critical as the composition of the local habitat itself. We examined the relative importance of environmental attributes (e.g., tree cover...
& the dynamo
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
The artworks within & The Dynamo combine the visual histories of cartography, landscape painting, infographics and systems based abstraction to evaluate the industrial complexes and infrastructure that make up the contemporary human landscape...
Bat data : Australia, Sydney
(2015)
Bat activity was sampled using the same study design as Threlfall et al. (2011), in 29 randomly selected replicate 5 5 km 'landscapes'. Landscapes were categorized based on the average level of urbanization and vegetation cover of each landscape...
Bird data : Kenya, Nairobi
(Nairobi : Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology, Research Production and Extension Division, 2010)
The landscape structure of Nairobi city is experiencing rapid transformation as once wild and pristine spaces are converted to anthropocentric uses. In order to understand how the changing urban structure affects urban habitats, the seasonal...
He landscapes Missouri's campus

Landscaping your front yard (2006)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2006)
Novel approaches to conserving the viability of regional wildlife populations in response to landscape and climate change
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)
planning is also hampered by uncertainty in how species will respond to conservation actions amidst impacts from landscape and climate change and complicated by the complexities of the planning decisions, including tradeoffs among competing species...
Individual, population and landscape-scale effects of timber harvest on the red-legged salamander (Plethodon shermani)Individual, population and landscape-scale effects of timber harvest on the red-legged salamander (Plethodon shermani)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Habitat loss and alteration are widely recognized as major threats to global biodiversity and the vulnerability of animal species to these disturbance processes can depend on the behavioral responses of individuals to modified landscapes...
Ozark ground flora response to landscape-scale prescribed fire
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)
fire, both at a landscape scale and within ecological communities. The data showed a study-wide recovery from fire, with a shift toward fire-tolerant plant species that are more tolerant of drier conditions. Species richness did not change through time...
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 patterns in the now...
