Alternative Bayesian Estimators for Vector-Autoregressive Models
(Department of Economics, 2002)
This paper compares frequentist risks of several Bayesian estimators of the VAR lag parameters and covariance matrix under alternative priors. With the constant prior on the VAR lag parameters, the asymmetric LINEX estimator ...
Missouri crop performance, 2015 : corn
(University of Missouri. Agriculture Experiment Station, 2015)
"Each year, the best seed companies and organizations select several of their best hybrids for evaluation by the MU Variety Testing Program. We use the latest scientific principles and procedures to provide farmers and ...
Sequential partial adaptation of state transition matrices
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1971)
"The problem of process control has several phases to its solution. The first phase involves finding either experimentally or theoretically a dynamic model which represents the process to be controlled. The second phase ...
Interfacial tension in a binary liquid system
(University of Missouri--Columbia., 1969)
Evaluation of Resistivity Meters for Concrete Quality Assurance, Project TR201414
(2015-07-28)
This research evaluated a series of MoDOT concrete mixtures to verify existing
relationships between surface resistivity (SR), rapid chloride permeability (RCP), chloride ion
diffusion, and the AASHTO penetrability ...
Enhancing the mechanica and durability properties of cement mortars by using alumina nanocoating on carbon nanofibers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
This thesis presents a comparative study on using nanocomposite of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) nanocoating on carbon nanofibers (CNFs) and bare CNFs for enhancing the cement mortars mechanical properties, durability under freeze-thaw conditions...

A-B-C-D regional profile
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division., 1973)
"This region teemed with activity a century ago then lost its zest at the turn of the century. Like many other areas that were so completely wedded to the agricultural economy, this area lost population and stature in the ...
Dynamic spatial-temporal point process models via conditioning
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
We propose and investigate dynamic spatial-temporal point process models for independent and interacting events. The models for independent events are dynamic spatial-temporal Poisson point process (DSTPPP) model that ...
Forest harvest effects on soil chemical properties and nutrient concentrations in Ozark Highland soils
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Mixed hardwood systems of the Missouri Ozark Forest Ecosystem Project are harvested using clearcutting (CC) and single-tree selection (STS) regeneration methods. This work indicates possible effects of regeneration method ...
A market study of sealed bid competition for Utah public school lunch milk, 1970-1975
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1981)
This study was designed to determine the influence of various economic factors on sealed bid prices and, accordingly, to serve as a guide for setting these factors to obtain a more competitive price. Traditional concepts ...
Farmer Trust in Producer- and Investor-owned Firms: Evidence from Missouri Corn and Soybean Producers
(Agribusiness: An International Journal, 2004-12)
We examine whether cooperatives are characterized by greater trust than investor-owned firms. We survey 2000 Missouri corn and soybean farmers and find that trust and farmer perceptions of honesty and competence are higher ...
Forest adaptation and transition in the eastern united states under climate change : a forest landscape modeling method
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Forest management is rapidly shifting in focus to address the adaptive capacity of forests under uncertain future climates. Managers and researchers often utilize models to proactively develop strategies for forest adaptation ...
