Development of implementation methods of water quality trading policy : using the Hydrological simulation program-Fortran (HSPF)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
between different locations within a watershed, as long as water quality standards are not violated along the stream. Many pilot programs and projects have generated useful information on how to implement water quality trading, but the number of actual...
Development and application of vegetative buffer width modeling using geographic information systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
of performance could potentially require wider or narrower buffer widths in order to meet certain stormwater management criteria. This method was successfully demonstrated within the LaBarque Creek watershed located southwest of St. Louis, Missouri for three...
Characterization of disinfection by-product precursors from Missouri streams
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
spectroscopy were used to characterize NOM from thirty eight Missouri state streams, and the relationship with the THM and HAA formation potentials was investigated. The samples that were collected during the months of March, June and Sept-October of 2006 were...
Field performance of instrumentation for monitoring effects of timber harvesting on water quality
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
in the Missouri Ozarks. The concept of a threshold event is introduced and defined as the amount of precipitation necessary under a specific set of environmental conditions to create collectable flow in the ephemeral channels. Precipitation and antecedent soil...
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 of sensitive or rare...
Conservation and allocation of slope in gravity sanitary sewer design
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Gravity sanitary sewers are traditionally designed in a relatively direct route from source to destination after considering property boundary/easement constraints and topographic features. A methodology is presented in this research for considering...
