Hypertension (HTN) is a major risk factor for the development of heart disease, which is the number one cause of death in the United States (U.S.). The Affordable Care Act of 2010 (ACA) led to a significant increase in emergency department (ED...
Examining bidirectional associations between momentary impulsivity, alcohol consumption, and daily life contexts
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI--COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Longitudinal, cross sectional, and laboratory studies have examined the relationships between impulsivity and alcohol use. However, most studies so far have...
Hydrodynamic characteristics and capillary-assisted heat transfer enhancement of non-condensing/condensing two-phase flows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Interfacial characteristics of two-phase flows were studied through visualization experiments and numerical simulation using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) based on the volume-of-fluid (VOF)-continuum surface force (CSF) method...
Northern bobwhite brood ecology and population dynamics in southwest Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) have experienced widespread, long-term population declines. Bobwhite populations in Missouri have declined 2.7% annually between 1966 and 2015, and 3.5% annually between 2005 and 2015, for a cumulative loss...
The ecology of organizational forms in local and regional food systems: exploring the scaling-up challenge via a species concept
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Over the past 30 years, Western nations have developed alternative systems for exchanging agrofood products which incorporate social values into the transactional environment. These systems are comprised of many different ...
Anisotropy and mantle flow of the Indo-Burma subduction zone from shear wave splitting and shear wave splitting tomography
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
The Indo-Burma subduction zone lies on the eastern boundary of the 1500 km long Alpine-Himalayan orogenic belt. Despite highly oblique plate motion with limited arc development, convergence is still ongoing with the potential ...
