(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
). This study quantifies landscape factors that contribute to deer vehicle accidents in St. Louis County, Missouri, and provides a predictive model of areas in which DVA's would likely be found. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) was used to plot deer...
A multi-dimensional investigation into the effects of flooding on the physical, chemical and biotic properties of riparian soils
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
flooding. Simulated floods were created under greenhouse and field laboratory settings to assess these changes as well as the effect of soil chemistry changes on germination and seedling growth. In addition, riparian forests in northwest Missouri were...

(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Matrix population analysis was used to analyze eight years of demographic data from six American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.) populations in east-central Missouri to examine effects of herbivory by white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus Zimm...
Woody species and forest structure in northern Missouri riparian forests with different ages and watershed sites
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
A chronosequence (1 to 250+ years) of 160 woody species plots was established throughout northern Missouri riparian forests to explain the influence of site hydrology and stand age on species distribution and forest structure. Stand age was found...
