A history of field crops, 1870-1967, in the University of Missouri
(College of Agriculture, University of Missouri-Columbia,, 1988)
The culture wars & political polarization in perspective : why polarization and its perturbations are a persistant [i.e., persistent] puzzle in political science
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
and GSS cumulative data from 1970 - 2008 on several prominent social issues such as abortion, women's equality, affirmative action, and non-social issues such as government jobs programs and defense spending. I examine public opinion polarization as well...
Studies of ruminant digestion, ecology, and evolution
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
. In one analysis, we showed the relative feed value system did not explain variation in these parameter estimates, underscoring a biological limitation of this system. In a subsequent analysis, we found that ruminal digestibility estimated from mean...
Simulating prehistoric population dynamics and adaptive behavioral responses to the environment in Long House Valley and Black Mesa, Arizona
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
This project contributes to our understanding of human adaptability to environmental stress and climate change in Long House Valley and Black Mesa, Arizona from AD 800-1350. This was accomplished through the development of a series of agentbased...
Lifestyle treatment in the regression of NASH: insulin resistance, lipid synthesis, and methodological innovation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
content which was related to total liver CER only in these animals. Plasma CER concentrations were measured in subjects with advanced NASH before and after a nine-month lifestyle program (and a standard care group) and the change in 16:0 CER was negatively...
Middle and late woodland period cultural transmission, residential mobility, and aggregation in the deep South
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
of population dynamics, intergroup cultural transmission (i.e., interaction) is inferred from changes in intra-assemblage ceramic decorative diversity and interassemblage ceramic distance across a 1000-year ceramic sequence. Two periods, ca. A.D. 200-370 and ca...
Specific bio-modeling and analysis techniques at cellular and systems level
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
focuses on mathematical models at the systems level. Specifically, thermal physiology models of the entire human body are developed using statistical and black box (artificial neural network, ANN) techniques.The MU 2-D Man, a human thermal model has been...
The impact analysis of structural change in Korean agriculture with respect to the Korean-United States free trade agreement : dynamic simultaneous equation model approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
FTA under the current circumstances, KASMO (Korea Agricultural Simulation Model) was built by FAPRI-MU and KREI in September 2008. KASMO is a large-scale dynamic simultaneous equation model that contains sixty-seven commodities, macroeconomic indices...
An economic analysis of the agricultural development potential for Southern Honduras
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1975)
The study was conducted in the Valle and Choluteca Districts of Southern Honduras in 1974. The objectives of the study were (1) to identify input-output relationships for selected crops; (2) determine current and potential ...
