Development of implementation methods of water quality trading policy : using the Hydrological simulation program-Fortran (HSPF)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
-fortran (HSPF) was used to estimate the hydrology and sediment loading throughout the Brush Creek, MO watershed for future land use development scenarios between upstream and downstream locations. Brush Creek does not have a proper monitoring station...
Knowledge discovery and data mining from freeway section traffic data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Archived traffic-generated data (traffic flow, accident, work-zone, and weather data) from PR-18 in San Juan was examined by means of association mining and the KDD process. A total of six studies were developed and studied ...
Pre-harvest water quality of ephemeral streams in Missouri Ozark forests
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) developed a best management practice that leaves a riparian buffer next to streams to reduce the possibility of water quality degradation. The purpose of this study is to quantify water quality in upland...
An evaluation of pre- and post-timber harvest water quality in low-order streams in the Missouri Ozarks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Missouri Department of Conservation's (MDC) best management practices (BMPs) for Regenerative Oak Clear Cutting (ROCC) practice was evaluated on effectiveness to preserve downstream water quality. Fifteen sites, located on MDC lands in Shannon...
Laboratory load tests of side shear for axially loaded piles
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Results from the laboratory testing program suggest that HPX-piles have approximately 10 percent greater side shear capacity than conventional HP-piles, on average. Unit side shear and the side shear parameter [beta] for ...
Tensile strength, shear strength, and effective stress for unsaturated sand
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
It is generally accepted in geotechnical engineering that non-cohesive materials such as sands exhibit no or negligible tensile strength. However, there is significant evidence that interparticle forces arising from capillary ...
Monitoring of an urban level spreader as part of the collaborative adaptive management process
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Irregular flows, such as the high flows caused by stormwater runoff after a rain event are a major cause of stream impairment in urbanized watersheds. The Hinkson Creek CAM (Collaborative Adaptive Management) approach is ...
GIS-based, python modeling of the spatial and temporal distribution of water on the landscape for wetlands decision making
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Wetlands provide many benefits for humans and the natural environment, but land use changes have reduced their number and areal extent. Interest has grown in examining surface water distribution both spatially and temporally, ...
